<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The apache tomcat is a jsp (java servlet pages) server. It's similar to an http server like the apache server, only it serves jsp. It is required in order to use [[Thredds]] or [[LAS]].<br />
<br />
==Setting up==<br />
> cd /home/guillaume/Software/las7<br />
> mkdir tomcat<br />
> cd tomcat<br />
> wget http://neacm.fe.up.pt/pub/apache/tomcat/tomcat-5/v5.5.26/bin/apache-tomcat-5.5.26.tar.gz<br />
> tar -xzf apache-tomcat-5.5.25.tar.gz<br />
> ln -s apache-tomcat-5.5.25/ tomcat<br />
<br />
Edit the <code>apache-tomcat-5.5.25/conf/server.xml</code> and change the ports (default:8080) if needed.<br />
<br />
To run the tomcat as a daemon service, one needs to compile the <code>jsvc</code> program:<br />
> cd ./tomcat/bin<br />
> tar xvfz jsvc.tar.gz<br />
> cd jsvc-src<br />
> ./configure --with-java=/usr/java<br />
> make<br />
> cp jsvc ..<br />
> cd ..<br />
<br />
==The tomcat files tree==<br />
===/bin===<br />
* '''./jsvc''' : the loader that runs tomcat as a daemon ( > jsvc -help)<br />
* '''[[tomcat bash|./Tomcat5.sh start|stop]]''': the custom bash script that starts or stops the tomcat server<br />
<br />
===/conf===<br />
* '''server.xml''': where one defines which ports for tomcat to use.<br />
* '''tomcat-users.xml''': where one defines who are the valid users for the tomcat server and what are their roles (privileges)<br />
<br />
===/log===<br />
* '''catalina.out''': where one can check the logs and errors issued by the boot and running of the tomcat server.<br />
<br />
===/webapps===<br />
Webapps the root directory where all the .war files (the tomcat servlets) go. Ex: [[thredds]].<br />
<br />
==Faqs==<br />
*'''How do I restart the tomcat and thredds server in data.mohid.com?'''<br />
> cd /home/guillaume/Software/las7/tomcat/tomcat/bin<br />
> ./Tomcat5.sh start<br />
<br />
*'''How do I know if tomcat is running?''':<br />
> netstat -tlnap | grep 8080<br />
