Question : How do I deploy war file in unix server?

Hi experts.

I have a WAR file which i need to deploy in a unix server. Currently, I am using a windows OS and know how to deploy the file locally. I am using tomcat and mysql on the windows OS.

I have been given the task of deploying the WAR file on the unix server. I have been given its address, admin username, admin pw (it is on the local network). I have also been told that the server has both tomcat and mysql on it. Now, I need to deploy it but have no clue how to do so. I have 0 experience in unix.

Btw...I also have a backend database which is needed to run the application. I will have to copy it onto linux as well. Maybe a dump of its content or something.

Could anyone please help me. I will actively be waiting to assist if more details are needed.

Answer : How do I deploy war file in unix server?

The universal way to deploy .war file is from Tomcat Admin.
http://your_tomcat_ip:port/manager/html
E.g. : http://192.168.0.2:8080/manager/html (user/pass required)

Look for "WAR file to deploy" at bottom, browse your .war file and click Deploy button (see attachment)


Hope help
