Failed Nuxeo 5.3 RC1 Install on Apache Tomcat

[alacazam]

Hi There

 

I tried Nuxeo 5.3 RC1 today. I work in an Apache Tomcat environment (no JBoss). So was hoping that 5.3 RC1 would fix the problems that we had in 5.2 with Tomcat installation.

 

Sadly I was still not able to get the tomcat distribution to work. Our environment is Tomcat 6.0.20, Windows XP SP4, Sun JDK 6.0 update 16. I had hoped as this was a promised feature in Nuxeo 5.2 that it would be resolved by 5.3 RC1. We are still hoping you will be able to sort this out for the 5.3 Final release.

 

I have provided details of our setup and the problems we experienced in JIRA - http://jira.nuxeo.org/browse/NXP-4173. It appears that there are a number of jars, and datasources missing, and an incorrect jar reference in context.xml. But even with these fixed, I am still getting additional errors.

 

I assume you have had this up and working on Tomcat, is there anything I am missing? The Tomcat installation instructions in /nuxeo/nuxeo-distribution/README.txt for the Tomcat install are rather sparse, and we could not find any more detailed information in the online documentation. So we assume we have installed Nuxeo correctly.

 

It would be great to see some more documentation on using Nuxeo with Tomcat and Jetty, both for development, and in a production environment.

 

And any help/advice you could offer on Tomcat installation would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

Hi,

The tomcat distribution does not (currently) run a full DM : but only Core + WebEngine.

We are currently working on having EP or DM deploy in Tomcat as it does in Jetty.
There is a lot of work because we have make all services run without a Transaction Manager and without any JEE features (like JCA connector).
This should be ready for the GA.

Nevertheless, keep in mind that Tomcat has no transaction manager and then is not safe (+ no JCA connector).
We may publish a tomcat bundle that include a Tx manager in the next weeks.
