O.k., you went a bit overboard, but there's no damage; I'd recommend just the Core .zip file for now. The Windows Service Installer will also work, but is a bit more difficult to use for people just getting started or wanting to run multiple Tomcats on the same box. Unlike the .exe download, the .zip lets you install Tomcat wherever you want to, and includes .bat scripts for running Tomcat from a command prompt. You can also install it as a Windows service with the .zip's service.bat script if and when you're ready to do that. Just unzip the download to whatever directory is convenient for you, and keep reading. > I just would like to know how to install them while making > sure I do not cause problems on apache. Not sure what you mean by "cause problems on apache". Do you already have some other version of Tomcat installed? Do you already have httpd running on the system of interest? If there are potential conflicts with existing installations, you will want to edit the conf/server.xml file to change the port numbers to insure the version under test won't bother the current ones. The port numbers of interest are given in the <Server> and <Connector> elements. Find out what ports are in use (netstat will show you), and make sure your test copy of Tomcat doesn't try to use the same ones. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
