Tomcat lib

Some jars are needed to support running an ADF application on Tomcat. Please download the following and put in the lib folder inside where you downloaded Tomcat.

...

• • Extract zip files in flat structure using unzip -j (works on Windows and UNIX)
    • cd <TOMCAT_HOME>/lib
    • unzip -j <path to temp folder>/adf-essentials.zip
    • unzip -j <path to temp folder>/adf-essentials-client-ear.zip
  • You should see a large number of jars now in the tomcatthe <TOMCAT_HOME>/lib folder.
  • ADF Essentials comes with the JDBC driver for Oracle 11g database (ojdbc6dms.jar).  If you are using Oracle 12c database, you can download the driver from the Oracle Technology Network site.

    • Oracle 12c drivers

      Note

      If adding another JDBC driver, be sure to remove the default one which comes with the ADF Essentials libraries (ojdbc6dms.jar).  If you leave multiple JDBC drivers in the lib folder, you could encounter the following exception on startup: java.lang.SecurityException: sealing violation: package oracle.jdbc is sealed                 at java.net.URLClassLoader.getAndVerifyPackage(Unknown Source)                 at java.net.URLClassLoader.definePackageInternal(Unknown Source)                 at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(Unknown Source)                 at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(Unknown Source)                 at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)

      
      

• Copy the jars with the following names from the following jar files from Tomcat_Complete.zip /apache-tomcat-flexdeploy/lib folder and place them in <TOMCAT_HOME>/lib as well.
  • jta-1.1.jar
  • jackson-core-lgpl-1.9.13.jar
  • jersey-bundle-1.18.jar
  • asm-3.3.1.jar
  • mail-1.4.7.jar
  • ant-salesforce.jar - If you will be using the Salesforce integration.

• If using IBM ClearCase, you will need to copy some jar files from your ClearCase server or ClearTeam Explorer installation to the FlexDeploy installation.
  • Copy all of the jar files found in the com.ibm.rational.teamapi_8.0.1.vxxx folder of your ClearCase server or ClearTeam Explorer to <TOMCAT_HOME>/lib. (commons-codec-1.3.jar, commons-lang-2.3.jar, icu4j-4_8.jar, remote_core.jar, stpclientws.jar, stpcq.jar, teamapiextensions.jar, unicodetypemgr.jar, commons-httpclient-3.0.jar, commons-logging-1.0.4.jar, icu4j-charset-4_8.jar, stpcc.jar, stpcmmn.jar, stpwvcm.jar, ucleardiffmerge.jar)

...

Open context.xml for editing. It is located in the the <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf folder where you extracted Tomcat.

Add the following text inside of the <Context> </Context> tags. change <password for fd_admin> to the actual password, and . Change url to your Database if necessary, changing your jdbc url as well.

<!-- Prevent unnecessary warnings in the log.                                   -->
<JarScanner scanManifest="false"/>


<!-- Database Connection for the FlexDeploy Application                                   -->
<Resource name="jdbc/flexdbDS" auth="Container" type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource" factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"              
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe" user="fd_admin" password="put password for fd_admin" maxActive="100" maxIdle="10" maxWait="60" validationQuery="select 1 from dual" testOnBorrow="true"/>
