How can i install/configure or set up tomcat 7 manually?

I downloaded apache-tomcat-7.0.20.tar.gz fr开发者_如何学编程om here => http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi

Now how can i install/configure it manually to run springframework project with eclipse?

You have to register your Tomcat server in Eclipse (Window -> Preferences and then select Server -> Runtime Environments). After this you will be able to deploy your projects directly from Eclipse.

You do not need to install Tomcat. Just unpack it and start with the startap.sh or (startup.bat on windows) which is in the bin directory.

Also you can install it as a windows service or unix daemon, refer to the docs: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/setup.html
