Can someone help & assist me how to install tomcat into Open SUSE 10.3 64bit, i still new to Linux. Please show me step by step how to do it, thanks....
First you need to install the latest version of java. Then download the tomcat from apache site. create a user tomcat. unzip the tomcat zip file to the tomcat user home directory it will be likr /home/tomcat/tomcat. Now you have to set the env variables. in .bash_profile of the tomcat user. add the following lines JAVA_HOME="/path/to/your/java/instllation/directory" export JAVA_HOME CATALINA_HOME="/home/tomcat/tomcat" export CATALINA_HOME now you can start tomcat To start tomcat go to /home/tomcat/tomcat/conf/catlina.sh if ur setup is fine your telnet to port 8080 should connect you there. and if you browse http://localhost:8080 you should get the default tomcat page.
