Apache Tomcat 7 JAVA options
I needed to increase tomcat 7's heap size and provide an environment variable at the command line and here is how I did it: In Tomcat's bin folder, open catalina.bat file in a text editor. Replace the following statement: set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% %LOGGING_CONFIG% By this one: set JAVA_OPTS=-DIPK_CFG=C:/Skycomm-CTH/appconfig.properties -Xms64m -Xmx1024m %JAVA_OPTS% %LOGGING_CONFIG% If you have a better suggestion, please add it as a comment.
