Re: running two instances of tomcat
installed two
copies of the tomcat code, one running at root, and the other running
as a
regular user. Now, even if the ports were conflicting, it would
prevent
one
instance from being launched, instead of killing another instance,
would
it? At one time when i was playing with it on a testing platform (also
linux), the launching of the 2nd instance of tomcat 5.5 even killed a
running tomcat 4.1.31! It was incredible :P

Is there anything special we need to configure to

That should be it, just make sure yout get _all_ the ports. By
default,
there are three for each Tomcat, one more if you enable SSL. Also,
you
might want to look at RUNNING.txt in the distribution for hints about
running multiple Tomcats with only one copy of the code installed.

Re: running two instances of tomcat
I've tried following the instructions below, and tried using service.bat, but either way I always end up with a small pop-up window with "Application System ..." in the title bar, and it says "NonAlpha 45". Any clue what's going on here? David Nic Daniau wrote: OK here we go. What was said above is true but it's not all about the service, therefore the service.bat script is not enough to resolve the problem. If you read the nsi install script from the source, you can see everything that it does, and the setup of the service is just one thing. The tested procedure which I've used live is as follows: I assume you have installed tomcat under C:\tomcat-x1 with the intention to install C:\tomcat-x2, C:\tomcat-x3, etc.. The service names will be called TomcatX1, TomcatX2, TomcatX3, etc. The Display Names will be "Apache Tomcat #1", "Apache Tomcat #2", etc. And of course the ports will be configurred differently (I use for shutdown: 40051, 40052, etc., for http/1.1: 40801, 40802, etc. for ajp/1.3: 40091, 40092, etc.) First run the following after adapting to your environment: set TOMCAT_NO=1 set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.5.0_03 set CATALINA_HOME=C:\tomcat-x1 As you can see %TOMCAT_NO% is the iterative number I give to the Tomcat install I'm dealing with. Then you can run %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat5.exe //DS//Tomcat5 as the service name is hardcoded "Tomcat5" in the current tomcat dist. Then you're free to run: %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat5.exe //IS//TomcatX%TOMCAT_NO% --DisplayName "Apache Tomcat #%TOMCAT_NO%" --Description "v5.5.16" --LogPath "D:\logs\tomcat-x%TOMCAT_NO%" --Install "%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat5.exe" --Jvm "%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll" --StartPath "%CATALINA_HOME%" --StopPath "%CATALINA_HOME%" --Startup auto --Classpath "%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar" --StartClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StopClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StartParams start --StopParams stop --StartMode jvm --StopMode jvm --JvmOptions "- Dcatalina.home=%CATALINA_HOME%#-Dcatalina.base=%CATALINA_HOME%#-Djava.endorsed.dirs=%CATALINA_HOME%\common\endorsed#-Djava.io.tmpdir=%CATALINA_HOME%\temp#-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager#-Djava.util.logging.config.file=%CATALINA_HOME%\conf\logging.properties" --StdOutput auto --StdError auto (my logs go to a specially created folder on another drive D:/logs/tomcat-x1) This was inspired by the .nsi script, which to my mind is more reliable than the service.bat one. But that's not all. You need to edit the registry: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat\5.5" -> rename it to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat\#1" "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Apache Tomcat 5.5" -> rename it to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Apache Tomcat #1" and change DisplayName value to "Apache Tomcat #1 (remove only)" "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" -> remove entry "ApacheTomcatMonitor" (yes: DELETE, you can always access the monitor with the menu, it's not needed in the tray esp. if you have many tomcats) And lastly, the menu in Program that has been created has also been hardcoded, so change "Start / All Programs / Apache Tomcat 5.5" menu entry to "Apache Tomcat #1"and change the targets for Configure and Monitor (replace ..//Tomcat5 by ..//TomcatX1). Thar's where you can start the monitor for each tomcat if you really want to (IMHO you wont) That's it and it works like a charm! Don't take my word for it have a look into the .nsi script and you will see for yourself there is nothing else. Just a note if you need to unsistall, do a regular uninstallation followed by: - delete registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat\#1" - delete registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Apache Tomcat #1" - remove "Start / All Programs / Apache Tomcat #1" menu entry HTH Nic On 22/03/06, Jim the Standing Bear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Thanks, Chuck.

Re: running two instances of tomcat
Hello Nic, and Thomas, Thank you for taking the time and give out the detailed instructions on how to run two instances of tomcat 5.5 on windows. In the future we will most likely to use a few windows boxes and your instructions will certainly be of great value. Currently, our development platform is still running Linux. We initially thought running the two tomcats there would just as easy as 1-2-3; but it certainly proved to be not quite the case. In any regards, we appreciate everyone's help on this issue. -- Jim On 3/24/06, Thomas Bolding <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > There might definetely be an easier way but I did just that: > > i) installed the exe > ii) unzipped a number of Tomcat into other folders > iii) copied exe and dll into those folders > iv) modified ports for the zipped versions of server.xml and ran > "service install ..." > > The original exe you can either remove or disable its service - I'm > using is as the load balancer whereas the zipped TCs handle the > requests.

RE: running two instances of tomcat
There might definetely be an easier way but I did just that: i) installed the exe ii) unzipped a number of Tomcat into other folders iii) copied exe and dll into those folders iv) modified ports for the zipped versions of server.xml and ran "service install ..." The original exe you can either remove or disable its service - I'm using is as the load balancer whereas the zipped TCs handle the requests. Please note that doing it this way you will have to change the registry settings as the tomcat_home will point to the exe installation.

Re: running two instances of tomcat
That was the case in 4.1 yes, but it doesn't work with 5.5 on Windows platform, because of the way the service is set up from the nsi scrip (that you can read from tomcat source).
