Lewis John McGibbney commented on TIKA-894: ------------------------------------------- Can someone assign this to me and I will taker it on when I get a free cycle. This will be really helpful for TIKA-1301 I'll get round to it this weekend hopefully, > Add webapp mode for Tika Server, simplifies deployment > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TIKA-894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-894 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: packaging > Affects Versions: 1.1, 1.2 > Reporter: Chris Wilson > Labels: maven, newbie, patch > Attachments: tika-server-webapp.patch > > > For use in production services, Tika Server should really be deployed as a > WAR file, under a reliable servlet container that knows how to run as a > system service, for example Tomcat or JBoss. > This is especially important on Windows, where I wasted an entire day trying > to make TikaServerCli run as some kind of a service. > Maven makes building a webapp pretty trivial. With the attached patch > applied, "mvn war:war" should work. It seems to run fine in Tomcat, which > makes Windows deployment much simpler. Just install Tomcat and drop the WAR > file into tomcat's webapps directory and you're away. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
