[dspace]
). There are a few common ways this may be achieved:One option is to specifically give the Tomcat user (often named "tomcat") ownership of the [dspace] directories, for example:
Code Block |
---|
# Change [dspace] and all subfolders to be owned by "tomcat" chown -R tomcat:tomcat [dspace] |
Modifications in [tomcat]/conf/server.xml : You also need to alter Tomcat's default configuration to support searching and browsing of multi-byte UTF-8 correctly. You need to add a configuration option to the <Connector> element in [tomcat]/config/server.xml: URIEncoding="UTF-8" e.g. if you're using the default Tomcat config, it should read:
Code Block | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
<!-- Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 --> <Connector port="8080" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100" connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8"/> |
You may change the port from 8080 by editing it in the file above, and by setting the variable CONNECTOR_PORT in server.xml. You should set the URIEncoding even if you are running Tomcat behind a proxy (Apache HTTPD, Nginx, etc.) via AJP.
Tomcat 8 and above is using at least Java 1.7 for JSP compilation. However, by default, Tomcat 7 uses Java 1.6 for JSP compilation. If you want to use Java 1.7 in your .jsp files, you have to change the configuration of Tomcat 7. Edit the file called web.xml in the configuration directory of your Tomcat instance (${CATALINA_HOME}/conf in Tomcat notation). Look for a servlet definition using the org.apache.jasper.servlet.JSPServlet servlet-class and add two init parameters compilerSourceVM
and compilerTargetVM
as you see it in the example below. Then restart Tomcat.

---|---|---|---|---|
