  1. Installing Tomcat on Windows • You may find the Tomcat install shield has some problems recognizing JSDK 1.4 beta installations. • You can nevertheless install Tomcat, using the UNIX style commands suggested earlier, if you have Cygwin running (www.cygwin.com). • Alternatively, uninstall JSDK 1.4 beta (if you have installed it), and install JDK 1.3 instead. dbc@csit.fsu.edu

  2. Installing JDK 1.3 on Windows • If your computer has an administrator account, log in as such. • Point Internet Explorer at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3 • Follow the “Microsoft Windows” link. Click “continue”, and accept the license. • Click, e.g., “FTP download”. A File Download dialog will probably pop up. Select “Run this program from its current location” if you have the option. • Otherwise, or if you want to install on a different machine, save the .exe to a file, transfer it by suitable media (34M) to the target machine, and run it there. • Click through the installation shield. Accept all defaults unless you have a good reason not to. The software should now be installed. • Add C:\jdk1.3.1_01\bin to your PATH. • Item 4. of http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/install-windows.html gives painstaking instructions for every known variant of Windows. • While you are doing this, create a new environment variable called JAVA_HOME, and set its value to be C:\jdk1.3.1_01. This is for the benefit of Tomcat. • Type the command java –version in a new command prompt window, to test. dbc@csit.fsu.edu

  3. Installing Tomcat 4 on Windows • Go to the Jakarta home page: http://jakarta.apache.org • Follow the Binaries link under Download. • Under the heading Release Builds, follow the Tomcat 4.0.1 link. • Follow one of the links labeled bin/ or binary. • Click on jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1.exe. A File Download dialog will probably pop up. Select “Run this program from its current location”, if you have the option. • Otherwise, or if you want to install on a different machine, save the .exe to a file, transfer it by suitable media (7M) to the target machine, and run it there. • Click through the installation shield. Accept all defaults if you like, although I chose C:\jakarta-tomcat as the installation directory (rather than the default, which is under C:\Program Files). The software should now be installed. • Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME, if you haven’t already done so (see previous slide). In a similar way, create an environment variable CATALINA_HOME with value C:\jakarta-tomcat, or your selected installation directory. dbc@csit.fsu.edu

  4. Starting and Stopping your Server • To start your server, start a Command Prompt Window, and run the command C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin\startup.bat. • To stop your server run the command C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin\shutdown.bat. • Of course, replace c:\jakarta-tomcat here with your selected installation directory, if you chose a different one. dbc@csit.fsu.edu

  5. Check Your Server is Running • Running a Web browser on the same machine, point it at: http://localhost:8080 • If you are running your server on a host with fixed DNS name, hostname, you may point a browser from another computer at the URL: http://hostname:8080 • You should see the default Tomcat home page, which contains some useful documentation. dbc@csit.fsu.edu
