Hey folks, Finally i found the one i wanted. Did a google recently and found this: If you are looking for 64 bit amd exe for tomcat here is the solution.
Background To install Tomcat in a 64bit architecture, download the ZIP installer from the Apache web site and unzipped. At this point • Tomcat can be started by using startup.bat or shutdown using shutdown.bat • Tomcat can not be used as a Windows service since Tomcat6.exe and Tomcat6w.exe are intended for 32bit hardware Steps 1) Download from the Apache repository the corresponding version of Tomcat6.exe and Tomcat6w.exe for your platform If your platform is AMD64 (This will work with Intel processors based an AMD64) http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_16/res/procrun/amd64/ If your platform is Itanium, use http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_16/res/procrun/ia64/ 2) Rename/save the existing Tomcat6.exe and Tomcat6w.exe from your %CATALINA_HOME%\bin directory 3) Move the downloaded copies to %CATALINA_HOME%\bin 4) From the command prompt, install Tomcat as a service, running the following command Service.bat install 5) Before Tomcat is started, make sure you have allocated enough memory to Tomcat Double-click Tomcat6w.exe and set the memory sizes required 6) Now you can start Tomcat as a service. You could use any of the following methods: • From Start Settings Control Panel Administrative Tools Services • Use the General tab in the Apache Tomcat Properties window Swapnil.Kale wrote: > > Hi there, > Thanks a lot for this meaningful info. > > I too have a similar requirement: > running the Tomcat on 64 bit OS <Windows server 2003 / 64 bit Xeon 1.6GHz, > 8G RAM> > > I followed the commands below <given in your thread>. > I installed the 64 bit JRE from Sun, Installed 32 bit tomcat. > Edited all the necessary values in the registry for the node "Wow6432Node" > > I copied the 64bit compiled exe from bugzilla <link given by you>. > > However i'm now getting a strange error when i try to run the exe from the > command line or try to run the tomcat from the services.msc. > > <Snapshot> > > C:\Tomcat55\bin>tomcat5.exe > [2007-10-16 17:39:16] [402 prunsrv.c] [error] > The system cannot find the file specified. > [2007-10-16 17:39:16] [1246 prunsrv.c] [error] > Load configuration failed > > C:\Tomcat55\bin>prunsrv.exe > [2007-10-16 17:41:40] [402 prunsrv.c] [error] > The system cannot find the file specified. > [2007-10-16 17:41:40] [1246 prunsrv.c] [error] > Load configuration failed > > C:\Tomcat55\bin>tomcat5.exe.64bit > [2007-10-16 17:41:51] [402 prunsrv.c] [error] > The system cannot find the file specified. > [2007-10-16 17:41:51] [1246 prunsrv.c] [error] > Load configuration failed > > However the tomcat5w.exe <original> runs fine and the service window opens > up.
