Interesting point, and perspective. Although strictly by compressed file size I'd actually say OFBiz is impressively minimal. I'd be surprised to see any other ERP/CRM/etc system come in that small... heck even desktop accounting software like QuickBooks is way bigger than OFBiz in byte size!

Yes, I understand that's not much comfort if your internet connection not cooperating. Heck, there are various podcasts I download and watch regularly that are over 3 times the size of OFBiz in bytes!

Last time I exported ofbiz, without source code, and zipped was 80mb for
just the jar files alone.
the complete file zipped, (for ftp) was over 100mb.
Not small at all.

You may want to look into OFBiz a little more. To paraphrase a classic
movie: I don't think OFBiz is what you think it is.

If you're looking for a small and simple application, like for ecommerce
for example, you may want to check out Magento or osCommerce.

OFBiz is a full-featured ERP, CRM, and eCommerce solution with well over 1 million lines of artifacts in thousands of files (using code- efficient tools, and competing with software that consists of around 5-10 million
lines of text).

I want an easy way to deploy the OFBIZ on any server, i want a small file without source code, only needed to perform the application. If a WAR
cannot be generated which path to deploy the OFBIZ?

The WAR file specification is not sufficient for something like OFBiz.
The main reason is that OFBiz consists of more than one webapp
(actually around 20). There is also a lot of infrastructure (framework
tools and such) that are shared among multiple webapps.

The EAR specification gets closer, but to handle classpath entries and
such proprietary extensions are usually needed.

Why do you want to deploy in an external Tomcat instead of using the
embedded version?
