Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

The installer displays a lot of output, but if you save it and carefully look through it it might help J

 

You can use whatever tomcat, but you should do what the installer did.  Here is my capture of it, might be more J

 

Set memory limit for tomcat

 

Editing file: C:\temp\installer2\apache-tomcat-6.0.35\bin\catalina.bat

Adding max memory to file at line number: 65

- old permgen memory value is same as new value: 256M

Editing file: C:\temp\installer2\apache-tomcat-6.0.35\bin\catalina.sh

Adding max memory to file at line number: 65

- old permgen memory value is same as new value: 256M

 

Edit URI encoding

 

Do you want to set URIEncoding to UTF-8 in tomcat server.xml <Connector> elements (t|f)? [t]:

- adding tomcat URIEncoding attribute for element <Connector AJP with value: 'UTF-8'

- adding tomcat URIEncoding attribute for element <Connector HTTP with value: 'UTF-8'

 

Edit log dir in log4j

 

Editing file: C:\temp\installer2\grouper.ui-2.2.1\dist\grouper\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.properties

- changing UI log directory from: 'C:/temp/installer2/grouper.apiBinary-2.2.1/logs' to: 'C:/temp/in

staller2/apache-tomcat-6.0.35/logs/grouperUi'

- changing UI log directory from: 'C:/temp/installer2/grouper.apiBinary-2.2.1/logs' to: 'C:/temp/in

staller2/apache-tomcat-6.0.35/logs/grouperUi'

- changing UI log directory from: 'C:/temp/installer2/grouper.apiBinary-2.2.1/logs' to: 'C:/temp/in

staller2/apache-tomcat-6.0.35/logs/grouperUi'

- changing UI log directory from: 'C:/temp/installer2/grouper.apiBinary-2.2.1/logs' to: 'C:/temp/in

staller2/apache-tomcat-6.0.35/logs/grouperUi'

Creating log directory: C:\temp\installer2\apache-tomcat-6.0.35\logs\grouperUi

Created and deleted a test file successfully in dir: C:\temp\installer2\apache-tomcat-6.0.35\logs\gr

ouperUi

 

Put this in server.xml

 

<Context docBase="C:\temp\installer2\grouper.ui-2.2.1\dist\grouper" path="/grouper" reloadable="false"/>

 

Edit tomcat-users.xml

 

<role rolename="grouper_user"/>

<user username="GrouperSystem" password="XXXXXXX" roles="grouper_user"/>

 

 

Thanks,

Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] Lost my way .. point me to the documentation

 

Folks,

 

When I installed the quick start on my desktop, it downloaded tomcat and integrated it in the installer directory.  Everything was loaded up as a consequence of the QuickStart process.  From there the demo ran nicely.  

 

Since I am having trouble installing Grouper on the intended linux test server, I came back to the Desktop demo, but discovered grouper did not load as expected when using the start/stop tomcat commands.   I discovered it will not load from there - it can not find its way to several libraries or files.

 

When using the QuickStart installer, it proceeds from installing the UI, to downloading a bundled version of apache tomcat.  In the install process, I don't recall where I was asked to specify /usr/share/tomcat6 as the target for the build (I am assuming a configuration file), but it does appear that I need the embedded version of tomcat in the installation process.  Am I right about that?

 

I have read through several installation pages and somehow I have not found (again) the page that addresses the way in which tomcat is included and why.  I am not sure if any of the other installation examples (outside of quick start) are what I should be using instead.

 

I seem to be going in circles in the documentation.
