You can have it any which way you wish, e.g. single tomcat in single catalina_home with multiple instances each with own catalina_base, or multiple versions of tomcat each in own catalina_home each with one or more instance each with own catalina_base. You can setup a right mess if you wish... >> I thought sure that the Tomcat Windows Service page of the users' guide, >> but it is /not/ there: >> http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html >> >> I wonder if there are any heavy Microsoft Windows users that could >> offer to write a section on Multiple Tomcat Instances specifically >> with Microsoft Windows Services.

I might be able to have a look at updating the documentation page later, but being as I'm a developer my linguistic skills have never really been approved off so not sure any changes will be approved :-) HTH Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
