Installation on UNIX Platforms

This document provides information on how to install the web archive file into an existing servlet engine. The web archive for the Application Designer web application is deployable into any servlet container including BEA WebLogic, IBM Websphere, JBoss, Sun IPlanet, SAP Web Application Server, and others.

The following topics are covered:


Installing the Environment Components

We assume that you have already installed the environment components on your own:

  • J2SE

  • Tomcat or any other servlet container

See also: Hardware and Software Requirements.

Contact Software AG support in case of problems when installing these base components.

Installing Application Designer

The web archive installation file (citv<nn>.war in the \UNIX\CIT directory of the Application Designer CD-ROM) is required for installation. It must be deployed in your application server.

Example for Tomcat:

  • Your Tomcat installation has a webapps directory in which typically all web applications are installed. Just copy the citv<nn>.war file into this directory. Tomcat will automatically extract the file and internally create and start a corresponding web application.
