This document provides instructions for building the complete GreenPages application and running it in Virgo Tomcat Server.
To get the completed GreenPages application, including tests and explanatory skeleton parts:
download the latest Zip file from
http://eclipse.org/virgo/download/
extract all the files from the Zip file to a convenient directory (preserving the directory structure).
To extract the files on Windows:
prompt> mkdir c:\springsource\samples prompt> cd c:\springsource\samples prompt> jar xf c:\path\to\greenpages-2.5.0.RELEASE.zip prompt> set GREENPAGES_HOME=c:\springsource\samples\greenpages-2.5.0.RELEASE
To extract the files on Unix systems:
prompt$ mkdir -p /opt/springsource/samples prompt$ cd /opt/springsource/samples prompt$ unzip /path/to/greenpages-2.5.0.RELEASE.zip prompt$ export GREENPAGES_HOME=/opt/springsource/samples/greenpages-2.5.0.RELEASE
The environment variable GREENPAGES_HOME set here is not used by the projects, but is used as a shorthand
in the instructions that follow.
The GreenPages Zip file contains several directories with names that start greenpages.
They contain the completed application which can be built and tested (as described in the next section).
