STEP 8: Install Tomcat

These are instructions to install the standalone Tomcat. This Tomcat should be installed after Liferay bundled with Tomcat is installed.

DOWNLOAD: apache-tomcat-6.0.20.tar.gz
FROM URL: http://tomcat.apache.org/


Install

Open a terminal window, and enter the following commands. Replace [download location] with the directory where you downloaded the software. Note that your login id will be added to the users group, and that access to the Tomcat server installation will be granted to members of the users group.

$ cd [download location]
$ sudo adduser `whoami` users
$ newgrp users
$ sudo tar -zxvf apache-tomcat-6.0.20.tar.gz -C /usr/local
$ sudo chown -R root:users /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.20
$ sudo chmod -R g=u /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.20
