Hi Guys, I've been developing on a Tomcat/Openbd/CentOS install for several years now, and over time I kind of lost view of how I had everything setup.
So I started over. I'm not trying to setup a multi-site configuration. This server will be setup for one specific app. I want to make sure I'm approaching this the right way and I'm putting stuff in the right place. I'm building an indepth how to but before I publish it I want to validate my approach. My biggest concern is the difference between tomcat's web.xml and OpenBD's web.xml (which look to be the same document). 1) Install CentOS 2) Install Tomcat (installs to /tomcat) and verify it is working 3) DL and unpack OpenBD to /tomcat/webapps/openbd 4) delete openbd.war (must be deleted or it will unpack again after step 5 and create another openbd folder) 5) rename /tomcat/webapps/openbd to /tomcat/webapps/myapp 6) Verify OpenBD is working Important TomCat Config Files /tomcat/conf/server.xml - this is the basic configuration of the webserver. The site is declared here as a virtual host and the location of the application's root folder is included as well. /tomcat/conf/web.xml - This is basic webapp configuration. Default documents and error pages are declared here. Important OpenBD Config Files /tomcat/conf/webapps/myApp/WEB-INF/bluedragon/bluedragon.xml - this is the base openBD configuration file. This is where debug ips, search collections and datasources are defined. **/tomcat/conf/webapps/myApp/WEB-INF/web.xml - My understanding is that this is a webapp specific web.xml and most of what I declare in tomcat's web.xml could also be declared here instead? Can someone clarify? I think this web.xml would come into play if I was deploying multiple webapps and a 'one size fits all' config in tomcat's web.xml wouldn't work. Thanks! Once I'm certain I'm putting things in the right spot, I'll post my full CentOS+TOMCAT+OpenBD how to. -- -- online documentation: http://openbd.org/manual/ http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Open BlueDragon" group.
