Starting with version 6.8  CatDV Server includes a built-in web server (based on embedded Tomcat). For new installation the built-in web server is the default option, and it is also recommended for most users.

If you are currently using Tomcat and you wish to switch to the embedded web server then you must follow the steps outlined below:

Important! – if you are upgrading to a new version of CatDV Server always complete the upgrade using you existing settings. So if you were using Tomcat then when you perform the upgrade stick to using Tomcat. Do  not attempt to perform the switch to the internal web server until your new version of CatDV is up and running correctly.
