WebObjects/Web Applications/Deployment/FreeBSD

Install Java Follow the FreeBSD instructions to install the native Java. I (Ari Maniatis) am still using 1.4.2 on our deployment servers, but it is likely that 1.5.x will work fine. This should also cause the javavmwrapper port to be installed. This makes it easy to switch between different Java VM versions. Install WebObjects Install gtar (the FreeBSD tar doesn't seem to work for me): portinstall gtar Mount the WebObjects CD at /mnt/cdrom and then: cd /mnt/cdrom/Deployment/SOLARIS ./install.sh -license B-111-AAA-111-AAA-111-AAA-111-AAA-111 -altjvm /usr/local/bin/javavm -adaptorsOnly NO -minimalInstall NO -cgibin /usr/local/www/cgi-bin -docroot /usr/local/www/data -woroot /usr/local/apple -gnutar /usr/local/bin/gnutar To find your license key, look in your developer installation and find it at: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaWebObjects.framework/Resources/License.key The system then needs to know where NEXT_ROOT lives: edit /etc/profile and add: NEXT_ROOT=/usr/local/apple export NEXT_ROOT OS= FREEBSD export OS Log out and then back in to make sure this takes effect. Apply updates If necessary, you can apply updates like this: sh patcher.sh -install WO51Solaris522.tar.gzip You can download the patcher.sh shell script and the gzip update from Apple's website. Install the Apache adaptor Download the binary or Compile it yourself TODO: I've tried but failed to get this working with Apache2 Configure Apache Add the configuration file: cp $NEXT_ROOT/Developer/Examples/WebObjects/Source/Adaptors/Apache/apache.conf /usr/local/etc/apache/webobjects.conf Add the line: Include /usr/local/etc/apache/webobjects.conf before* LoadModule rewrite_module Add the line: AddModule mod_WebObjects.c after* AddModule mod_rewrite.c Edit the configuration file at /usr/local/etc/apache/webobjects.conf: comment out the line "AddModule mod_WebObjects.c" replace LOCAL_LIBRARY_DIR/WebServer/Documents with /usr/local/www/data Create a startup scripts for wotaskd and javamonitor Create /usr/local/etc/rc.d/110.wotaskd.sh #!/bin/sh NEXTROOT=/usr/local/Apple case "$1" in start) if [ -x /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe ]; then export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH export NEXT_ROOT=${NEXTROOT} ${NEXTROOT}/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/wotaskd.woa/wotaskd & echo -n ' wotaskd' fi ;; stop) echo "not supported" ;; *) echo "" echo "Usage: `basename $0` { start | stop }" echo "" exit 64 ;; esac Create /usr/local/etc/rc.d/150.javamonitor.sh #!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/bin NEXTROOT=/usr/local/Apple case "$1" in start) export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH export NEXT_ROOT=${NEXTROOT} ${NEXTROOT}/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/JavaMonitor.woa/JavaMonitor -WOPort 6666 & echo -n 'JavaMonitor' ;; stop) echo "not supported" ;; *) echo "" echo "Usage: `basename $0` { start | stop }" echo "" exit 64 ;; esac
