We’ll assume here that you already installed a Unix operating system, or Linux.<\/p>\n
I’m using CentOS 5.0 (linux) on this example.<\/p>\n
In addition I’m assuming that Apache , php and mysql is already installed, as well as phpMyAdmin since all of them came standard with most Linux.<\/p>\n
Although we are not using any of those directlly on our application, we’ll use phpMyAdmin as a visual tool to connect with MySql, but in order to run phpMyAdmin you have to have Apache with php \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Let’s start by downloading Tomcat and Java for Linux<\/p>\n
If you are logged in your Lunux through ssh terminal, simply use the following commands:<\/p>\n
this is for tomcat<\/p>\n
wget http:\/\/apache.g5searchmarketing.com\/tomcat\/tomcat-5\/v5.5.27\/bin\/apache-tomcat-5.5.27.tar.gz<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n or click here to download the file i used (Tomcat)<\/a><\/p>\n this is for java<\/p>\n wget http:\/\/cds.sun.com\/is-bin\/INTERSHOP.enfinity\/WFS\/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site\/en_US\/-\/USD\/VerifyItem-Start\/jre-6u14-linux-i586-rpm.bin?BundledLineItemUUID=63tIBe.l9l4AAAEhrxM_7Kzm&OrderID=f.5IBe.lA4MAAAEhlhM_7Kzm&ProductID=hhNIBe.pzioAAAEhP1UP5zfr&FileName=\/jre-6u14-linux-i586-rpm.bin<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n or click here to download the file I used (Java)<\/a><\/p>\n Or just go to their sites and download them from there.<\/p>\n For Java, we are using the pre-zipped auto-executable rpm file.<\/p>\n This means, that first we’ll give the file the mode to be executed<\/p>\n chmod +x jre-6u14-linux-i586-rpm.bin<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n .\/jre-6u14-linux-i586-rpm.bin<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n and them we execute it to install (you don’t need to rung the rpm command, it’s done automatically). This script install Java in the following directory\u00a0\/usr\/java\/default<\/strong>\/.<\/p>\n Now let’s untar Tomcat. For compatibility reasons, let’s put it under the following directory:\u00a0\/usr\/tomcat\/default\/<\/strong> , but actually we untar it under \/user\/tomcat\/apache-tomcat-5.5.27\/ and later we create the symbolic link “default” to that particular directory.<\/p>\n tar xzf apache-tomcat-5.5.27.tar.gz<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n ln -s apache-tomcat-5.5.27\/ default<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Now, let’s configure the operating system with the appropriate global variables<\/p>\n At the end of the \/etc\/profile (file) we add the following commands:<\/p>\n export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/java\/default<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n export CATALINA_HOME=\/usr\/tomcat\/default<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n We’ll assume here that you already installed a Unix operating system, or Linux.
