Set up service to start up Tomcat
637124May 16 2008 — edited May 19 2008Hi,
On our production Hyperion Planning Server, a service named “Hyperion Planning Web Service” is configured to automatically start up the Tomcat server upon server startup (command behind this service is “C:\Hyperion\common\appServers\Tomcat\4.1.30\bin\tomcat.exe”). On our development server, we do not have this service instantiated and are using batch files to start and stop Tomcat. This is undesirable to us and we wish for Tomcat to start up as a service upon server startup. Otherwise, if a situation occurs that causes a server reboot (whether intentional or not), we are forced to log onto our development server and start Tomcat via the batch files. We wish to create a service to startup Tomcat automatically upon server startup and are soliciting help in understanding how to get this accomplished. Your help and advice is greatly appreciated.
