EditXML: Installing the Binaries

EditXML requires a web server, a servlet engine and a JSP engine. Before updating an existing installation, please read the Release Notes.

JSP Engine Installation

In the following we describe the installation for Jakarta Tomcat and Resin JSP engines.

We assume that the JSP engine is installed and running. All required parts for the installation are contained in the editxml-<version>.tar.gz. The easiest way to install it is to

• extract the archive below the webapps of the JSP engine installation, and rename it to editxml
• Since we do not want to commit any license conflicts with used third party products, we currently do not redestribute them. Create the directory WEB-INF/lib and copy
  • struts.jar
• extract the image archive jlfgr-1_0.jar into images/jlfgr.

In the case of Resin, please create additionally the directory WEB-INF/tmp or define javax.servlet.context.tempdir in our servlet engine.
