| Running Pluto | |
| ============= | |
| This project contains pluto, the reference implementation for the | |
| Portlet API 1.0, and a test portal to run pluto. In order to install and run | |
| this container, you must do the following: | |
| (0) Download and Install a Java Development Kit | |
| * Download a Java Development Kit (JDK) release (version 1.3.1) from: | |
| http://java.sun.com/j2se/ | |
| * Install the JDK according to the instructions included with the release. | |
| * Set an environment variable JAVA_HOME to the pathname of the directory | |
| into which you installed the JDK release. | |
| (1) Download and Install the Tomcat 4.1 Binary Distribution | |
| * Download a binary distribution of Tomcat from: | |
| http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.1/ | |
| * Unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location so that the | |
| distribution resides in its own directory (conventionally named | |
| "jakarta-tomcat-4.1"). For the purposes of the remainder of this document, | |
| the symbolic name "${catalina.home}" is used to refer to the full | |
| pathname of the release directory. | |
| (2) Download Pluto | |
| * Not yet a fixed download location | |
| (3) Install Pluto | |
| * Execute /build/install.bat to install pluto into tomcat | |
| (4) Start Up Tomcat 4.1 | |
| * Please see Tomcat instructions for information | |
| (5) Run Pluto | |
| * Default url to start Pluto: | |
| http://localhost:8080/pluto/portal | |
| * In case Tomcat runs on a different port, change the port setting | |
| in ${catalina.home}/webapps/pluto/WEB-INF/config/services/ConfigService.properties | |
| (6) Deploy portlets | |
| * To install portlets after you successfully installed Pluto, | |
| copy the portlet war's to the /portlets directory and execute | |
