No, but the .exe download does not contain the scripts necessary to run it from a command prompt. For those, you need to use the .zip version. The .zip does include a script for installing Tomcat as a service, so that form of the download is the most flexible. You can have two Tomcat services by using different names for each if you need to, but it sounds like you want one service (production) and one from a command prompt (staging). > When I run the "staging" tomcat on port 9090 (production is on 8080), By default, there are two other ports that need changing as well: the shutdown port (8005), and the AJP port (8009). If you're not using AJP to talk to a front end web server, you can just comment out that connector. If you've enabled the HTTPS connector, that also has to be unique. > My thought is that the production tomcat and staging tomcat are trying > to use the same executables and that is causing a problem. The executables are not a problem; they do need to have unique configuration files, though. See RUNNING.txt for a description of how to configure multiple instances of Tomcat running from one installation. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
