So it looks like there is an architecture mismatch: tomcat7.exe/procrun is 64-bit and the JVM is 32-bit. We are replacing the JVM with a 64-bit one but I'm curious how to make Tomcat work on a 32-bit JVM on 64-bit Windows. I tried some Google searching and it was mostly people re-configuring the JAVA_HOME to point to a 64-bit JVM and not actually getting this to work. We installed from the ZIP package. Does the ZIP package always have 64-bit tomcat7.exe/procrun packaged with it? Any chance to get 32-bit binaries included as well?
