Running the Installer

After running the create-installer target successfully, we can now install your custom portal. The installer will:

• deploys Jetspeed and the Tomcat application server. If you are following the training material, the Tomcat directory is located under /JetspeedTraining/tomcat-express/
• creates the Jetspeed core schema tables in the Derby database
• populates the database with a minimal set of portal information, including default roles, groups, profiles, and administrative users

To run the installer:

		
cd dist
java -jar jetexpress-installer.jar
   

Follow through the installation instructions. Feel free to use any database backend. However, if you are not using Derby, it is up to you to provide the latest database driver

Now that we've built and deployed the portal, lets start up the application server...
