I'm coming round to you way of thinking, but then why is the .exe included in the dist? What's its added value ?Hi,
My reason for preferring the installer over the zip is that - when it works - I can do a faily painless upgrade by uninstalling leaving the webapps etc alone and reinstalling an upgrade version to the same directory. This is not so easy using the zip distribution.
Any help would be appreciated.
It's funny -- I prefer using the .zip versions because I think their
upgrade process is much easier than the services'.
Simply install newIf only ;) And the bits from conf - server.xml bits, tomcat-users, but then they have a habit of getting scrunched by the .exe anyhow !
zip to different $CATALINA_HOME directory, and copy over webapps.
Then I use jk2 for ajp13 redirection from IIS [I have no editorial control over choice of IIS :( ], so I'd have to fiddle with the redirector registry entries and such like,
but actually, you've just given me an idea ...

But really, am I the only sad M$ person who has trouble with the installer? As I said, it never used to be a problem around 5.0.19ish. Any thoughts?
This might have to do with me not trusting the Windows registry as much as I do the filesystem, though ;)
To be sure.
