Tomcat 6.x for 64 bit OS

Hi,

We are looking for 64 bit Tomcat 6.x version to be run as service on 
Windows Server.  We did find many solutions on the web, but is there any 
"official" version from Apache group?

Filip H put 64-bit 5.5 versions of procrun* here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/connectors/tags/tc5.5.x/TOMCAT_5_5_2
5/procrun/bin/amd64/

(But watch out - the names of the .exe files may be reversed.)

With the 32-bit versions, you could just rename tomcat5*.exe to
tomcat6*.exe and they would function properly with the newer level; the
same is likely true for the 64-bit ones.

Thats right Chuck.  I did find something here.

But I couldn't find anything for Tomcat 6.x

That would be a waste of time, since pure Java programs are completely
platform independent, and, other than the APR connector, Tomcat is pure
Java.

The OP was asking about running Tomcat as a service on a 64-bit Windows
box, which requires a 64-bit version of the launcher (tomcat6.exe) and
service wrapper (tomcat6w.exe); these are not Java programs, and I'm not
sure where to find binary versions.

arfgl... must still have some alcohol in my brains from the last party...

indudhar:

java byte-code is always the same on any platform.

the only thing what you need is a 64-bit-java-runtime.

having this, you can just run the precompiled java-bytecode which
*should* use the 64bit-benefits (like extended memory-alloc)

cheers

Actually - the official Apache solution is to download it from here...

http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi

No need to recompile it.

The official Apache-solution is imho

- get the sources at
http://ftp.hosting-studio.de/pub/linux/apache/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.14/src/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src.zip
- compile it on your 64bit-platform using a 64bit-JDK using the
