Hello Charles, this is as I expected, your version is also reading from the wrong (not good located) hive, but since you setup the tomcat using the tomcatXw.exe paired with the right tomcat.exe, everything is fine.
Nevertheless, procrun64 should not use the wow6432 hive, as this is the hive for x32 apps running on x64 (http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/25995/whats-the-wow6432node-under-the-hkey_local_machinesoftware-registry-subkey.html). Do you know which sources to use, which svn to check for the procrun delivered with Tomcat? I would be happy to look after it, as this cannot be a major issue to fix or to implement some behavior that will make all parties happy. Anyway, I would like to file this as a bug to the commons-daemon jira, or is the Tomcat Bugzilla the place to go?

If > both, tomcat5 and tomcat5w read from the wrong hive, there will be no > issue. I'm running Tomcat 6.0.18, but there should be no difference between the service wrappers for the two versions. The Tomcat-related registry entries are in: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apache Software Foundation\Procrun 2.0\Tomcat6\Parameters (Yes, I did download the 64-bit versions of tomcat5*.exe and renamed them to tomcat6*.exe, and I'm running a 64-bit JVM.) Note that changing the logon account via tomcat6w.exe does not work for me on Vista 64; that has to be done by the Windows services snap-in. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
