Deploy Cloud Pier Core

(Deploy Cloud Pier Core if you only want the core functionalities withoud the UI)

Requirements

• cloud4soa.soa.WAR file generated with build of Cloud Pier Core
• Database already set up
• Apache Tomcat version 7 with MySQL JDBC Connector in the classpath.

Instructions for Apache Tomcat

Building Cloud Pier Core through Maven is generating cloud4soa.soa.WAR file. Cloud Pier is tested to work properly with Apache Tomcat 7.0.x. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/introduction.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/setup.html

The produced war file doesn't include the MySQL JDBC Connector in the classpath. So you have to download and manually add the MySQL JDBC Connector in the servlet container. For Apache Tomcat this means putting mysql-connector-java-5.x.xx-bin.jar in the lib folder of Apache Tomcat. http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/

It’s recommended to configure your application server with at least 512 Mb memory minimum heap sizes, to avoid cloud4SOA to run out of memory. In order to do so, you need to define, before to start tomcat, the system variable CATALINA_OPTS with the following value: CATALINA_OPTS= “-Xms512m ” The only other requirement to run Cloud4SOA application is to have a working Internet connection.
