Deploying the OJB Console

Deploying the OJB Console to Tomcat 4

These instructions are for deploying OJB Console to Tomcat 4 w/JDK 1.4. This has been verified on both Windows and Linux systems.

Hot Deploy

Some configurations allow for a hot-deploy, where you just copy the objc.war file into the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory.

Normal Deploy

  1. Modify server.xml

    Add an entry in the TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml for the ojbc context. Here is an example: 
    <Context docBase="ojbc" path="/ojbc" reloadable="true"  />

  2. Deploy the war

    Expand the .war under the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory. The directory structure should look like this when finished: 
    TOMCAT_HOME
| ---- + webapps
          + ---- ojbc
                  + ---- WEB-INF

  3. Restart Tomcat

    Restart the servlet engine.


  4. Browse the url

    Point your favorite browser at: http://<host>:<port>/ojbc. For example: http://localhost:8080/ojbc
