I did not configure any of the files. But Startup.bat works and expose localhost:8080. But when I tried to open Tomee Gui from the webpage. It didn't load.

Answer 1

I just configured my TomEE v1.6.0 as a Windows service doing as follows:

1 - Run Windows CMD as an Administrator
2 - Go to TomEE bin folder (${tomee}\bin)
3 - Execute this command:

service.bat install

4 - Now just run your TomEE and test it

Hope this helps
