Hi Jeff -- We just got done tackling a 64-bit windows install, and we're writing up a more complete doc, but have a look at this preliminary doc we posted last week: "TOMCAT 5 as a SERVICE under 64-bit WINDOWS": http://faq.serensoft.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=21&id=66 It's not an installer, but it is all the steps we had to complete in order to get the job done. Hope this helps! > I know that it is fairly simple to convert an installed 32-bit Tomcat to > 64-bit: > > 1) Install a 64-bit Java. > 2) Download the 64-bit Procrun executable and replace Tomcat5.exe & > Tomcat5w.exe with them. > 3) Download the 64-bit version of the tcnative-1.dll file and replace > the existing version.
