Tomcat 4.0 in Win2000 as service

[Esteban <es...@blue-c.es>]

Hi all,
I have downloaded Tomcat 4.0, and I'd like to know how can i set up like =
version 3.x to work on Windows 2000/NT as service.
In previous version we can use wrapper.properties, but in this versin =
there isn't.

Thank you

I haven't tried this, but, I think you are right, it could be a permissions
problem. Note, by default it uses .keystore in your home directory to store
the certificate. You may want to copy the .keystore file under your Tomcat
directory. Then, in server.xml for the HttpConnector, add a keystoreFile
attribute and specify the path to the .keystore file. Actually, it may not
be a permission problem since it's probably running as System. It probably
just can't find the file, so, you probably need to provide it an explicit
path.

esteban,

the easiest way to do this is to download the .exe version of the tomcat 
4 installer.

http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.exe

choose 'custom install' and check the 'install as nt/w2k/xp service' 
option. this will install tomcat as a service under nt/w2k.there may be 
a manual way to install tomcat as a service, but i haven't run across it.

since enabling a ssl connector, i've been unable to launch tomcat from 
the services applet. this probably has something to do with permissions, 
etc., on the keyfile used. has anyone sucessfully started tomcat as a 
service using ssl?
