Hi there,

Well this just confirms that this doc change is helping more people and the doc should be improved.

I have changed the path but as far as I know, the path is literally irrelevant. If you unzip your tomcat to D:\tmp\, that will be your catalina.home.

Glad this will help someone.

Hi Marek,

thanks for writing this. Wish you'd done it earlier as I had the very same problem about 
two months ago (search for "Tomcat Installation on Windows" in this mailing 
list). My suggestion would be to have CATALINA_HOME reference something like C:\Program 
Files\apache-tomcat-9.0.10 on Windows. That would make it very clear that this is code 
you are not supposed to touch. But I have the feeling that tomcat isn't too strict about 
such a concept and might require you to do so anyway.

Michael


Cheers,

Hi there,

recently, we noticed the lack of documentation for Catalina Base, and
I wanted to find out more about it. Other than a strangely obscure txt
file [1], I did not find the concept and usage of Catalina Base
documented in the Tomcat docs.

My questions are:

1) Did I overlook it being documented somewhere?

2) If not, is there any reason for it not being documented? While I
don't want to duplicate text, I do not consider a txt file somewhere a
sufficient docs.

If the answer to both of my questions is no, we'll create a patch
against the Tomcat docs.
