Constellation Installation

[jschaeff]

Hi,

I would like to give constellation a try. But I could not compete the mvn install. I also tried to put the .war in a tomcat7 engine but it seems that it's not dedigned to run inside tomcat. I was unable to find any documentation anywhere. Could you help me deploy it ?

My environment is Debian Stable, Oracke Java7. I cloned the repository and ran :

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle mvn install

There is an error in the tests :

testSOSGetCapabilities(org.constellation.ws.embedded.SOSSoapRequestTest) Time elapsed: 10311 sec <<< FAILURE! java.lang.AssertionError: Expected textContent "gml:Envelope" but got "ns16:Envelope" for nodes: Expected node: #text="gml:Envelope" Actual node: #text="ns16:Envelope"

Thank you for your help !

Hi @jschaeff , we are aware that some tests in embedded module fail and we are currently working to fix them. As @glegal suggest, you can build Constellation with -DskipTests option for now. When Constellation is fully built, you may deploy the constellation.war located in constellation/modules/cstl-sdi/target folder in your tomcat7.

Or you can download the latest Constellation builded war in our CI on http://constellation-sdi.org/en/index.html

Thanks for your help. I tried the nightly war file in tomcat7 with oracle java7. There is an error at deployment, here it says :

I guess, derby.log should get in some path and tha tomcat7 is not able to create it. But I don't know where that would be.

The derby.log file is created by Derby on the directory from where tomcat is started. For example if tomcat is located on /opt/apache-tomcat/ and runned like this : cd /opt/apache-tomcat/bin && ./catalina.sh start In that case derby.log file should be created on /opt/apache-tomcat/bin/ folder.

I think that running Tomcat from a directory owned by the user that start Tomcat should resolve your problem. Otherwise, could you attach the full Tomcat catalina.log and localhost.log log files ?
