Installing Tomcat in Angstrom Linux

Hello,

   I am working on a project in which I need to install Apache Tomcat
webserver on Beagleboard running Angstrom Linux. I went to the package
browser on Angstrom distribution's website, but there I could not find
any package related to Tomcat.

Can anyone tell how to install Tomcat in Angstrom distribution?

Thanks in advance.

if tomcat is not in the angstrom packages then you will need to add that
yourself. I am not sure an arm port of Tomcat exists, but google will
tell you that.

Install opkg-6-java from Angstrom repository, then download tomcat
from tomcat.apache.org. You need to download only the core package,
other packages can be installed when needed.
Untar the downloaded archive, change to tomcat's directory and start
the server with "PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/
bin/startup.sh"
Now you can access the server from a web browser at
http://your.beagleboard.address:8080

Good luck!
