Deploying on LAMP server

Submitted by Roger Bordeaux on Tue, 10/02/2007 - 05:53.

Hi every one,

More aware of PHP than Java, I would like to test ActiveGrid and deploy a simple application on a LAMP server. I can't find any tutorial how to do that.

Can somebody help me for the first steps ?

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Best regards,

Roger

Thanks Ali for your answer.

I already read these threads, since it seems clear for you, I have a few more questions.

Do you need the commercial version of Active Grid Studio to deplay to a LAMP server.

What is a .WAR or a .ZIP in the deployment process ?

Also the deploy option does not create any META_INF nor WEB_INF folder.

Best regards,

Roger

Hi Roger-

 

You dont need the commercial version to deploy to LAMP, however, any custom code you add to your app would need to be in Python, not Java.

 

When you deploy to a Java Server, such as Tomcat, or WebSphere, you'd need to deploy as a .WAR file.  A .WAR file is a Web ARchive, and it contains all the guts needed to run a Java web application.  But since you'd be deploying to the LAMP Server, not a Java Server, you'd deploy to a .ZIP file, which is simply a compressed archive file, in ZIP format, of all the XML artifacts that comprise the ActiveGrid application.

 

Questions I'd ask you:

  1. Do you need to deploy to a Java, eg Tomcat server?
  2. Can you create your custom code in Python instead of Java?
  3. Do you have access to a Linux box?

Thats good to hear ;)  That means you are clear to deploy in Apache / Python mode.  Let us know of any issues that arise, when you go to deploy, and we can assist you further as need be.
