Tomcat/webapp bundled deployment
Hello, I would like to deploy Tomcat bundled with a few applications (both
webapps and non-web applications). Preferably, this would all be stored in
one file (be it a jar, ear, or any other format), and upon decompressing, I
could simply run a script that would activate the server, load the webapps
onto the server, and launch the non-web applications. My first question is
how can I package Tomcat along with all other necessary source/class files,
scripts and whatnot. I would be interested in packaging via Eclipse, but
any other method would be fine as well.
I am currently running Tomcat v6.0.18 on Windows XP, but I plan to deploy on
both Windows XP and Linux (various possible flavors).
If more information is needed, please let me know, and I will reply as
quickly as I can. Thanks for your help.

So post your server.xml and the web.xml for your webapp. Remove all comments and obscure any privileged information (eg, passwords). Lots of configuration things have changed since Tomcat 4.

That would be an extremely odd and probably erroneous setting for appBase; let's hope you meant docBase.

1. The "don't hijack threads" messages are important.
2. Private emails are discouraged, per policy.

You really don't know that most people don't understand your problem,
because we use email clients that recognize threads properly? All of
the hundreds of "don't hijack threads" messages I see on this list are
nothing but spam, AFAIC.
Suggestion: In future, when deriding someone for "hijacking" threads,
do it in a private email instead of annoying everyone else on the
list. Thanks.

You could have just answered my question, instead of making such a snarky
reply.

You really don't know how to create a new e-mail message, rather than
hitting the reply button? What seriously deficient e-mail client are you
using?

weird bug?
Posted by michel <co...@videotron.ca>.
I probaly have some configuation all wrong, but with Apache Tomcat Version
6.0.26 I have this weird new bug that I didn't have in Tomcat 4.1.
If I have this code in a jsp that is in the appBase="webapps/supergrow"
directory the import seems to work
<%@ page import="compukat.io.FileUtil" %>
but if I have the JSP in webapps/supergrow/canscale it stops working ...
Thank you

Re: Tomcat/webapp bundled deployment
Posted by David Fisher <df...@jmlafferty.com>.
That is pretty much what i do, but I recommend that you adopt an overlay approach. It will make it easy for you to take new versions of Tomcat when they are available.
Here is how I currently deploy to Solaris.
(1) I use a blessed tomcat distribution from http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi
(2) I build a tarball that contains files to be installed relative to the tomcat directory
- bin/setenv.sh - to configure the environment.
- conf/server.xml - to configure tomcat hosts
- conf/tomcat-users.xml - to enable a user for jmx and the manager
- conf/context.xml - to configure the context.
- Catalina/<domainname>/manager.xml - to manage my domain.
- lib/*.jar - common jar files - poi, lucene, log4j, etc.
- webapps-wars/ROOT.war - my webapp - I separate the base in server.xml
(3) I have an installation script that always assumes that there is either a previous install or a fresh installation of Tomcat.
- stops tomcat.
- makes sure that examples and other default tomcat applications are removed.
- changes the directory to the tomcat base.
- untars the tarball over tomcat.
- modifies the jvmroute in the conf/server.xml so my apache front ends can load balance with mod_jk.
If you can use cygwin then you may be able to create a single script for both Windows and Linux.
Regards,
Dave
