Installing Thingworx 7.1 on Linux Ubuntu
July 15, 2016
Dear Sirs
I installed Thingworx platform 7.1 on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, following your document “Installing ThingWorx 7.1 Version 1.3”.
I would like to submit you the minor changes I made to some instructions. Without these changes I could not set up Tomcat application server. I used Tomcat 8.5.3.
• Page 20; step 19
Instead of instruction
sudo chmod 640 conf/ *,
I used
sudo chmod -R 770 conf/ .
The instruction conf/ * changes the folders at the same level of conf;
the chmod value 640 blocks Tomcat process.
• Page 21, step 25
About keystore file,
instead of value "{$user.home}/8.5.3/.keystore"
I used "conf/.keystore",
because with original instruction resulting path is /usr/share/tomcat/8.5.3/tomcat/8.5.3
instead of
/usr/share/tomcat/8.5.3
I added also field keyAlias,
with value "tomcat8”,
because in step 23 of page 21 alias parameter was tomcat8,
but default alias of tomcat process was tomcat , instead of tomcat8 .
Thank you for your attention and your suggestions.
Best regards,
