Run Tomcat in W2k3 as service
Has anyone successfully set environment variables for the Tomcat process
when it's running as a service?
Is it possible to start the service with the "-security" option, as in
Linux?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure about your tomcat version but under 4.1 the settings may be added in
the registry under:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Apache Tomcat
4.1\Parameters]
add the following keys:
"JVM Option Number 4"="-Xms512m"
"JVM Option Number 5"="-Xms512m"
and modify the jvm options count key:
"JVM Option Count"=dword:00000006

No good.
If anyone comes across the proper options to do this, please post it to
the list.
Thanks.

I have an opportunity to take the site down in a few minutes. I'll
quickly try setting that and post what I find.

Right, I understand that I'll have to restart the service. But is that
the way to get the service to recognize the fact that I want the
security manager running?

I wouldn't think so, these options are called when the service is launched
so you would have to restart the service for this to be picked up.

Referencing your other post, you're saying I can do something like the
following?
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat5.exe //US/Tomcat5 --JvmOptions "-security"
Will that work to get the security manager working while running as a
service?

You may need to reconfigure the service. Have a look to my post from a few
min ago on "*running two instances of tomcat*"
you can also update the service using e.g.
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat5.exe //US//Tomcat5 --Description "My updated
description"

No, I was referring to the login you use to modify service properties.
If you already have admin privileges, then I don't know what's going on.

I'm having the service log on as "tomcat". Are you saying the user
"tomcat" would need to be a power user or greater?
When I'm modifying the service properties, I am doing so with an account
that has admin privileges, but the service itself runs as "tomcat",
which doesn't have any privileges.

I believe you need the permission level which allows you to run as a
service, in order to change one. IIRC, this means either power user or
administrator permissions.

I did try that. However, each time I put something there, it doesn't
stick. When I reopen tomcat5w.exe, the options are no longer there.

You can specify parameters on the various tabs under the servicew app (the
tray monitor). You probably want "Startup" in this case, so it would go
alongside the "start" option.
