Description

I need to deploy a tool for the Parthenos project. More information can be found in #558.
Documentation for the installation can be found in the zip file linked in #558 and, for simplicity, also in the document attached to this ticket.

In summary, the tool requires:

  1. an eXistDB server (installed as specified in the documentation, command line version are suggested in #558#note-3)
  2. tomcat7
  3. #558#note-5 reveals that we might need to create a gmail account to allow the tool to send emails to users

As for hw requirements, the partner who made the tool suggested:

Regarding the windows installation, the main restriction is that it is for 64 bit machines. RAM of 4G would be nice, CPU no requirements! A decent machine will do :-)

If 4GB are fine for windows, they'll be fine on Ubuntu as well :-)

For the disk space, no big requirements. I think we can start with 20/30 GB. If we'll need more space we will ask...

A possible machine name can be mappings.parthenos.XXX

The machine is ready.
Your user is alessia.bardi, you can start/stop the tomcat and exist services running the commands

sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat-instance-8280 {start/stop/restart/status}
sudo /etc/init.d/eXist-db {start/stop/restart/status}

Tomcat lives in /var/lib/tomcat_dnet/8280 while exist lives inside /usr/lib/exist/db
Both services run as 'dnet' user, you have read/write access to the exist db directory and to the tomcat webapps dir

Which port is exist listening to? (I can't netstat)

Actions #5

Updated by Andrea Dell'Amico about 10 years ago

exist is listening on the 8080 tcp port, the default one.

Thanks Andrea, I managed to configure the two webapps that must run on tomcat and imported the needed files in the exist collection.
Now let's wait for #893 for instructions on how to configure the mail notifier of the webapp.
