It depends upon how you have everything set up. If you have a mostly default configuration and all your web applications are deployed into Tomcat's webapps/ directory, then you should be able to just copy the whole Tomcat directory from one machine to another. There are a few caveats: 1. If you are switching architectures (e.g. 32-bit to 64-bit, IA64 to x86_64, etc.) and you are using the tcnative library, then you'll have to make sure you place the library that matches your destination architecture into the right place (usually Tomcat's bin/ directory). 2. If you are running Tomcat as a Windows Service, then you'll have to re-register the service on the target machine once you've moved the files over. You can get a lot of mileage out of running the following on the command-line of the destination server: C:\> SET CATALINA_HOME=C:\Path\To\Tomcat C:\> SET CATALINA_BASE=C:\Path\To\Tomcat C:\> %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\service.bat install You might want to run CATALINA_HOME\bin\tomcat6w.exe on the old machine and make sure all your settings are copied-over to the new one. 3. You may have net networking components of services on the destination machine, so make sure you don't have any port conflicts. The easiest way to check for this is to start Tomcat and look at the catalina.out log file in Tomcat's logs/ directory. If it doesn't say anything about not being able to bind to a port, then you should be okay. > Or if you are familiar with this and can assist setting up and > moving could look at that possibility as well You can contact folks off-list if they invite you to do so. I'm not a great resource for Windows deployments, but I'll happily take your money and help you out ;) - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJUWo7CAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYZsMP/jIK+bNJpQ+YFMXXxBkXQloc JZonapaGyQhMx9sfYph/vjMwYhfEIAHktbyHqL962hpzSOfDf5bP11HX5UuJY66V PswNQNXhnyZbPHFVvItjBLv18+UwBClGxzgjjrcQXuzInLmyPdine6gzLxrWmPRL N00qCrKgWQh0bXT3C61xnmMTtj40aRGehZKwH1MiuMHTrnr0Ass5feqzMwO4JEgy u/BKzm8qcg36OCR8dvZ4XSl6TeDcDGakQWai25SXZUnNix/dmfBiMdsLXEBdAsCY LZyyqKj0d1G3iVBqqw1E+4qdKtCv5dXgBNz6qkQFpV9Z2isNGNvSezxympvX8VxD WV8CeYpuSJ5nOW2ukWjpuq+tJw3RF7HvR1uqJpkyQSJ85smc16Vri8H2PudjZN3/ hMyLlTWwEBOotFB4nHaJfSVQ0PfwuZxngk4PWjhi7mhOkSIsKX9FoghtJ/zWJCjR 5X5s2BwaytE9zxlsiyhM/C9cMdW2bxeQ5wbb5ROCrE97V1yvNZRyOvfd4UCE+POd Ora6NHbyh07rQJDmin7nBcYVTtLU9wtEfEvnMJH4/63zWN5xjzmlK0by9eBn9vbE Climj9nyVNquC1rj12bP6bZi57QXrRUUyyc/RPd3WKY/9z45Z94xAtu/Vn/d/4EN FFg8R/OQcTXO3kPQMjJw =22/F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
