Windows Binaries

Previous versions of the Windows binaries (executables and dlls) found in the <frevvothe <frevvo-home>/tomcat/bin folder bin folder were built for x86 (32-bit) architectures and will not work on a x64 architecture (64-bits). We are now bundling the tomcat 7.0.35 binaries for the three architectures inside <frevvo<frevvo-home>/tomcat/bin folders:  <frevvo-home>\tomcat\bin\x64,  <frevvo-home>\tomcat\bin\i64 and  <frevvo-home>\tomcat\bin\x86.

...

• Replace tomcat7.exe, tomcat7w.exe and tcnative-1.dll found in frevvo/tomcat/bin with bin with the ones found in frevvo/tomcat/bin/x64 x64 (for 64-bit architectures) or the ones found in frevvo/tomcat/bin/i64 (for Itanium 64-bit architectures).

Here are links to the tomcat 6 binaries if that is the version of tomcat you are using:
