How do I install OpenCms?
OpenCms (as of version 8.0.1) was designed to work with Tomcat 5.5. Newer
versions of Tomcat will likely work but you may run into some problems.
The initial install uses around 230MB of memory and uses around 400MB of
disk space so having a corporate level account or higher is highly recommended.
1) Email support@kattare.com or call us to request the following for the setup.
a) A new database for OpenCms
b) MAC address of your webserver
c) Your MySQL server host name (if you don't already know it)
2) Download the OpenCms zip ( http://www.opencms.org/en/download/opencms.html )
From the SSH shell you can use wget with the direct link to the download.
user@webserver:~$ wget http://www.opencms.org/downloads/opencms/opencms_8.0.1.zip
Note: You should download the latest stable release, 8.0.1 is the latest stable
when this FAQ entry was made.
3) Unzip the opencms.war from the zip file
user@webserver:~$ unzip opencms_8.0.1.zip
4) Move the opencms.war file into the appBase for your domain.
user@webserver:~$ mv opencms.war mydomain_com-webapps/
5) Tomcat should automatically deploy this war so you should now be able to
access the setup wizard with something like the following
http://mydomain.com/opencms/setup/
6) During the database setup step enter your database username and password in
both the setup and user fields and the newly created database as the database
name.
For the JDBC url you will need to replace localhost with your database server
name such as dc2-mysql-04.kattare.com.
When the setup process asks you to drop the already created database
answer yes.
7) Proceed with the rest of the setup! Once OpenCms starts importing modules it
will take some time so have patience.
8) Read the security issues section of the official installation instructions
found here.
