The Nautilus application development team recently finished the beta version of one of their Java-based applications, which they are planning to deploy on one of the app servers in Stratos DC. After an internal team meeting, they have decided to use the tomcat application server.
Tasks:
Install tomcat server on `App Server 21.
Configure it to run on port 5002.
There is a ROOT.war file on Jump host at location /tmp.
Deploy it on this tomcat server and make sure the webpage works directly on base URL i.e curl http://stapp01:5002
ssh tony@172.16.238.10
which tomcat
/usr/bin/which: no tomcat in (/home/steve/.local/bin:/home/steve/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin)
sudo dnf install -y tomcat
vi /etc/tomcat/server.xml
<Connector port="5002" protocol="HTTP/1.1" <- changed to 8084
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443"
maxParameterCount="1000"
/>
sudo systemctl start tomcat
sudo systemctl status tomcat

sudo scp /tmp/ROOT.war tony@172.16.238.10:/tmp/ROOT.war <- run from the jump host
sudo cp /tmp/ROOT.war /usr/share/tomcat/webapps/ <- run from app server 1
curl http://stapp01:5002
