One configuration jdk

After downloading, decompression, assuming the c:\jdk1_4, to ensure that the bin directory in this directory, the following java_home that directory c:\jdk1_4.
2. Configure System Variables
(1) Right click on "My Computer", select "Properties"-"Advanced", and click "Environment variables".

Two configuration Tomcat
1, download the Tomcat zip compression package, decompression.
2, modify the Startup.bat file:
Add the following two lines before the first line-
SET JAVA_HOME=JDK Directory
SET catalina_home= The directory of Tomcat or%cd% before decompression
If you need to use Shutdown.bat to shut down the server, add two lines to it.
3, so, run Startup.bat can run the server, run Shutdown.bat can shut down the server.

Three to join the Tomcat service
1, modify the bin directory in the Service.bat:
REM Add the following line
Set catalina_home=%cd%
If Tomcat has never been installed, or if Services.msc starts service Manager to check that there is no Apache Tomcat service, you can go to step two. Or keep going down--
REM modifies the following lines according to the description
Set SERVICE_NAME=TOMCAT5
REM on the line above, TOMCAT5 changes to the service name you need, and this will be the service name that you use to operate with net Start/stop.
Set Pr_displayname=apache Tomcat
REM on the line above, Apache Tomcat is changed to the display service name you need, which is displayed in the service Manager.
Set Pr_description=apache Tomcat Server-Http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat
REM This line change does not matter, is the service description, according to own preference decides.
2, run CMD Open the console, into the Tomat directory/bin folder, enter the following command to run.
Service.bat Install
Program tip: The Service ' TOMCAT5 (or you modify a post service_name) ' has been installed
Description Service Tomcat has been successfully installed.
By the way, running Service.bat Remove can remove the service.
3, here, the service added successfully, run services.msc, you can see the added service, the default state that the service is manually run, in his properties, the startup type changed to "Automatic", after the machine started Tomcat in the background started.

Command for four console control services
Start a service
NET Start service Name
Turn off services
NET stop service Name
Note:
1 This service name can be service_name, or it can be pr_displayname;
2 If the service name contains spaces or Chinese, enclose the service name in Half-width double quotes.

Finally, I wish the first time configuration smoothly.
