Let us assume that an Apache Tomcat instance (Tomcat1) is currently installed as a windows service on an application server that uses port 80. There is a need to launch another Apache Tomcat instance (Tomcat2) as a windows service that uses port 7001.   

The following steps need to be performed:

1. Download the Tomcat deployment package and extract it onto the application server, say C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28 (Tomcat2)
2. Modify the server.xml (Tomcat2) changing the port numbers making sure they do not colliode with the port numbers specified in server.xml (Tomcat1)
3. Create a environment variable CATALINA_HOME2=C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28
4. Modify the Tomcat startup/shutdown scripts to change the CATALINA_HOME to CATALINA_HOME2
5. Install the windows service using the following command:
   

   Tomcat5.exe //IS//Tomcat51 –StartClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap –StopClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap –StartParams “-config;C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\conf\server.xml;start” –StopParams stop –StartMode jvm –StopMode jvm –Startup Manual –Description “Another Tomcat Instance” –DisplayName “Apache Tomcat51″ –JvmOptions “-Dcatalina.home=C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28;-Djava.endorsed.dirs=C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\common\endorsed;-Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28;-Djava.library.path=C:\Program Files\Documentum\shared” –LogPath “C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\logs” –LogPrefix “tomcat51_” –StdOutput “C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\logs\Tomcat51_out.log” –StdError “C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\logs\Tomcat51_err.log” –Jvm “C:\j2sdk1.4.2_05\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll” –JvmSs 256KB –JvmMx 128MB –JvmMs 256MB –JavaHome “C:\j2sdk1.4.2_05\jre” –Classpath “C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\bin\bootstrap.jar;C:\Documentum\config”

6. Install the WDK applications
