| A simple web-app showing how to use maven, struts2, site-mesh, mysql/hsqldb,openejb with tomcat |
| This application allows you to insert, find and findAll users. It uses one @Entity named User |
| and uses a @Local @Stateless session bean to insert, find and find all User's. |
| |
| To run this example, perform the following steps:- |
| 1. Install latest Tomcat |
| 2. Deploy OpenEJB WAR in tomcat |
| 3. Open <<tomcat-install>>/conf/tomcat-users.xml and add the following user |
| <user username="admin" password="" roles="manager"/> |
| 4. Run the following command while in the struts directory |
| mvn clean install war:exploded tomcat:deploy |
| 5. The above will deploy this web application to tomcat. |
| 6. To test the application, open a web browser and navigate to |
| http://localhost:8080/struts |
| 7. Use the links on the homepage to add, find and list users |
| |
| By default this example uses hsqldb database whose data should be stored under |
| <<tomcat-install>>/data |
| |
| If you want to use mysql, then open persistence.xml (its under src/main/resources/META-INF) and |
| comment out the <persistence-unit> section for hsqldb and uncomment the one for mysql. Read the |
| comments in persistence.xml for further instructions |
| |
| Once you make the change, you would need to redeploy the application. Run the following command |
| mvn clean install war:exploded tomcat:redeploy |
