Install Tomcat

  1. Visit Tomcat Official Site
  2. Select the correct binary distribution for your environment and download
    Here we use Apache-tomcat-6.0.29

Deploy

Deploy ZK demo application(optional)

The simplest way to test drive ZK existed application is to download and install the ZK demo application.

This step is optional. You could skip it if you prefer to start creating your own application directly.

  1. Download lastest zkdemo at http://sourceforge.net/projects/zk1/files/ZK/ (e.g. zk-demo-5.0.4.zip)
  2. Unzip zk-demo-5.0.4.zip
  3. Copy zkdemo.war under the zk-demo-5.0.4 directory to $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps.
  4. Start/ReStart the tomcat services (In some cases, you may need to restart your container if it is running.)
  5. Visit http://localhost:8080/zkdemo, and then play around with the demo application

Deploy your first application(optional)

We created a simple ZK war file in previous chapter - Create Your First ZK Application

  • Now deploy it to you web container.
    1. Copy myZK.war to $TOMCAT_HOME[1]\webapps
    2. Start/Restart the tomcat services
      (In some cases, you may need to restart your container if it is running.)
    3. Then, you can see the result by visiting http://localhost:8080/myZK/hello.zul (Tomcat services' default port is 8080)

  1. Default : C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0



Notice

Deploy war file to Tomcat is very easy but there're something you need to know

  • Tomcat will unzip the war file to filename\ directory automatically
  • You can NOT modify the content of filename\ directory unless you remove the war file, or your modification will not work.
  • For more information about Tomcat's deployer, please refer to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/deployer-howto.html
