Tomcat Install On OpenBSD

Posted by timothy on from the feed-back dept.

Dan writes "Adam Getchell has published instructions on installing Tomcat on OpenBSD in the form of install logs. The config is setup as non-root so that anyone can start/stop Tomcat. He has not tried loading any EJB's and is playing with Cocoon to make the setup work with XML publishing framework. Adam is looking for feedback relating to his setup."

    ...He has not tried loading any EJB's...

    Hope he is not dissapointed with failure. As far as I know, Tomcat is not an EJB container.

      You're absolutely correct. Tomcat is not (and will likely never be) an EJB container. It's a very nice Servlet container, though...

      However, once Tomcat's installed, it wouldn't be a big leap to then install JBoss to work in tandem with Tomcat, providing those missing EJB container services. It seems like a very nice package.

      You can accomplish anything you set your mind to. The impossible just takes a little longer.
