The code and templates are in framework/appserver/wasce2. Of course, this works under Linux and Windows as well.

Install

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/wasce/V2.WASCE WASCE 2.0.0/en/quick-start.html^{Image Removed}.1 or Geronimo 2.0.3 (see link above)1.1
If needed, refer to documentation using bread crumbs links in the web page above (WASCE 2.0 Documentation > Index > Content > Setup > Choosing an installation bundle) or/and use Geronimo documentation : http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC20/

• At this stage, don't try to install and use Eclipse plugins. They are the moment I tested, Eclipse plugins where not working. They were not up to date yet, and will not be of a great help in our case anyway (I tried them, and lost some time around this)

• After installation, you may set your GERONIMO_HOME env var. But you might prefer to set it in the appserver.properties file. In the same time check the content of this file and adapt it suiting your needs. If present GERONIMO_HOME env var is not overloaded by geronimoHome appserver.properties value.

...

I should mention that it seems to me that deploying with a server already running (offline=false in appserver.properties) is faster but I did not measure exactly yet. Anyway, you need to deploy offline the 1st time you deploy since you need to put in the geronimo script (.bat or .sh) the generated and mandatory informations found in META-INF/README before running the server. Else OFBiz modules will not load and the server will hang.

Also beware Beware that this module use the strings "/framework/", "/applications/", "/specialpurpose/" and "/hot-deploy/" to find location of files. So if you have a such string in your OFBiz path you will encouter an issue.
Also if you have developed some new applications you may have to adapt application.xml and geronimo-application.xml to suit your needs.

Run

• Then if you launch the WASCE server using regular command (or running "Geronimo run" from GERONIMO_HOME\bin) it should start with OFBiz modules loaded. For obvious port conflicts reason, don't run standard OFBiz at the same time.
  • If you run the Geronimo script from GERONIMO_HOME\bin

    Code Block
    geronimo run

    with the geronimo (and possibly setenv) script modified following instructions in the README file you will see what happens. This is why I think it's a preferable way of launching the server.
