1- Upload the iObeya installation directory

  1. Connect to the application server with the user account used to run Tomcat.

  2. Upload the <install_folder> to the server.

2- Deploy the iObeya webapp

Tomcat directory

  1. Copy the ROOT.xml context file into the path_to_tomcat_directory/conf/Catalina/localhost directory of Tomcat. If these directories do not exist, they should be created manually.

  2. Copy the new JDBC drivers into the path_to_tomcat_directory/lib/ directory of Tomcat.

    1. For MySQL: MySQL: Download Connector/J

    2. For MariaDB: MariaDB: Download Connector/J

    3. For Oracle: Oracle: Download JDBC drivers

      Check the iObeya technical requirements to identify which version of the JDBC drivers you should use according to your database server.

      From our experience, we get better performance with the MariaDB JDBC connector compared to the MySQL JDBC connector.

iObeya webapp directory

  1. Copy the content of <install_folder>/iobeya/ into the docBase folder.

  2. Copy the log4j2.xml file into the log4j2FilePath folder.
