Title: Manual Installation
# Overview
The manual installation process is significantly harder then the [automatic installation](tomcat.html)
which we normally recommend. In this installation process you will do the
following:
1. Install openejb.war
1. Download openejb.war from the [download page](http://tomee.apache.org/downloads.html)
1. Make webapps/openejb directory
1. Change to new webapps/openejb directory
1. Unpack the openejb.war file in the new directory
1. Add the OpenEJB listener the conf/server.xml file
1. Update the non-compliant Tomcat annotations-api.jar
1. Add the OpenEJB JavaAgent to the bin/catalina.bat or bin/catalina.bat
script
##Install openejb.war
Once Tomcat has been [installed](tomcat-installation.html)
, the OpenEJB plugin for Tomcat can be installed. The war can be obtained
from the [download page](http://tomee.apache.org/downloads.html)
The commands in this example are executed from within the Tomcat
installation directory.

## Unpack OpenEJB Tomcat plugin in Tomcat webapps directory
Be careful, this is the most error prone step. A web
application does not contain a root directory, so if you unpack it in the
wrong directory, it is difficult to undo. Please, follow this step
closely, and most importantly make sure you execute the unpack command
from within the new webapps/openejb directory
Due to the structure of war files, you must create a new directory for
OpenEJB, change to the new directory and execute the unpack command from
within the new directory. If you get this wrong, it is difficult to undo,
so follow the steps closely.

## Add the OpenEJB listener to Tomcat
All Tomcat listener classes must be available in the Tomcat common class
loader, so the openejb-loader jar must be copied into the Tomcat lib
directory.
C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14>copy webapps\openejb\lib\openejb-loader-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar lib\openejb-loader.jar
1 file(s) copied.
apache-tomcat-6.0.14$ cp webapps/openejb/lib/openejb-loader-*.jar lib/openejb-loader.jar
Add the following `<Listener
className="org.apache.openejb.loader.OpenEJBListener" />` to your conf/server.xml file to load the OpenEJB listener:
The snippet is shown below
<!-- Note: A "Server" is not itself a "Container", so you may not
define subcomponents such as "Valves" at this
level.
Documentation at /docs/config/server.html
-->
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
<!-- OpenEJB plugin for tomcat -->
<Listener
className="org.apache.openejb.loader.OpenEJBListener" />
<!--APR library loader. Documentation at /docs/apr.html -->
<Listener
className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener" SSLEngine="on" />
<a name="ManualInstallation-UpdatetheTomcatannotations-api.jarfile"></a>
## Update the Tomcat annotations-api.jar file
Tomcat contains an old non-compliant version of the javax.annotation
classes and these invalid classes must be updated so OpenEJB can process
annotations. Simply, replace the annotations-api.jar in the Tomcat lib
directory with the updated annotations-api.jar in the OpenEJB war.
<pre><code>
C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14>copy webapps\openejb\tomcat\annotations-api.jar
lib\annotations-api.jar
Overwrite lib\annotations-api.jar? (Yes/No/All): y
1 file(s) copied.
apache-tomcat-6.0.14$ cp webapps/openejb/tomcat/annotations-api.jar
lib/annotations-api.jar
</code></pre>
<a name="ManualInstallation-{anchor:javaagent}AddOpenEJBjavaagenttoTomcatstartup"></a>
## Add OpenEJB javaagent to Tomcat startup
OpenJPA, the Java Persistence implementation used by OpenEJB, currently
must enhanced persistence classes to function properly, and this requires
the installation of a javaagent into the Tomcat startup process.
First, copy the OpenEJB JavaAgent jar into the lib directory.
<pre><code>
C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14>copy webapps\openejb\lib\openejb-javaagent-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar lib\openejb-javaagent.jar
1 file(s) copied.
apache-tomcat-6.0.14$ cp webapps/openejb/lib/openejb-javaagent-*.jar lib/openejb-javaagent.jar
</code></pre>
Simply, add the snippet marked below in
bin/catalina.bat (Windows) or bin/catalina.sh (Unix) file to enable the
OpenEJB javaagent:
if not exist "%CATALINA_BASE%\conf\logging.properties" goto noJuli
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS%
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
-Djava.util.logging.config.file="%CATALINA_BASE%\conf\logging.properties"
:noJuli
# Start of Snippet to add
rem Add OpenEJB javaagent if not exist
"%CATALINA_BASE%\webapps\openejb\lib\openejb-javaagent.jar" goto
noOpenEJBJavaagent set
JAVA_OPTS="-javaagent:%CATALINA_BASE%\webapps\openejb\lib\openejb-javaagent.jar"
%JAVA_OPTS% :noOpenEJBJavaagent
# End of Snippet to add
rem ----- Execute The Requested Command

echo Using CATALINA_BASE: %CATALINA_BASE%
echo Using CATALINA_HOME: %CATALINA_HOME%
# Set juli LogManager if it is present
if [OPENEJB: -r "$CATALINA_BASE"/conf/logging.properties ](openejb:--r-"$catalina_base"/conf/logging.properties-.html)
; then
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS
"-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager"
"-Djava.util.logging.config.file="$CATALINA_BASE/conf/logging.properties"
fi
#Start of Snippet to add
if [OPENEJB: -r "$CATALINA_BASE"/webapps/lib/openejb-javaagent.jar ](openejb:--r-"$catalina_base"/webapps/lib/openejb-javaagent.jar-.html)
; then
JAVA_OPTS=""-javaagent:$CATALINA_BASE/lib/openejb-javaagent.jar"
$JAVA_OPTS"
fi
