The message was "Failed to install Tomcat6 service. Ignore and continue
anyway (not recommended)?" Tomcat 5 service has been stopped prior to the
installation. I wonder why the setup issues this message, since the tomcat6
service should be considered independent of tomcat5 service. Maybe there is
some name/description clash in the service installation routine (does
Windows allow to have more than one service with an identical DisplayName?).

Anyways, the services.bat is indeed the best workaround.
