The Geronimo server can be installed using the Geronimo Eclipse Plugin, or optionally you may install the manually. To install it manually, download the Geronimo 2.1.1 server from http://wwwgeronimo.apache.org/dist/geronimo/downloads.html and extract the archive to a directory of your choice (for e.g. C:\g). The archive will be extracted to a directory geronimo-tomcat6-javaee5-2.1.1 (for e.g. C:\g\geronimo-tomcat6-javaee5-2.1.1) or geronimo-jetty6-javaee5-2.1.1 depending on whether you downloaded Geronimo 2.1.1 distribution with Tomcat or Jetty as the web container. We will refer to this directory as <geronimo_home> from now on.
