<P><FONT SIZE=2>2 Installing Tomcat</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Install Jakarta Tomcat <A HREF="http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html" TARGET="_blank">http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html</A> into a folder of your choice. This is the CATALINA_HOME folder. Don't forget to set the environment variables CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Test the installation by running tomcat in standalone mode and check the examples. Note: Tomcat uses port 8080 in standalone mode. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>If you wish you can combine the servlet-engine with a webserver like the Apache Web Server <A HREF="http://www.apache.org/httpd.html" TARGET="_blank">http://www.apache.org/httpd.html</A>. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>To make sure Tomcat works with the correct charset to read and write files you should add the following parameter to the commandline that is used to start Tomcat: </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>-Dfile.encoding=ISO8859_1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>You can set the environment varibale CATALINA_OPTS to do so. (CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO8859_1)</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'm using also 5.0 Beta 2</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Try it!</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Best Regards,</FONT>
