This guide assumes that you have Tomcat installed and working.

All paths used assume that Tomcat is installed with the paths set in the installation guide, so you might need to change the examples to match your system.

Pure Distribution File

The Pure distribution file is a tar.gz file containing on folder with the distribution name and version, something like cust-dk-abc-5.2.0.

Inside this folder you will find a folder for each webapp that is a part of Pure. Each folder is and unpacked war file, so the folder can be deployed directly into the Tomcat webapps folder.

A standard Pure distribution will have 3 war folders: admin, portal, and ws, but it can have more than that.
 

Deploying Pure to Tomcat

First stop Tomcat if it is running.

Now unpack the Pure distribution file on the server

tar zxf cust-dk-abc-5.2.0-distribution.tar.gz

Remove the any old version of Pure from the Tomcat. If you have other things running in this Tomcat, you might want to only delete the Pure folders instead of everything in the webapps folder as this example does!

sudo rm -rf /data/tomcat_base/webapps/*

Copy the Pure war folders from the unpacked distribution folder to the Tomcat webapps folder

cd cust-dk-abc-5.2.0
cp -r admin portal ws /data/tomcat_base/webapps/.

If the deployed folders are not owner by the Tomcat user or a group that the Tomcat user is a member of, change the owner

sudo chown -R tomcat:tomcat /data/tomcat_base/webapps/*

Change the rights of the deployed folders to make sure the Tomcat user and groups have full access to the files

sudo chmod -R ug+rw /data/tomcat_base/webapps/*

Set the execute bit on all folders

find /data/tomcat_base/webapps/ -type d -exec chmod ug+x {} \;

Start Pure and follow the "maintenance mode" guide
