A recent attempt to install Tomcat5 through the RPM repositories with the statement yum install tomcat5 failed to be as successful to run the application. Also there is a need to run Tomcat with Sun Java JDK not the openJDK that is available through the channels. These are the steps to get Tomcat up and running on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5) or CentOS 5 (CENTOS5) installation using version 5.4.
Apache Tomcat 10.1.5 is available as a free download on our software library. The file size of the latest setup package available for download is 12.1 MB. The following versions: 9.0, 7.0 and 6.0 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users.
Download Tomcat 5.5 For Windows Xp
The common filenames for the program's installer are Uninstall.exe, scvhost.exe, java.exe, jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9.exe or jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7.exe etc. Apache Tomcat lies within Internet & Network Tools, more precisely Network Tools.
This free program was originally developed by The Apache Software Foundation. You can run this free PC software on Windows XP/XP Professional/Vista/7/8/10/11 32 and 64-bit. This download was checked by our built-in antivirus and was rated as safe.
I have tomcat 5.5 installed, running and verifiable at :8080/. The Tomcat menu option appears in the Eclipse menu bar and I can start and stop Tomcat from there. In Eclipse, it does not show as a Server Runtime Environment in Window - Preferences - Server - Runtime Environments, nor does it appear in the list of environments that can be added when I click the "Add" button. All I see is the J2EE Runtime Library.
You need to go to Help>Eclipse Marketplace . Then type server in the search box it will display Eclipse JST Server Adapters (Apache Tomcat,...) .Select that one and install it .Then go back to Window>Preferences>Server>Runtime Environnement, click add choose Apache tomcat version then add the installation directory .
You may get more success if you do a "search" for the runtime env from the preferences screen instead of hitting "add" - see this demo on youtube. =EOkN5IPoJVs&playnext_from=TL&videos=rVnITzSU2Z8 - When you hit search, you are prompted to point to the tomcat directory and then it SHOULD add it as a server runtime environment. Unfortunately for me, that is not the case (I get "no new server runtime environments were found") But you might have more success.
You must verify the integrity of the downloaded files. We provide PGP signatures for every release file. This signature should be matched against the KEYS file which contains the PGP keys of Tomcat's Release Managers. We also provide an MD5 checksum for every release file. After you download the file, you should calculate a checksum for your download, and make sure it is the same as our

If you haven't done so already, download TomcatSW. I like to put it at the root level of my C: drive with the version number to make it easy to tell what version of Tomcat I'm currently using. Tomcat can be downloaded from

Microsoft Internet Explorer add-ons are software components. When you visit a Web site, Internet Explorer add-ons may be downloaded automatically, or you may be prompted to download an add-on. For some add-ons, you might specifically visit a Web site to obtain the latest add-on for Internet Explorer. These components may be third-party ActiveX controls that extend browser functionality or that provide special user interface elements in Internet Explorer. You can control add-ons by using the Manage Add-ons feature.
If the procedure that corresponds to your operating system does not resolve your issue, go to Fix Wi-Fi connection issues in windows. The guidance that's offered there will help you identify network connection issues and run automated troubleshooters to fix the issues.
Choose a location toinstall Tomcat, and unpack both the Tomcat binary and the compatibilitypatch there in the same location.The compatibility patch will simply overlay your Tomcat directorieswith the appropriate files. From this point forward these instructionswill refer to the top-level Tomcat directory (e.g.jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9)as $CATALINA_HOME. You may set this as an environment variable forconvenience sake, but this is not required. Make sure thatyou have write permissions to the Tomcat files and directories.
If you are running onWindows special care is needed in identifyingyour tomcat home. Maven wants Unix-style forward slashes, "/", and isconfused by Windows-style backslashes "\". If you have your tomcatlocated in "c:\tomcat", you need to identify it like this:
This will run for a fewminutes with very verbose output. It will download any necessary jarsinto the local repository (do not be too concerned with reported jardownload failures for your first build. This is normal for anew install, and maven will later build many of the required jars. Subsequent builds should not report these failures), compilethe Sakai code, and deploy Sakai to Tomcatin the form of .war files in the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps directory. Ifit completes with the message BUILD SUCCESSFUL, you should be able tomove on to the next step. If you are greeted with the report BUILDFAILED read the accompanying error message carefully to troubleshoot(see the TroubleshootingGuide).
The following text was taken from the RUNNING.txt file found in the root folder of a downloaded and unzipped copy of Apache Tomcat. The steps outlined below describe how to setup Apache Tomcat to be used in a software development mode.

In this case set your JAVA_HOME environment variable to the pathname of the directory into which you installed the JDK, e.g. c:\j2sdk5.0 or /usr/local/java/j2sdk5.0.(2) Download and Install the Tomcat Binary DistributionNOTE: As an alternative to downloading a binary distribution, you can createyour own from the Tomcat source repository, as described in "BUILDING.txt".If you do this, the value to use for "$catalina.home" will be the "dist"subdirectory of your source distribution.(2.1) Download a binary distribution of Tomcat from: (2.2) Unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location so that the distribution resides in its own directory (conventionally named "apache-tomcat-[version]"). For the purposes of the remainder of this document, the symbolic name "$CATALINA_HOME" is used to refer to the full pathname of the release directory.(3) Start Up Tomcat(3.1) Tomcat can be started by executing the following commands: $CATALINA_HOME\bin\startup.bat (Windows) $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh (Unix)(3.2) After startup, the default web applications included with Tomcat will be available by visiting: :8080/(3.3) Further information about configuring and running Tomcat can be found in the documentation included here, as well as on the Tomcat web site: (4) Shut Down Tomcat(4.1) Tomcat can be shut down by executing the following command: $CATALINA_HOME\bin\shutdown (Windows) $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh (Unix)==================================================Advanced Configuration - Multiple Tomcat Instances==================================================In many circumstances, it is desirable to have a single copy of a Tomcatbinary distribution shared among multiple users on the same server. To makethis possible, you can set the $CATALINA_BASE environment variable to thedirectory that contains the files for your 'personal' Tomcat instance.When you use $CATALINA_BASE, Tomcat will calculate all relative references forfiles in the following directories based on the value of $CATALINA_BASE insteadof $CATALINA_HOME:* bin - Only setenv.sh (*nix), setenv.bat (windows) and tomcat-juli.jar* conf - Server configuration files (including server.xml)* logs - Log and output files* webapps - Automatically loaded web applications* work - Temporary working directories for web applications* temp - Directory used by the JVM for temporary files (java.io.tmpdir)Note that by default Tomcat will first try to load classes and JARs from$CATALINA_BASE/lib and then $CATALINA_HOME/lib. You can place instance specificJARs and classes (e.g. JDBC drivers) in $CATALINA_BASE/lib whilst keeping thestandard Tomcat JARs in $CATALINA_HOME/lib. If you do not set $CATALINA_BASE, $CATALINA_BASE will default to the same valueas $CATALINA_HOME, which means that the same directory is used for all relativepath resolutions.================Troubleshooting================There are only really 3 things likely to go wrong during the stand-aloneTomcat install:(1) The most common hiccup is when another web server (or any process for that matter) has laid claim to port 8080. This is the default HTTP port that Tomcat attempts to bind to at startup. To change this, open the file: $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml and search for '8080'. Change it to a port that isn't in use, and is greater than 1024, as ports less than or equal to 1024 require superuser access to bind under UNIX. Restart Tomcat and you're in business. Be sure that you replace the "8080" in the URL you're using to access Tomcat. For example, if you change the port to 1977, you would request the URL :1977/ in your browser.(2) An "out of environment space" error when running the batch files in Windows 95, 98, or ME operating systems. Right-click on the STARTUP.BAT and SHUTDOWN.BAT files. Click on "Properties", then on the "Memory" tab. For the "Initial environment" field, enter in something like 4096. After you click apply, Windows will create shortcuts which you can use to start and stop the container.(3) The 'localhost' machine isn't found. This could happen if you're behind a proxy. If that's the case, make sure the proxy configuration for your browser knows that you shouldn't be going through the proxy to access the "localhost". In Netscape, this is under Edit/Preferences -> Advanced/Proxies, and in Internet Explorer, Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings. 2ff7e9595c
