Abstract
This document describes how to install The Jakarta Project's
Apache
Tomcat and The Apache
XML Project's Cocoon 2 under
FreeBSD
. These
instructions were tested using Tomcat
4.1.12, Cocoon 2.0.3 and FreeBSD
4.7-PRERELEASE, though there
should be minimal differences with other versions of the
software. Instructions for installing the original Cocoon 1
application under the Apache JServ servlet
container can be found elsewhere.
Installing Apache Tomcat requires
nothing more than building the port. As the root
user, execute
the following:
# cd /usr/ports/www/jakarta-tomcat41/ # make # make install
Complete the next section before starting up Tomcat.
There is currently no port for Cocoon 2, so installation must be performed manually. Fortunately, using the binary package provided by The Apache XML Project makes this fairly simple. As the root user, execute the following:
# cd /usr/local # mkdir cocoon # cd cocoon # fetch http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/dist/cocoon-2.0.3-bin.tar.gz # gunzip cocoon-2.0.3-bin.tar.gz # cd cocoon-2.0.3 # cp cocoon.war /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat4.1/webapps
If Tomcat had not been previously
installed, and it was installed as described above, you may need
to log out and log back in again as root
in order for
tomcat41ctl to be found in your search path.
Then execute:
# tomcat41ctl start
