Installation
IMPORTANT: Apache-Tomcat requires the JRE QPKG [1] to be up and running.
- Download, Install and Enable the JRE QPKG first
- Download, Install and Enable the Apache-Tomcat QPKG.
[1] JRE QPKG is available only for the x86 QNAP Platform. Please refer to the SUN Java website about the release conditions for other processors.
Apache-Tomcat Administration
In your browser enter the following address [2]:
http://<your_nas_ip>:7080/[2] Forward the port to access the Apache-Tomcat server from external network
- To change the Apache-Tomcat port, edit the section below in the conf/server.xml file:
<Connector port="7080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443" />Set up the Administrator account
If the page here above is displayed, it means that Apache-Tomcat is running.
Nevertheless don't be surprised if you cannot access the Status or the Tomcat Manager. You must first setup the Admin account.
Open the usr/local/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file using an SFTP client like Transmit(OS X) or WinSCP(Windows), and using a text editor insert the content below between the tags (change with secret):<role rolename="manager"/> <user username="manager" password="password" roles="manager"/>
- The conf/tomcat-users.xml manages all users permissions as shown in the example below:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <tomcat-users> <role rolename="manager"/> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="admin"/> <role rolename="role1"/> <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/> <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/> <user username="admin" password="admin" roles="admin,manager"/> <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/> </tomcat-users>
Adding applications
- Enter the Tomcat Manager.
- In WAR file to deploy, browse to your WAR file
- Click Deploy [1].
- Your application appears in the List Applications
- Click the link in the list or http://your_nas_ip:7080/my_application
[1] Deployed applcations are located under the Apache-Tomcat/webapps directory
IMPORTANT: Removal of the Apache-Tomcat QPKG will remove all the deployed applications and associated data.
