The question is how to specify custom JRE path for Apache tomcat in Intellij IDEA (when starting an application from IDEA)?

It seems, that just configuring its path (path to jvm.dll) in Apache Tomcat monitor doesn't help. Are any other ideas or ways how to do this?

How can I change Java path in Tomcat?

We can change the JRE for Tomcat by setting the JRE_HOME variable in a script file called setenv. bat (on Windows) or setenv.sh (on *nix). This file does not exist by default, so create such file and place it under CATALINA_BASE\bin directory (CATALINA_BASE is the Tomcat installation directory).

Can Tomcat run on JRE?

Tomcat has Eclipse Java Compiler bundle so it can run on JRE and still support JSP.

Right way is:

  1. Go to run configuration of Tomcat launching in IDEA
  2. Select "Startup/Connection" tab
  3. Select desired run mod ("Run"/"Debug"/....)
  4. add new enviroment variable:

"JRE_HOME" with path to needed JRE.
