Configuration: - If this app is run under Tomcat, ensure that WEB-INF/web.xml has the correct datasource reference. No other settings in this file need to be changed. - Set the database configuration correctly in META-INF/context.xml - Set 'File' property in log4j.xml to set the log file path. Building and deploying the war: - Set 'web.deploy.dir' property in build.properties - Once the above configs are set, build and deploy the war using 'deploy-war' task. This will copy the war file to the configured 'web.deploy.dir' - Start the server if not yet started. Logs will be written to the configured path in log4j.xml Deploying the unwrapped war without building: - Set the config files listed in the Configuration section in the given unwrapped war folder. - Copy this folder under the appropriate web app folder. e.g. For Tomcat under Tomcat\webapps. - Start the server if not yet started. Logs will be written to the configured path in log4j.xml. Invoking methods: There should be no errors in the log file. Now, you are all set to start testing the metadata manager via this web app. Check 'Sample URLs.txt' for description of the available methods and sample urls. Notes: - Make sure ojdbc.jar is under \common\lib in case of Tomcat 5.5 and under lib in case of Tomcat 6.0
