Introduction
The Tomcat server runs on n-9-22. I used the guide at this link https://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/linux/centos-how-tos/install-apache-tomcat-7-0-on-rhel-6-centos-6.html to setup Tomcat.
What if n-9-22 is restarted / rebooted?
Install and Set Up on TomCat
Step 1: Check the CentOS version and Java version
SmallWorld currently runs on n-9-22, which runs CentOS 6.10. You can check the version of CentOS with the following command:
cat /etc/centos-release
Check your current version of Java with the following command:
java -version
If you do not have the correct version, install it using yum. Follow the steps on this tutorial https://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/linux/centos-how-tos/install-apache-tomcat-7-0-on-rhel-6-centos-6.html
Step 2: Create Tomcat Service Account
This must be done as a root user and has already been done for n-9-22.
groupadd tomcat mkdir /opt/tomcat useradd -g tomcat -d /opt/tomcat tomcat
Step 3: Create Initialization Script to Control Apache TomCat
Download the latest version of Apache TomCat from the website https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi
vi /etc/init.d/tomcat9
Copy the bash script from here https://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/linux/centos-how-tos/install-apache-tomcat-7-0-on-rhel-6-centos-6.html
How to Restart the TomCat Server
Login to n-9-22 as root and run the screen called tomcat. You don't need to be in a screen to run this command, but I have the screen just to keep the tomcat commands in one place.
To restart, use
service tomcat9 restart
To start and stop separately, use
service tomcat9 start
service tomcat9 stop
