Setup Tomcat
Similar to Eclipse, Tomcat also is also packaged without an installer. For windows we download the x86 .zip and for Linux or Unix download the .tar.gz file. Following the Bonsai Framework standards, decompress to the following folder,
- C:\apps\eclipse-servers\apache-tomcat-6.0.24
- /home/tpham/apps/eclipse-servers/apache-tomcat-6.0.24
Launch Eclipse
Start Eclipse by running the Eclipse executable included with the release. In our example the directories would be,
- Windows = C:\apps\eclipse\eclipse.exe
- Linux or Unix = /home/tpham/apps/eclipse/eclipse
If using Mac OS X you may will recieve an error due to modification of the STSeclipse.ini file,
