ART update tomcat

Update tomcat and the ART-DECOR orbeon web archive

Tomcat software releases are quite frequent so when updating the ART-DECOR orbeon web archive, you usually should upgrade tomcat to the latest version. Note that you should inform your users about service downtime since this step requires a tomcat stop and start. This action could take 15 to 30 minutes (depending on the speed with which you edit the ART-DECOR Orbeon configuration). For updating both tomcat and the ART-DECOR orbeon web archive art-decor.war, follow the installation procedure:

• for MAC OS X: ART installation manual#Download and install Apache Tomcat
• for linux: ART-DECOR installation on linux#Apache Tomcat installation

Update only the ART-DECOR orbeon web archive

Note that you should inform your users about service downtime since this step requires a tomcat stop and start. This action could take 15 to 30 minutes (depending on the speed with which you edit the ART-DECOR Orbeon configuration). For running updates for just the ART-DECOR orbeon web archive art-decor.war, the following process can be performed:

• download a new version: see ART installation orbeon
• save it by overwriting the existing .war
• stop and start tomcat
• edit ART-DECOR Orbeon configuration:
  • for MAC OS X, see ART installation orbeon
  • or for linux, see ART-DECOR installation on linux#Edit ART-DECOR Orbeon configuration
