How to start tomcat on the 400?

[davisty]

Hello,

Im setting up JSF on our 400.

Isnt there a way to start tomcat from the 400 command line?

I remember seeing something about it, but cant find it now.

Hi davisty:

I found this:

Create a starter CL program. I called mine STRTOMCAT and it      looks like this. 
 PGM 
 MONMSG CPF0000 
 SBMJOB CMD(QSH CMD('cd /Apache/Tomcat-5.0.28;      ./startup.sh')) + 
 JOB(ENDHTTP) JOBD(QGPL/T528P80) USER(*JOBD) 
 SBMJOB CMD(QSH CMD('cd /Apache/Tomcat-5.0.28-ssl;      ./startup.sh')) + 
 JOB(ENDHTTPS) JOBD(QGPL/T528P443) USER(*JOBD) 
 STRSBS SBSD(QGPL/TOMCAT) 
 ENDPGM
 
Create an ender CL program. I called mine ENDTOMCAT and it      looks like this. 
 PGM 
 MONMSG CPF0000 
 SBMJOB CMD(QSH CMD('cd /Apache/Tomcat-5.0.28;      ./shutdown.sh')) + 
 JOB(ENDHTTP) JOBD(QGPL/T528P80) USER(*JOBD) 
 SBMJOB CMD(QSH CMD('cd /Apache/Tomcat-5.0.28-ssl;      ./shutdown.sh')) + 
 JOB(ENDHTTPS) JOBD(QGPL/T528P443) USER(*JOBD) 
 ENDSBS TOMCAT 
 ENDPGM

Thank You,

I know Ive seen some kind of cmd that is part of a strtcpsvr *http or something to that effect.

Now Im going crazy(short trip for me) ...cause I cant remember it.

STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) INSTANCE(name of the server instance)

Thank You for your reply.

By server instance, is that where tomcat goes?

Can you give an example please.

Thank You

Re: How to start tomcat on the 400?

Which OS version are you on? It hasnt been Tomcat since maybe V5R3, and I want to ensure youre not really running Apache.

You can start up the tomcat with that command as well, but its been years since I've done it. The default instance name for the tomcat server I believe was TOMCATSVR. But it may not necessarily be that name.

Re: How to start tomcat on the 400?

In part it depends on what release of IBM i you are running. Tomcat was only supported by IBM up until V5R4 - this web page talks to the options if you are on V6 or V7. http://www.mysamplecode.com/2011/09/...he-tomcat.html

Paul Holm has uploaded a video to YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N11fXnFIE1g) that shows you how to instal Tomcat etc. along with the Community Edition of WOW - I would suggest that perhaps downloading WOW to get their install script etc. might not be a bad idea.
