 <section name="Installing services">
 <p>
 The safest way to manually install the service is to use the provided
 <b>service.bat</b> script. Administrator privileges are required to run this
 script. If necessary, you can use the <code>/user</code> switch to specify
 a user to use for the installation of the service.
 </p>
 <p>
 <strong>NOTE:</strong> On Windows Vista or any later operating system with User
 Account Control (UAC) enabled you will be asked for additional privileges
 when 'Tomcat<version-major/>.exe' is launched by the script.<br/>
 If you want to pass additional options to service installer as
 <code>PR_*</code> environment variables, you have to either configure them
 globally in OS, or launch the program that sets them with elevated privileges
 (e.g. right-click on cmd.exe and select "Run as administrator"; on Windows 8
 (or later) or Windows Server 2012 (or later), you can open an elevated command
 prompt for the current directory from the Explorer
 by clicking on the "File" menu bar). See issue <bug>56143</bug> for details.
 </p>

 <source>Install the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
 C:\> service.bat install</source>

 <p>There is a 2nd optional parameter that lets you specify the name of the
 service, as displayed in Windows services.</p>

 <source>Install the service named 'MyService'
 C:\> service.bat install MyService</source>

 <p>
 If using tomcat<version-major/>.exe, you need to use the <b>//IS//</b> parameter.</p>

 <source>Install the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //IS//Tomcat<version-major/> --DisplayName="Apache Tomcat <version-major/>" ^
      --Install="C:\Program Files\Tomcat\bin\tomcat<version-major/>.exe" --Jvm=auto ^
      --StartMode=jvm --StopMode=jvm ^
      --StartClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StartParams=start ^
      --StopClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StopParams=stop</source>

 </section>
 <section name="Updating services">
 <p>
 To update the service parameters, you need to use the <b>//US//</b> parameter.
 </p>

 <source>Update the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //US//Tomcat<version-major/> --Description="Apache Tomcat Server - http://tomcat.apache.org/ " ^
      --Startup=auto --Classpath=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar</source>

 <p>If you gave the service an optional name, you need to specify it like this:
 </p>

 <source>Update the service named 'MyService'
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //US//MyService --Description="Apache Tomcat Server - http://tomcat.apache.org/ " ^
      --Startup=auto --Classpath=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar</source>

 </section>
 <section name="Removing services">
 <p>
 To remove the service, you need to use the <b>//DS//</b> parameter.<br/>
 If the service is running it will be stopped and then deleted.</p>

 <source>Remove the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //DS//Tomcat<version-major/></source>

 <p>If you gave the service an optional name, you need to specify it like this:
 </p>

 <source>Remove the service named 'MyService'
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //DS//MyService</source>

 </section>
 <section name="Debugging services">
 <p>
 To run the service in console mode, you need to use the <b>//TS//</b> parameter.
 The service shutdown can be initiated by pressing <b>CTRL+C</b> or
 <b>CTRL+BREAK</b>.
 If you rename the tomcat<version-major/>.exe to testservice.exe then you can just execute the
 testservice.exe and this command mode will be executed by default.</p>

 <source>Run the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>' in console mode
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //TS//Tomcat<version-major/> [additional arguments]
 Or simply execute:
 C:\> tomcat<version-major/></source>

 </section>
 <section name="Multiple Instances">
 <p>
 Tomcat supports installation of multiple instances. You can have a single
 installation of Tomcat with multiple instances running on different IP/port
 combinations, or multiple Tomcat versions, each running one or more instances on
 different IP/ports.</p>
 <p>
 Each instance folder will need the following structure:
 </p>
 <ul>
 <li>conf</li>
 <li>logs</li>
 <li>temp</li>
 <li>webapps</li>
 <li>work</li>
 </ul>
 <p>
 At a minimum, conf should contain a copy of the following files from
 CATALINA_HOME\conf\. Any files not copied and edited, will be picked up by
 default from CATALINA_HOME\conf, i.e. CATALINA_BASE\conf files override defaults
 from CATALINA_HOME\conf.</p>
 <ul>
 <li>server.xml</li>
 <li>web.xml</li>
 </ul>
 <p>
 You must edit CATALINA_BASE\conf\server.xml to specify a unique IP/port for the
 instance to listen on. Find the line that contains
 <code>&lt;Connector port="8080" ...</code> and add an address attribute and/or
 update the port number so as to specify a unique IP/port combination.</p>
 <p>
 To install an instance, first set the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to the
 name of the Tomcat installation directory. Then create a second environment
 variable CATALINA_BASE and point this to the instance folder. Then run "service
 install" command specifying a service name.</p>

 <source>set CATALINA_HOME=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>
 set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>\instances\instance1
 service install instance1</source>

 <p>
 To modify the service settings, you can run <b>tomcat<version-major/>w //ES//instance1</b>.
 </p>
 <p>
 For additional instances, create additional instance folder, update the
 CATALINA_BASE environment variable, and run the service install again.</p>

 <source>set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>\instances\instance2
 service install instance2</source>

	<section name="Installing services">
	<p>
	The safest way to manually install the service is to use the provided
	<b>service.bat</b> script. Administrator privileges are required to run this
	script. If necessary, you can use the <code>/user</code> switch to specify
	a user to use for the installation of the service.
	</p>
	<p>
	<strong>NOTE:</strong> On Windows Vista or any later operating system with User
	Account Control (UAC) enabled you will be asked for additional privileges
	when 'Tomcat<version-major/>.exe' is launched by the script.<br/>
	If you want to pass additional options to service installer as
	<code>PR_*</code> environment variables, you have to either configure them
	globally in OS, or launch the program that sets them with elevated privileges
	(e.g. right-click on cmd.exe and select "Run as administrator"; on Windows 8
	(or later) or Windows Server 2012 (or later), you can open an elevated command
	prompt for the current directory from the Explorer
	by clicking on the "File" menu bar). See issue <bug>56143</bug> for details.
	</p>

	<source>Install the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
	C:\> service.bat install</source>

	<p>There is a 2nd optional parameter that lets you specify the name of the
	service, as displayed in Windows services.</p>

	<source>Install the service named 'MyService'
	C:\> service.bat install MyService</source>

	<p>
	If using tomcat<version-major/>.exe, you need to use the <b>//IS//</b> parameter.</p>

	<source>Install the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
	C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //IS//Tomcat<version-major/> --DisplayName="Apache Tomcat <version-major/>" ^

	<section name="Updating services">
	<p>
	To update the service parameters, you need to use the <b>//US//</b> parameter.

	<section name="Removing services">
	<p>
	To remove the service, you need to use the <b>//DS//</b> parameter.<br/>
	If the service is running it will be stopped and then deleted.</p>

	<source>Remove the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>'
	C:\> tomcat<version-major/> //DS//Tomcat<version-major/></source>

	<section name="Debugging services">
	<p>
	To run the service in console mode, you need to use the <b>//TS//</b> parameter.
	The service shutdown can be initiated by pressing <b>CTRL+C</b> or
	<b>CTRL+BREAK</b>.
	If you rename the tomcat<version-major/>.exe to testservice.exe then you can just execute the
	testservice.exe and this command mode will be executed by default.</p>

	<source>Run the service named 'Tomcat<version-major/>' in console mode

	Or simply execute:
	C:\> tomcat<version-major/></source>

	</section>
	<section name="Multiple Instances">
	<p>
	Tomcat supports installation of multiple instances. You can have a single
	installation of Tomcat with multiple instances running on different IP/port
	combinations, or multiple Tomcat versions, each running one or more instances on
	different IP/ports.</p>
	<p>
	Each instance folder will need the following structure:
	</p>
	<ul>
	<li>conf</li>
	<li>logs</li>
	<li>temp</li>
	<li>webapps</li>
	<li>work</li>
	</ul>
	<p>
	At a minimum, conf should contain a copy of the following files from
	CATALINA_HOME\conf\. Any files not copied and edited, will be picked up by
	default from CATALINA_HOME\conf, i.e. CATALINA_BASE\conf files override defaults
	from CATALINA_HOME\conf.</p>
	<ul>
	<li>server.xml</li>
	<li>web.xml</li>
	</ul>
	<p>
	You must edit CATALINA_BASE\conf\server.xml to specify a unique IP/port for the
	instance to listen on. Find the line that contains
	<code><Connector port="8080" ...</code> and add an address attribute and/or
	update the port number so as to specify a unique IP/port combination.</p>
	<p>
	To install an instance, first set the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to the
	name of the Tomcat installation directory. Then create a second environment
	variable CATALINA_BASE and point this to the instance folder. Then run "service
	install" command specifying a service name.</p>

	<source>set CATALINA_HOME=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>
	set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>\instances\instance1
	service install instance1</source>

	<p>
	To modify the service settings, you can run <b>tomcat<version-major/>w //ES//instance1</b>.
	</p>
	<p>
	For additional instances, create additional instance folder, update the
	CATALINA_BASE environment variable, and run the service install again.</p>

	<source>set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_<version-major/>\instances\instance2
	service install instance2</source>
