I'm not a Windows person, but here's how I did it: 1. Do a normal installation of Tomcat with service.bat service.bat install 2. Start up the Windows monitor service tomcat7w.exe 3. Navigate to the Java tab 4. Select the Java Options: window 5. Add your additional requirements 1 per line: -Djavax.servlet.request.encoding=UTF-8 -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Djava.awt.headless=true 6. Start Tomcat 7. Observe logs in %CATALINA_BASE%\logs tomcat7-stderr.2016-09-01.log INFO: Command line argument: -Djavax.servlet.request.encoding=UTF-8 INFO: Command line argument: -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 INFO: Command line argument: -Djava.awt.headless=true Now you could probably add these with tomcat7 //US//Tomcat7 with the suitable ++JvmOptions arguments, but it looks like it replaces the original ++JvmOptions. That means you'd have to duplicate the original options (see service.bat) as well as add the above three options. tomcat7w.exe seems easier, but if you're doing unattended installations modifying service.bat (or creating your own tomcat7.exe command line) might be easier. See the following: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html as a reference. . . . just my two cents /mde/
