Due to the recently discovered security holes in Tomcat 6 I wanted to update to 6.0.20, downloaded the Windows installer and ran it (after stopping the running service first).

During the install process I'm getting an alert box, saying:

(X) Failed to install Tomcat6 service.
     Check your settings and permissions.
     Ignore and continue anyway (not recommended)?

I continued and after copying back my backed up server.xml and my (own) ROOT webapplication
I could start the service (net start tomcat6) again.

Probably it's just because tomcat6 has not been deinstalled before?

Is there a way to upgrade tomcat6 smoothly under Windows?
