Installing Tomcat from the RPM repository (deprecated)

• Import the PGP key to validate the signature of the installation files. See Importing the PGP key (deprecated).
• Tomcat requires Java 11. You can use either Oracle Java or OpenJDK.
• Make sure that the JAVA_HOME variable is correctly set to the Java home directory. For example: /usr/java/jdk11.0.13-amd64.
  Information noteTip: You can set it in the /root/.bashrc file by adding the following line to it: export JAVA_HOME=$(dirname $(dirname $(readlink -e /usr/bin/java))).

The default installation also installs the following dependencies:

In case of custom installation, these dependencies must be installed beforehand.

1. Create a file called talend.repo in the /etc/yum.repos.d directory, containing the following configuration:

   [talend-8.0.1]
   name=Talend 8.0.1
   baseurl='https://<user>:<password>@www.opensourceetl.net/rpms/talend/8.0.1/base/x86_64/'
   enabled=1
   gpgcheck=1
   gpgkey=http://www.opensourceetl.net/rpms/GPG-KEY-talend

   Credentials (user and password) are provided in the license email sent by Talend.

   Your repository is now ready for use.
2. Install Tomcat with the following command:
   • To install the package with its default configuration, use the following command:

     sudo -E yum install talend-tomcat

     This command does not require any additional parameter. It installs the package and its dependencies with their default configuration in the default /opt/talend directory.

   • The talend-tomcat package is relocatable, meaning that you can install it in any other directory, as follows:

     sudo -E rpm -i --prefix=<InstallPath> https://<user>:<password>@www.opensourceetl.net/rpms/talend/8.0.1/base/x86_64/talend-tomcat-9.0.62-1.x86_64.rpm

     In this case, all other applications depending on Tomcat and installed with RPM must be installed in that same folder, or with correct Tomcat parameters set for the application.
