How to add JAVA OPTIONS in Thingworx tomcat service

[Velkumar]

Hi all,

I have installed Thingworx Navigate 8.5 using executable. To debug Thingworx Extension, I need to add JAVA OPTIONS arguments in tomcat service.  There are two bat files in Thingworx installation folder, service.bat & tomcat_windows_service.bat in which one I need add JAVA_OPTIONS and how can I reinstall service.

Could any one help me with this. Thanks in advance.

Hi @odukiya 

Thanks for sharing details. Tomcat and Thingworx are configured already and running. I'm looking for a way to add addition JVM arguments to debug custom Thingworx extension.

Hi ,

You can try adding the Java options in setEnv.bat file placed under bin folder of tomcat and see if that helps to meet your requirement.

Hi @vinakumar

Hello @Velkumar 

If you are not able to find it ,It is recommended that you create a file named setenv.bat (Windows) or setenv.sh (Linux) and place it in the Tomcat bin directory.With this file (which is run by the catalina.bat and catalina.sh scripts), you can change the following Tomcat environment settings with the JAVA_OPTS variable.

In case you still face any issue, please revert

Thanks
