jBPM5 Console Integration with Tomcat6
bpmn2user Dec 30, 2010 2:23 PMHere are the required steps to get the jBPM5 console running in Tomcat6
1.) Copy the console war files provided in JBPM_INSTALLER/lib into Tomcat’s webapps directory
These war files can also be downloaded from (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jbpm/files/jBPM%205/jbpm-5.0-CR1/jbpm-5.0-CR1-gwt-console.zip/download). This download has two war files jbpm-gwt-console-5.0-CR1.war and jbpm-gwt-console-server-5.0-CR1.war. Rename them to jbpm-console.war and gwt-console-server.war and copy them to TOMCAT_HOME/webapps
2.) Create users and roles in TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml.
Here is an example
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
<role rolename="tomcat"/>
<role rolename="role1"/>
<role rolename="manager"/>
<role rolename="admin"/>
<role rolename="user"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
<user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
<user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
<user username="manager" password="manager" roles="manager"/>
<user username="krisv" password="krisv" roles="manager,admin,user"/>
<user username="john" password="john" roles="manager,admin,user"/>
<user username="mary" password="mary" roles="manager,admin,user"/>
</tomcat-users>
3.) Set the jbpm.console.directory in Catalina.bat (.sh)
Here is an example.
.. -Djbpm.console.directory=C:/jbpm5/CR1/jbpm-installer/sample/evaluation/src/main/resources ..
4.) Copy JBPM_INSTALLER\jboss-4.2.3.GA server\default\data\birt into TOMCAT_HOME\birt. This will provide the reporting functionality
5.) Copy the database driver (e.g., h2.jar) and all the dependant jar files into TOMCAT_HOME/lib.
Here are the required libraries:
jbpm-persistence-jpa-5.0-CR1.jar
h2-1.2.124.jar
persistence-api-1.0.jar
geronimo-jta_1.0.1B_spec-1.0.1.jar
javassist-3.4.GA.jar
hibernate-entitymanager-3.4.0.GA.jar
hibernate-core-3.3.0.SP1.jar
hibernate-commons-annotations-3.1.0.GA.jar
hibernate-annotations-3.4.0.GA.jar
ejb3-persistence-1.0.2.GA.jar
dom4j-1.6.1.jar
commons-collections-3.1.jar
antlr-2.7.6.jar
6.) Start database:
e.g, run ‘ant h2.start’ from JBPM_INSTALLER directory
7.) Start human task, e.g., run ‘ant start.human.task’ from JBPM_INSTALLER directory
This assumes that a datasource JNDI (jdbc/testDS1) is configured in Tomcat and a transaction manager (such as Bitronix or JOTM or Atomikos etc) is configured on Tomcat.
Refer to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html for JNDI configuration on Tomcat6.
