I am currently reading Head First: Servlet and JSP. They want me to use Tomcat 5.5 (which is almost outdated). Instead I downloaded Tomcat 7.x.

Now, I was following their instructions on writing the first servlet but I think I will have to set some paths. I have set the path for jdk‘s bin directory so I can compile Java programs from command line, if I want to.

Does Tomcat require me to set any environment variables ?
If so, which? And how ?

Path to my Tomcat home looks like this: D:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-7.0.35-windows-x86\apache-tomcat-7.0.35

Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit

    You should only need JAVA_HOME to be set. Look in catalina.bat.
