alternative to urlZipInstaller

[Paul Hammes]

Hi,

I'am using the cargo plugin with tomcat5x. The only way I found to install tomcat is using the zipUrlInstaller as defined in the documentation.
see: http://cargo.codehaus.org/Installer

I did some changes to the tomcat5x package (using the VirtualClassLoader from Tomcat6 for our project) and want to load it from our repository. Is there another solution to solve this issue?

Cheers

Paul

Can't you just zip up your modified package, put it on a web host, and  
change the installUrl?

Hi Alexander,

my project admin doesn't want to have this zip installed on a web host. He wants it in the same repository as all other resources.

Cheers

Cant you just copy the artifacts into the place the installer installs  
it?

I have something similar and I have antrun execution that copies the  
stuff into installer location prior to the cargo:start. The install  
location is somewhere under target, not on the right machine at the  
moment so cant give you the specifics.

what kind of repository is it? what type of file is it? etc...
I don't know exactly what you are trying to do.

I assume by 'repository' here you mean your source code repo, such as
Subversion.

Where is the file relative to your project code?  Would
file://${basedir}/path/to/file.zip work?

There are other ways to load Tomcat though, including expecting it to
be installed on the build machine and pointing at that local
installation.

Well, if you are running subversion you usually have http access to  
the artifacts in your repository. So you could probably add that zip  
file to the repo as a binary, and fetch it directly from http://svnhost/trunk/myproject/apache-tomcat-5.5.zip
