Configuration

Setup

• 1.) Go to the Administration gui for the servlet container.
• 2.) Go to the Environment Entries for your context. In Tomcat this is Service->Host(LocalHost)->{context name}->Resources->Environment entries.
• 3.) Change all the environment entries, to have the community id, and the endpoints to the registry, also define the registry identifier for a vospace/myspace used for accounts. (Hit Save after each of your changes, see "Note" at the end of this section.)
• 4.) After Environment Entries are changed go to the "DataSources" (same area as Environment Entries) (see the sample DataSource config below.) Because of a resource-ref element inside the web.xml a DataSource with only a name filled out may be present.
• 5.) Change the URL to not have "@WORKDIR@" but to a appropriate directory that will keep your database data and information. (Hit Save)
• 6.) In Tomcat hit "Commit Changes" at the top.
• 7.) Open up a web browser and go to your new community ex: http://localhost:8080/{context}
• 8.) Go to the Admin pages, there it will report if your database is healthy or not, if this is the first time then it should NOT be healthy.
• 9.) If not healthy go to "Reset DB" this essentially deletes everything from the db and recreates all tables and a small amount of test data to check if it is healthy. (This of course assumes if your not using hsqldb that you gave the user permission to create tables, if not you will need to take the sql file and create tables manually. See below on "Customize")
• 10.) Reset the db and verify it is healthy, a message should say if it is healthy or not.
• 11.) Now click on "Register Metadata" Fill in the Form details and the version of the type of Registry you wish to publish/register to. (hit Submit). Normal current registry version in use is 0.10
• 12.) Verify the XML looks correct and hit (Register).
• 13.) Your Setup is now complete you may begin adding accounts, groups, and others.
