Not necessarily true. I run both 32- and 64-bit versions of the JVM on my Vista 64 box, because some browsers only come in 32-bit versions and therefore need the 32-bit plugin to run applets. > For a 64-bit Vista, we first tried the Service Installer.

To use the tomcat6.exe program that's included with the .zip and .exe downloads, you must associate it with a 32-bit JVM - even on a 64-bit platform. > So we removed the 64-bit Service Installer There is no 64-bit service installer. > To make it work, we had to download 2 additional files > (tomcat5.exe and tomcat5w.exe), rename them respectively > to tomcat6.exe and tomcat6w.exe, and (I think) rerun the > service.bat script. What you downloaded was the 64-bit versions, necessary to run Tomcat as a service with a 64-bit JVM. It should not be necessary to rerun the service.bat script. > We downloaded them from here : > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/connectors/trunk/procrun/bin/ > Oh, and there are 2 versions of each of the above files, depending on > whether your CPU is an Intel-64 or an AMD-64. Not correct. Use the AMD64 version, which applies to current 64-bit chips from both AMD and Intel; the IA64 version is for an older Intel 64-bit architecture which has pretty much been killed off (just not soon enough for those of us that had to use it). - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
