Obtaining the service installer files

The service installer and monitor files are part of the Tomcat download.

You must use the files for Tomcat version 6.0.29. If your JVM is 64-bit, then you must use the files for Tomcat 6.0.30 or later.

To obtain the files and add them to Studio:

  1. From the Apache Tomcat website (http://tomcat.apache.org), download the Tomcat file apache-tomcat-6.0.29-windows-x86.zip .

    A sample URL for the archive directory is: http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.29/bin/

    If you are not using the bundled JVM, and your JVM is 64-bit, then you must download the 64-bit version of the zip file for Tomcat 6.0.30 or later. For example, apache-tomcat-6.0.33-windows-x64.zip.

  2. Extract the file to a temporary directory.
  3. In the bin subdirectory of the temporary download directory, locate the following files:
    • service.bat
    • tomcat6.exe
    • tomcat6w.exe. This is the Tomcat service monitor.
  4. Copy these files to the bin directory of Information Discovery Studio:

    endeca-portal\tomcat-6.0.29\bin
