 How to install Talend BPM on Tomcat

1.       Download ApacheTomcat6  zip folder from the following web site.

http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi

Unzip into a folder and use this path as <TOMCAT_HOME>

2.       Download server files

Go to http://www.bonitasoft.com/products/BPM_downloads/all

In the bundle section on the page, download the deploy zip for your version

3.       For Talend 5.3 we need to download  BOSVersion5.10 i.e BOS-5.10-deploy.

4.       Unzip the file into the folder of your choice.

This location path will be referenced as <Talend BPM-DEPLOY> in the installation guides.

5.       Copy Talend conf folders

copy <Talend BPM-DEPLOY>\conf\bonita to <TOMCAT_HOME>\bonita
copy <Talend BPM-DEPLOY>\conf\external to <TOMCAT_HOME>\external

6.       Copy BPM Execution Engine libraries

·         Create a folder <TOMCAT_HOME>\lib\bonita.

·         Copy all *.jar files from

·         <Talend BPM-deploy>\bonita_execution_engine\engine\libs

·         <Talend BPM-deploy>\bonita_execution_engine\bonita_client\libs

·         NOTE: Please overwrite duplicate files if any.

7.    Modify <TOMCAT_HOME>\conf\catalina.properties  by adding ${catalina.home}/lib/bonita/*.jar to the property common.loader

Result:

common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/
lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib/bonita/*.jar

8.       Deploy User Experience web application (*.war file)

Copy

<Talend BPM-5.3 DEPLOY>\bonita_user_experience\without_execution_engine_without_client\bonita.war

to

<TOMCAT_HOME>\webapps

Important for Talend BPM: Remove the jdtcore*.jar file

To do this, open the bonita.war file (using an unzip tool) and remove jdt-core*.jar from the WEB-INF/lib folder.

9.        Define system variables

To configure Talend, system variables need to be defined. To do that, use a setenv script.

                For Windows:

 create <TOMCAT_HOME>\bin\setenv.bat to set variables:

Copy the following content into setenv.bat file and save it.

@echo on

rem Sets some variables
set BONITA_HOME="-DBONITA_HOME=%CATALINA_HOME%\bonita"
set LOG_OPTS="-Djava.util.logging.config.file=%CATALINA_HOME%\external\logging\logging.properties"
set SECURITY_OPTS="-Djava.security.auth.login.config=%CATALINA_HOME%\external\security\jaas-standard.cfg"

set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% %LOG_OPTS% %SECURITY_OPTS% %BONITA_OPTS% %BONITA_HOME% -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xshare:auto
-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
