<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> If User Account Control (UAC) is enabled you will be
asked for additional privileges when 'Tomcat7.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 <a href="https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56143">56143</a> for details.

<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>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>set CATALINA_HOME=c:\tomcat_7
set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_7\instances\instance1
service install instance1</code></pre></div>
<p>
To modify the service settings, you can run <b>tomcat7w //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>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>set CATALINA_BASE=c:\tomcat_7\instances\instance2
service install instance2</code></pre></div>
