Installing Tomcat

Tomcat requires java in order to run. If your computer already has java installed. However, make sure you have a recent version of java.

After setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable, you can install tomcat.

1. Go to the Tomcat Web page.
2. Click on Binaries under the Download label on the left side of the page.
3. Scroll down until you see Tomcat 4.1.x. (x will be some number greater than 10).
4. Click on the link ending with exe (e.g. 4.1.27 exe).
5. Download and run the exe file.
6. I suggest you install Tomcat at c:\tomcat4
7. Use the default settings and provide a password that you will remember.
8. now assume that your tomcat are installed at c:\tomcat4

I have some interference thanks to java. Sometimes when I visit sites I have to install and earlier version of java and I am constantly getting head aches from this. Any way around that?

[bigdog]

You can have more than one java running for you on one machine. Just make sure that you arn't removing any of the versions that are used most often and you should be just fine.
