Are you sure that you even have a problem?
Yes, certainly i do ... :(
Thanks a lot Mark...that was some excellent stuff there...but see there's
some difference between making a installer for a production level software
or making one for demo purpose...

If this is a POC, why not just walk over to their computers and install

Hi Friends,
I am trying to make an installer for a small Tomcat web application and so
i am planning to include Tomcat in the cd itself. I have read the license
agreement for both Tomcat and JRE and I guess I can do that as long as I

You might want to re-read the JRE license agreement. It used to be that
you needed to force your users to separately
Thanks Chris,
But if I make the users run the JRE installer and install it anywhere they
want to.then how would the Tomcat silent install locate the JRE. The
whole purpose of why I was suggesting to include JRE inside Tomcat was to
resolve this path issue to JRE.

I don't know the details about the installer you are making but if you can
access the registry

Thanks Steve,
My installer is totally ant-based and it does not have the capability to

value instead...i think that would be much easier.

Heh. How are you running ant if you don't know where the JRE is located?
I'm guessing that the JRE is already on the PATH so you might be
good-to-go already.

Tomcat and Ant don't need to be able to fine JRE classes. When the JRE
starts up, it will
