3.7.2. Installing Klaros-Testmanagement as a Windows service

Under the Windows operating system family the supplied service.bat script can be used to install the tomcat application server as a Windows service.

Please refer to the official Apache Tomcat 6.0 Windows service HOW-TO for further details.

[Warning]Adjust the memory settings!

Klaros-Testmanagement needs a larger amount of memory than a default Java installation suggests. Therefore it is necessary to supply the following settings to the tomcat configuration which can be set in the tomcat6w administration interface by adding the line -XX:MaxPermSize=128m to the Java Options text area in the Java tab as shown below. In addition, a reasonable amount of maximum memory should defined here as well.
