RE: Tomcat how to set -Xms and -Xmx
From: Kevin Jenkins [mailto:rak...@jenkinssoftware.com] Subject: Re: Tomcat how to set -Xms and -Xmx I found the answer. In catilina.bat change That's the wrong answer. Such a common operation should not be so obscure and difficult to figure out It's not, but you're doing it the hard way, possibly due to some bad advice earlier. Do not modify startup.bat or catalina.bat; all you need to do is create a setenv.bat file in Tomcat's bin directory, and put the following in it: set CATALINA_OPTS=-Xms2560m -Xmx2560m If setenv.bat exists, it will be called automatically by the startup.bat script. You should use CATALINA_OPTS here, since JAVA_OPTS applies to both the startup and shutdown, and you don't need it on stop Tomcat. Note that the tomcat7w.exe executable is used only when running Tomcat as a service, not when launching it from batch scripts. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

That's completely unnecessary, and inappropriate. The call to setenv.bat is automatic. Do not change the standard startup.bat and catalina.bat scripts. +1 agreed with Charles! You should not need to change the standard startup.bat and catalina.bat scripts, ever. All customizations should be done through options defined in %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\setenv.bat (or %CATALINA_BASE%\bin\setenv.bat) script. The setenv.bat script doesn't exist by default, but catalina.bat checks for existence of the script and calls the script if it exists, see the following section of the default catalina.bat script: --- catalina.bat --- ... rem Get standard environment variables if not exist %CATALINA_BASE%\bin\setenv.bat goto checkSetenvHome call %CATALINA_BASE%\bin\setenv.bat goto setenvDone :checkSetenvHome if exist %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\setenv.bat call %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\setenv.bat :setenvDone ... So, the intention is that you do all customizations are isolated in the 'setenv.bat' script, and they are separated from the standard scripts (startup.bat, shutdown.bat, catalina.bat) - which makes the Tomcat version updates very easy! No back-porting of the catalina.bat or startup.bat to fit your new version of Tomcat. There are two options that you can use to set the JVM memory options: CATALINA_OPTS (for start and run) JAVA_OPTS (for start, stop and run) I suggest you use CATALINA_OPTS for setting up memory, instead of using JAVA_OPTS. The reason is that we are setting Tomcat(Catalina) options, and we don't want to override JAVA_OPTS for some other Java applications. Here's an example setenv.bat script: --- setenv.bat --- ECHO Executing setenv.bat script. ECHO. ECHO. ECHO. SET CATALINA_OPTS=-Xms256M -Xmx512M -- Of course, you can remove first four lines after you have successfully tested your startup script. I would suggest you start your script with catalina.bat run, so you can see the output of the startup command. In the end, startup.bat is really just catalina.bat start. Also, check the process manager and see the actual command line that stared the java.exe process. Hope that helps! Cheers!
