Step 8. Enable the DSpace Java webapps on the Java Tomcat webapp server
The DSpace webapps have been compiled in the /home/dspace/webapps folder but Tomcat only serves up webapps in the /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps folder.
So, how do we get all the files into the Tomcat webapps folder ?
There are several methods, but we are going to set it up so that if you change anything in the DSpace /home/dspace/webapps folder and re-compile then the changes automatically occur in the Tomcat /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps folder.
We create the shortcuts to the DSpace webapps in the default Tomcat webapps folder by typing as follows:
sudo cd /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps
sudo ln -s /home/dspace/webapps/oai
sudo ln -s /home/dspace/webapps/sword
sudo ln -s /usr/share/tomcat6-admin/manager
Step 8.1 Configure the default ROOT webapp
DSpace has two web interfaces, the XMLUI and the JSPUI. This procedure allows you to select which inteface will be used as the ROOT webapp. In other words, the one that does not need a /XMLUI or a /JSPUI URL addition.
Start by removing the default Tomcat ROOT webapp with the following command:
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/ROOT
Then apply one of the following.
- Please note: You can only choose one option.
Option A: Type the following to make the XMLUI the default interface.
sudo cd /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps
sudo ln -s /home/dspace/webapps/xmlui ROOT
Option B: Type the following to make the JSPUI the default interface.
sudo cd /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps
sudo ln -s /home/dspace/webapps/jspui ROOT
Previously we ran both the XMLUI and JSPUI and now only run the XMLUI as the ROOT interface. The JSPUI seemed to consume a lot of memory.
Step 8.2 Restart Tomcat Server
Type the following.
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart
Example listing of DSpace Java webapps in the Tomcat webapp folder
