1. Apache Tomcat must be downloaded and installed. For instructions please see the Tomcat web site.
2. By default, Tomcat uses port 8080. Please note if your installation has Tomcat on another port, such as port 80. The port number is used in a later step.
3. Download the ServiceMix source code. Please see the Getting Started guide for instructions.
4. Create the WAR file:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]\tooling\servicemix-web maven war

   where servicemix_install_dir is the directory in which ServiceMix was downloaded and installed.
5. To deploy the WAR file, servicemix-web.war, copy it to the Tomcat webapps directory. For example, on a Windows system:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]\tooling\servicemix-web\target copy servicemix-web.war [tomcat_install_dir]\webapps

   where tomcat_install_dir is the directory in which Tomcat was installed.
   
6. To deploy the ServiceMix WAR file, stop and start Tomcat.
   The output in the Tomcat console window should show ServiceMix starting. Output will be similar to the following:

   Code Block

   NOTE: The console output is also logged in tomcat_home_dir\logs\catalina.xxxx-xx-xx.log.

...

1. Check the Tomcat console output or the Tomcat log files (see above) to confirm that the servicemix-web is starting without errors.
2. ServiceMix's default port is 1099. From another window run netstat and search for port 1099.
   From a Windows console, type:

   Code Block
   netstat -an|find "1099"

   
   OR
   
   From a Unix command shell, type:

   Code Block
   netstat -an|grep 1099

   
   
3. Run the ServiceMix JMX Console. To do this, enter the following URL in a web browser: http://localhost:8080/servicemix-web. Note: your installation of Tomcat mabye running on another port number than 8080. If that is the case replace 8080 with the correct port number in the URL.
   Optionally, look at the following in the console:
   1. Click on "Catalina".
   2. Click on "Unknown".
   3. Click on the "JMXServlet WebModule" to get monitoring information about the JMX Servlet itself:
      
      
      
      
4. An http binding example is supplied. To run the example program perform the following steps:
   1. From a browser, enter the URL http://localhost:8080/servicemix-web/examples. NOTE: If Tomcat is using a different port, such as port 80, substitute the correct port number for 8080 in the URL.
      
      
      
      
   2. Enter a name or some text in the text box (shown above) and click the Submit button. You will see:
