Geronimo Initial Install Topic:Web   Date: 2005-10-10 Printer Friendly:

Geronimo is an open-source, certified J2EE server. The installation is really quite simple. The first thing we did was to make sure we had the latest Sun JDK from here and got rid of our included GCC Java:

# rpm -e java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-27jpp # rpm -e gcc-java-3.4.3-22.1 [root@srv-1 java]# ls jdk-1_5_0_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin jre-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.rpm jre-1_5_0_04-linux-i586-rpm.bin [root@srv-1 java]# chmod 700 jdk-1_5_0_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin [root@srv-1 java]# ./jdk-1_5_0_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin Sun Microsystems, Inc.

[root@srv-1 java]#

The next step is to grab the Geronimo package and extract it:

[root@srv-1 bin]# [root@srv-1 ger]# tar -xzf geronimo-1.0-M5.tar.gz [root@srv-1 ger]# ls geronimo-1.0-M4 geronimo-1.0-M5 geronimo-1.0-M4.tar.gz geronimo-1.0-M5.tar.gz [root@srv-1 ger]# cd geronimo-1.0-M5 [root@srv-1 geronimo-1.0-M5]#

Let's start up the server:

[root@srv-1 geronimo-1.0-M5]# java -jar bin/server.jar Booting Geronimo Kernel (in Java 1.5.0_05)...

Version M5 has a nice administration console here:

The default is Username=system, Password=manager.

Here is what the console looks like when logged on:
