Need help in the compatibility for Windows Vista.
Hi,
Thanks in advance.
I have an web application in Tomcat 5.0.18. I am running it on Windows XP
operating system. I am planning to upgrade the OS to Windows Vista. Are
there any known compatibility issues for migrating the Tomcat to Vista??
Please help me in this regard.

Chris,
Thank you for the information. I did proposed for moving it to linux,
and am waiting for management's response. The new machine had Vista, and to
host it on that machine, i wanted to check if there are some issues with it.
This mail did answered my question. Thanks once again.

Just out of curiosity, why are you upgrading from XP to Vista? Is this a
production application? I'm not sure I'd trust Windows Vista as a
production operating system just yet. (Then again, I would never trust
any version of Microsoft Windows as a production operating system, but
that's just me).

Generally, Tomcat doesn't care what the underlying OS is. If you can
find a JVM that is stable on Windows Vista then you should be okay to go.
You will, of course, require tons of testing before you can trust any
new production environment. If you're committed to "upgrading" to Vista,
why not set up a test server and start testing?
