103 The <a href="manager-howto.html">Tomcat Manager</a> is a web

106 applications.

109 There are a number of ways to perform deployment that rely on
110 the Manager web application. Apache Tomcat provides tasks

132 distribution, and must therefore be downloaded separately from

136 <p>
137 TCD has prerequisites of Apache Ant 1.6.2+ and a Java installation.
138 Your environment should define an ANT_HOME environment value pointing to
139 the root of your Ant installation, and a JAVA_HOME value pointing to
140 your Java installation. Additionally, you should ensure Ant's ant
141 command, and the Java javac compiler command run from the command shell
142 that your operating system provides.

155 In talking about deployment of web applications, the concept of a
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]156 <i>Context</i> is required to be understood. A Context is what Tomcat
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]157 calls a web application.
158 </p>
159 <p>
160 In order to configure a Context within Tomcat a <i>Context Descriptor</i>
161 is required. A Context Descriptor is simply an XML file that contains
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]162 Tomcat related configuration for a Context, e.g naming resources or
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]163 session manager configuration. In earlier versions of
164 Tomcat the content of a Context Descriptor configuration was often stored within
165 Tomcat's primary configuration file <i>server.xml</i> but this is now
166 discouraged (although it currently still works).
167 </p>
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]168 <p>
169 Context Descriptors not only help Tomcat to know how to configure
170 Contexts but other tools such as the Tomcat Manager and TCD often use
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]171 these Context Descriptors to perform their roles properly.
172 </p>

176 <ol>
177 <li>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/[webappname].xml</li>
178 <li>$CATALINA_BASE/webapps/[webappname]/META-INF/context.xml</li>
179 </ol>
180 <p>
181 Files in (1) are named [webappname].xml but files in (2) are named
182 context.xml. If a Context Descriptor is not provided for a Context,
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]183 Tomcat configures the Context using default values.

287 Tomcat Client Deployer. This is a package which can be used to
288 validate, compile, compress to .WAR, and deploy web applications to
289 production or development Tomcat servers. It should be noted that this feature
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]290 uses the Tomcat Manager and as such the target Tomcat server should be
291 running.

295 It is assumed the user will be familiar with Apache Ant for using the TCD.
296 Apache Ant is a scripted build tool. The TCD comes pre-packaged with a
297 build script to use. Only a modest understanding of Apache Ant is
298 required (installation as listed earlier in this page, and familiarity
299 with using the operating system command shell and configuring
300 environment variables).

刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]304 The TCD includes Ant tasks, the Jasper page compiler for JSP compilation
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]305 before deployment, as well as a task which
306 validates the web application Context Descriptor. The validator task (class
307 <code>org.apache.catalina.ant.ValidatorTask</code>) allows only one parameter:
308 the base path of an exploded web application.

刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]313 properties used below). A web application that is programmatically

322 <li>
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]323 <code>compile</code> (default): Compile and validate the web
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]324 application. This can be used standalone, and does not need a running
325 Tomcat server. The compiled application will only run on the associated
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]326 <em>Tomcat&nbsp;X.Y.Z</em> server release, and is not guaranteed to work
327 on another Tomcat release, as the code generated by Jasper depends on its runtime
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]328 component. It should also be noted that this target will also compile
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]329 automatically any Java source file located in the

342 In order for the deployment to be configured, create a file
343 called <code>deployer.properties</code> in the TCD installation
344 directory root. In this file, add the following name=value pairs per

刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]349 Additionally, you will need to ensure that a user has been
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]350 setup for the target Tomcat Manager (which TCD uses) otherwise the TCD
351 will not authenticate with the Tomcat Manager and the deployment will
