Jagger WebUI installation

Web client is a java web application, which works with a lot of java web containers.
I will show you how to launch jagger web client with Apache Tomcat

• Download jagger war file from the next link -
  https://nexus.griddynamics.net/nexus/content/repositories/public/com/griddynamics/jagger/webclient/1.2.5/webclient-1.2.5.war
  Note: Latest version number you can find in Release notes
  
  
• Rename webclient-X.X.X.war file to ROOT.war
  
  

  Rename file to ROOT.war
  
  
• Open {Apache Tomcat root folder}/bin/webapps and remove all files, which have names equal ROOT
  
  

  Remove Root folder and Root.war(if such exist)
  
  
• Copy your Root.war to the current folder.
  
  
  

  Paste Root.war
  
  
• If your Tomcat is not running, execute next command :
  for Windows

  {Apache Tomcat root folder}/bin/startup.bat

  for Linux

  {Apache Tomcat root folder}/bin/startup.sh

  
  
• Tomcat will create folder ROOT
  Open next file : /ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/webclient.properties and set database properties
  More about client properties you can read here WebUi properties
  
  
• Shutdown Apache Tomcat - for Windows

  {Apache Tomcat root folder}/bin/shutdown.bat

  for Linux

  {Apache Tomcat root folder}/bin/shutdown.sh

  
  
• And launch again
  
  
• Now open link localhost:8080 in your favorite browser. Web client is ready for use!
  

  Compare sessions
  
  
• Note: Web client will write logs to path defined in log properties /ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties
  By default logs will be stored in the same directory where Web client is installed. If you don't have permissions
  to write there - redefine path
  
  
  It is possible to store Web client properties file in separate file to simplify updating of Web Client. [More ...]
