Hope someone can help.
Rub: I can't get Tomcat 5.5 to start as a Windows service in 64-bit windows using the 32-bit JDK.
Details:
I used Tomcat 5.5 on Windows Server 2008 (x64) as a service for some time, using the 64-bit JDK.
I need to install the 32-bit JDK on this 64-bit machine so that I can use the Java JAI libraries (without the 64-bit version of JAI). I need to start Tomcat using this 32-bit JDK.
I can start Tomcat using the 32-bit JDK if I run it with /bin/startup.bat
The problem is that it will not start as a Windows service. I am using Tomcat scroll executables. Has anyone managed to start Tomcat as a service using the 32-bit JDK on a 64-bit machine?
Thanks for your experience.
