Greetings,
I wrote an Inno Setup 6.x script for installing Tomcat 9.x that I think has
some useful improvements over the NSIS installer:
* Supports silent install (/silent, /verysilent), upgrade, of Tomcat on
Windows
* You can configure any of the following using the installer GUI or the

Thanks to permission from the PMC, the initial release of my
alternative Windows installer is available:
https://github.com/Bill-Stewart/ApacheTomcatSetup
I designed this to meet some specific needs in my organization.
Perhaps others might find it useful as well.
Regards,
Bill

Thank you.
FYI: The file tcnative-1.dll is missing from the

For 1:
Use the procrun GUI and change the path to the jvm.dll file.

apache-tomcat-a.b.c-setup.exe /instance="FOO"

Sorry; I don't understand the question. The alternate installer doesn't set
or use the CATALINA_HOME or CATALINA_BASE environment variables; it uses
procrun
/jvmoptions="-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=WINDOWS-ROOT" - tells the Java
instance running Tomcat to trust the Windows certificate store
/jvmms=2048 /jvmmx=2048 - sets the Java memory pool sizes for the service

document the settings: It
automatically stops the service, updates the files, and restarts the
service (preserving all configuration details).

For Windows users, I provided an alternative installer that might work
better for you:

It won't configure everything you're asking for, but it should get you most
of the way there.
The build process could be adjusted to accommodate 8.5, but I would think
9.x would be preferable.
