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?

Thanks,
