Hi folks -- Short version: how to get Tomcat5 to run as a service under 64-bit Windows 2003?
Long version: Okay, we've got Tomcat5 running from the command-line within 64-bit Windows 2003 Enterprise (and cannot use tomcat 6/java 6 for our project) -- and now we're working to get it running as a service... We've replaced the original tomcat5.exe and tomcat5w.exe with the ones at http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/connectors/trunk/procrun/bin/amd64/ as directed from http://www.nabble.com/running-tomcat-5.5-as-a-service-on-64bit-windows-td6821449.html And then command line 'service install' appears to work (it shows up in admin tools > services) but the service won't start: it tries for a while (netstat -nab shows it's running for a spell), but it quietly gives up. tomcat/logs/stderr* does contain some text, but there's no catalina.out, and start > admin tools > component services > events doesn't give up any evidence either. Plus, the mofidied/64-bit-savvy tomcat5w.exe which is supposed to set parameters for the service, complains that 'tomcat5' doesn't exist.
