Integrating with Apache Tomcat

When hosted in Tomcat, WebORB plugs in as a servlet packaged in a J2EE web application. Follow the steps below to install WebORB into Tomcat:

  1. Copy weborb.war into the [TOMCAT-INSTALL-DIR]\webapps folder, where [TOMCAT-INSTALL-DIR] is the Tomcat's installation directory.
     
  2. When you run Tomcat, it deploys the web application from the WebORB war file (it may take a moment for Tomcat to unpack the WAR file). Once started, WebORB management console is available at the following URL:

    http://<tomcat hostname>:8080/weborb

Alternatively, to avoid the process of unpacking of the WAR file, you can expand the contents of weborb.war into a folder under [TOMCAT-INSTALL-DIR]\webapps. For instance, if the folder is weborb302, then the WebORB server would be available at  http://<tomcat hostname>:8080/weborb302
