Tomcat whips JBoss

In order to deploy CDOL into Tomcat 5.x:

1. download Tomcat 5.x, http://www.reverse.net/pub/apache/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.30/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz or http://www.reverse.net/pub/apache/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.30/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.zip

2. [un] tar/zip the Tomcat download.

3. modify this snippet to correctly point to the right properties file:


type="javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory"/>



factory
org.lds.jca.properties.LdapFacadeManagedConnectionFactory


PropertiesFileName
/ext/forge/unity/imsteam/build/rollinsrc.properties




4. modify "//server.xml" file by adding the above snippet, insert it after line 378 (following and before ).

5. modify "//web.xml" by replacing the "" element with:
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
keystoreFile="${user.home}/.keystore" keystorPass="yourpassword"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="SSL" />


6. copy "~/.maven/repository/commons-logging/jar/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar" into "//common/lib"

7. copy "~/.maven/repository/log4j/jars/1og4j-1.2.8.jar" into "//common/lib"

8. copy "~/.maven/repository/j2ee/jars/j2ee-1.4.jar" into "//common/lib"

9. lastly, to run the build/deploy to build the war and copy into "//webapps"

10. startup tomcat, "//bin/catalina.sh run"


Using Tomcat has sped up my build/deploy time from >=160s to <=30s, hooray for Tomcat.


NOTE:
If you're on Linux and downloaded the JDK from Sun, double-check that "javac" has executable permissions.
