Tomcat Integration
The following guide explains how to deploy ServiceMix 2.0.x on the Apache Tomcat application server. This guide provides instructions specifically for ServiceMix 2.0.x release, however, go here for instructions for ServiceMix 1.1 and ServiceMix 2.0.
Pre-Installation Requirements
The recommended software environment is:
...
- Windows XP
- Tomcat 5.5
- Java 5
- ServiceMix 2.0.1
Deploying ServiceMix on Tomcat
Execute the following steps to deploy ServiceMix on Apache Tomcat. Note: this procedure will work on Unix platforms as well as the Windows platform, with the appropriate substitutions, such as using the backslash instead of the forward slash.
- Apache Tomcat must be downloaded and installed. For instructions please see the Tomcat web site.
- By default Tomcat uses port 8080. Please note if your installation has Tomcat on another port, such as port 80.
- Download and build the ServiceMix source code. Please see the Getting Started guide for instructions.
Note: ServiceMix must be BUILT as well as downloaded. - Create the WAR file:
whereCode Block cd [servicemix_install_dir]\tooling\servicemix-web maven war
servicemix_install_dir
is the directory in which ServiceMix was downloaded and installed. - To deploy the WAR file,
servicemix-web.war
, copy it to the Tomcatwebapps
directory. For example, on a Windows system:
whereCode Block cd [servicemix_install_dir]\tooling\servicemix-web\target copy servicemix-web.war [tomcat_install_dir]\webapps
tomcat_install_dir
is the directory in which Tomcat was installed. - Stop and start Tomcat to deploy the ServiceMix WAR file.
- If there are errors indicating missing classes when Tomcat starts, perform the followng steps:
- Stop Tomcat.
- Install additional jar files in the deployed ServiceMix directory. The missing jar files are:
commons-collections-3.1.jar
andcommons-pool-1.2.jar
. These can be obtained by using a search engine and searching for them. Or they can found in your Maven repository, which is usually located inyour_home_dir\.maven\repository
. Specifically,your_home_dir\.maven\repository\commons-collections\jars
andyour_home_dir\.maven\repository\commons-pool\jars
.Code Block copy commons-collections-3.1.jar [tomcat_install_dir]\webapps\servicemix-web\WEB-INF\lib copy commons-pool-1.2.jar [tomcat_install_dir]\webapps\servicemix-web\WEB-INF\lib
- Start Tomcat.
The Tomcat console output should show ServiceMix starting:
