Cloud Gateway - Tomcat as service

Administration & Troubleshooting
, , ,
1

I’m installing a new Cloud Gateway which has Tomcat 9.0.24 included.  Our current Cloud Gateway installation using Tomcat7 has a Tomcat.exe in the bin but I don’t see that in the new Tomcat directory.

I don’t see anywhere that describes how to have this setup as a Windows Service.

Can someone offer some direction or point me to a doc that describes how to get this done?

You should be able to install your own Tomcat by downloading the Windows Installer GUI from the Apache website. This would allow you to install it as a Windows Service. Then, you’ll have to copy all files within the \webapps\CloudGateway(and probably also the contents of the /keystore folder) of the Tomcat that comes bundled with Cloud Gateway to the same location under the Tomcat version that you installed.

Thanks for the reply, I’ll look into doing it this way.

Hi @chrisk ,

I am pleased to see that you were able to find an answer to your question!

You did really well on including labels to your post, for providing the IIQ version you are using, and for accepting a reply as a solution. This will surely benefit other Compass users who are in the same situation and are searching for any additional sources of information.

Thank you!
