Re: tomcat 3.3 on Win2k server/IIS 5.0

2003-11-06 Thread Bill Barker 
You can get jk_nt_service.exe from
http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-3/bin/win32/i386/ (or substitute
your favorite mirror for www.apache.org).  This is the Windows Service
wrapper that ships with Tomcat 3 (and is the one that is documented in the
Tomcat 3 docs).

You could also use procrun(w) from commons-daemon, but you'd need to write a
wrapper class to invoke Tomcat (actually, that sounds like a good idea:
Then 3.3 could dump jk_nt_service altogether :).

You can set up a scheduled task or install Tomcat as a service.  I'm
pretty sure the Tomcat 3.3 binary on Windows is a service wrapper, so
you can invoke Tomcat.exe and supply the parameters to create a service.
You may need to edit the registry manually to set up classpaths and
other variables your app needs.  Not sure what you mean about Microsoft
and server daemons...I have many Tomcats starting up automatically as
services on many Win2k machines.  Not under IIS, but I think that is
irrelevant, could be wrong.
