[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-894) Add webapp mode for Tika Server, simplifies deployment

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-894?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13986435#comment-13986435 ] 

Frederik Bosch commented on TIKA-894:
-------------------------------------

Dear Ian,

Well, we are using TIKA to give meta data of found PDF documents on the 
web. I do not know what it causing the memory problems. I guess (wild 
guess) that the used memory increases a little bit after every PDF and 
then one time it reaches its maximum level and I have to restart the 
service.

Regards,
Frederik

> For use in production services, Tika Server should really be deployed as a WAR file, under a reliable servlet container that knows how to run as a system service, for example Tomcat or JBoss.
> This is especially important on Windows, where I wasted an entire day trying to make TikaServerCli run as some kind of a service. 
> Maven makes building a webapp pretty trivial. With the attached patch applied, "mvn war:war" should work. It seems to run fine in Tomcat, which makes Windows deployment much simpler. Just install Tomcat and drop the WAR file into tomcat's webapps directory and you're away.
