[opencms-dev] Simple install issue

Hi Simon,
I know what your talking about. Trying to install Tomcat directly on a Cobalt was very difficult. Thankfully Sun released an update to the J2RE that bundled in Tomcat & configured it with Apache and the mod_jk in httpd.conf. 

It also dynamically created context directories in Tomcat and each domain...so each domain has its own WEB-INF directory (mirrored within Tomcat). I can plunk a test JSP script anywhere on my domains and the file will load (normal 80 port). My test jsp file in the OpenCMS directory: 

http://www.verada.net/opencms/ocsetup/test.jsp

I did try loading the directory in port 8080 but nothing came up. Not sure how to proceed....

thanks again,
Geoffrey

  Geoffrey,

   

  When you say that Tomcat is running in conjunction with Apache, what do you mean exactly?  This is not the default configuration and getting the correct webapp module to run on Apache to connect to Tomcat is a real pain on the Cobalt RaQ systems.  Are you sure that you are not running OpenCMS on port 8080 of tomcat?

  Sorry for the repeat. Was just hoping anyone had any ideas. If the first message wasn't clear, I know that Tomcat is running. For some reason it just isn't recognizing the OpenCMS package after the WAR file gets deployed. 

   

  Any assistance would be appreciated. 

   

  Geoffrey

    Apologies in advance for this 'newbie' post. 

     

    I have OpenCMS running fine on my local playground machine (W2K/Tomcat/MySQL), however I am running into a small issue getting OpenCMS running on my hosted server running RedHat (Cobalt RaQ3). 

     

    I've deployed the .WAR file and restarted the webservice with no problem. The directories get created in both Tomcat and in my 'web' folder (similar to htdocs). All ok. However, when I go to the directory (/opencms/ocsetup), my browser just lists the directories. Tomcat is running in conjunction with Apache so I don't need a specific port. 

     

    Anyway, apologies again for the post. I'd appreciate any help in advance. 

     

    thanks, 

     

    Geoffrey McCaleb
