To update the service parameters, you need to use the //US// parameter.
Update the service named ‘Tomcat8’
C:\> tomcat8 //US//Tomcat8 –Description=”Apache Tomcat Server – http://tomcat.apache.org/ ” \
C:\> –Startup=auto –Classpath=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar
If you gave the service an optional name, you need to specify it like this:
Update the service named ‘MyService’
C:\> tomcat8 //US//MyService –Description=”Apache Tomcat Server – http://tomcat.apache.org/ ” \
C:\> –Startup=auto –Classpath=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar
