You will want to check the customizations (if you made any) in web.xml, server.xml, tomcat-users.xml and anything under conf/Catalina/localhost that you placed there intentionally in the 2003 Tomcat installation. Don't forget to use the same service account, if you created one. You will also want to check the 2003 tomcat7w.exe for any custom options you used there, like memory settings, etc. Leo >> HI Leo Thanks for the reply and info :) Can I just copy the folder/files you mention and put in the new installation on the 2008 server ? As for a service account I have no idea if one exists as this was installed about 5 yrs ago and no one is left in the company that knows anything about it - Hence why I'm on this :) lol Nick
