Deploying a Webapp on our system is very straight
forward. Simply dump your .WAR file into the root
folder /var/www/html and restart your Tomcat.
Your application will be visible right away on
the web. Our system supports multiple .war file
deployment so you can upload and deploy multiple
war files at once or seperately.
Restarting Tomcat
Since you have Private JVM and SSH Access you
can restart your own tomcat by login in to your
account via shell. Once you're there simply type
these 3 lines to restart your Tomcat instance
./stop - to stop tomcat
./start - to start tomcat
./restart - to restart tomcat
This is a private JVM thus other users restarting
their JVMs will not effect your Tomcat server
or your applications.
Apache
There is no need to restart apache, Tomcat will
automatically pickup and deploy your app after
JVM restart.
Customize your server configuration
You'll have full access to server .xml so you
can customize your configuration if you need to,
to suit your particular application.
How's Tomcat environment at your server different
than mine at home? Untitled Document
DIFFERENCES
OUR SERVER
@HOME UNIX
@HOME WINDOWS
Path Definitions
/home/user/tomcat4/
/home/user/tomcat4/
c:\tomcat4\
Location of .war file
/var/www/html/
/home/user/tomcat4/webapps/
c:\tomcat4\webapps\
If your application works on your home server
it will work on our server too providing you've modified paths and .war
file location (for Windows users)
Run your Webapps from subdomains
Your account comes with
unlimited subdomains all with Java capabilities.
This allows you to run different applications
through different subdomains. It also means you
can keep your site at the current host and only
host your Java app on a subdomain with Oxxus.
Learn more about running
Java from a subdomain.
Develop your apps on the server directly
We provide Java compiler (javac) so you can modify/edit
your applications/website on our server directly
without having to install Tomcat at home first.
