Run Ws-messenger
-----------------
1. User has the option to run broker in several modes. Steps for each mode is given below.

Run standalone version supplied with binary distribution
---------------------------------------------------------

1. Unzip binary distribution.

2. Change default configurations if needed.

- configuration files is located at:
 <extracted location>/standalone-server/conf/airavata-server.properties

        Run axis2 server by running the command:
            Linux -
                <extracted location>/standalone-server/bin/axis2server.sh
            Windows -
                <extracted location>/standalone-server/bin/axis2server.bat

Run Ws-messenger using axis2 servlet
-------------------------------------
(Tested on tomcat v 6.0.20 & axis2 v1.5.1)
1. Copy broker aar file to axis2 distribution accordingly.
2. Create database tables (Scripts can be found <extracted location>/bin/database_scripts)
3. Set configurations appropriately and copy configuration file ( named airavata-server.properties) to

    <Axis-servlet>/webapps/axis2/WEB-INF/classes

Note: a sample configuration file is located at:

<extracted location>/standalone-server/conf/airavata-server.properties

4. Start tomcat server.

5. For more information follow how to deploy Apache Axis2 as a Web Application.


Run Ws-messenger using a external axis2 distribution
----------------------------------------------------

1. Copy broker aar file to following location:
      <AXIS2_DIST_HOME>/repository/services

2. Copy airavata-server.properties file to <AXIS2_DIST_HOME>/conf

    Configure the properties file with broker.start.delivery=false

3. Start axis2 server.

4. Run message delivery component separately.

5. Deploy messenger servlet on tomcat.

Note: messenger servlet can be found at <extracted_location>/messenger directory.

6. Set configurations appropriately.

             <TOMECAT_HOME>/webapps/messenger/WEB-INF/classes/airavata-server.properties

Note: Point to the correct database you want to pick the messages and do the message delivery, and check the
property axis2.repository to the correct location.
