kie workbench deploy war not working (tomcat)

Question

I have downloaded the kie workbench and extracted kie-drools-wb-distribution-wars-6.2.0.Final-tomcat7.war. I\'ve never used tomcat before, but I wanted to use t

Answer 1

After your .war file gets exploded by tomcat you wil need to cd into /kie-drools-wb-distribution-wars-6.2.0.Final-tomcat7 directory. There is a README.txt file in there which provides further installation notes:

1. Install bitronix transaction manager into your tomcat

2. Create configuration files inside TOMCAT_HOME/conf

   • btm-config.properties

3. Define system properties for btm.root, bitronix config file, JBoss logging provider and others.

4. Configure JEE security for kie-wb on tomcat (with default realm backed by tomcat-users.xml)

(list elements were copy pasted from README.txt) Follow the instructions in there and it should work. I think the error you are getting is related with step 1 and bitronix transaction manager.

hope that helps
