Running Railo under JRun4

The following instructions describe one way to run Railo under JRun4:

  1. Download the war File version (Under “Railo Custom”) version of Railo http://www.railo-technologies.com/en/index.cfm?treeID=224.
  2. Unzip the file into any temporary directory.
  3. In the JRun4 administrator (http://localhost:8000/) create a new server called Railo. (I use port 8200).
  4. Browse to the new server folder location (../JRun4/servers/railo) and delete the default.ear folder.
  5. Create a …./JRun4/servers/railo/railo-war directory.
  6. Change to that directory (cd …/JRun4/servers/railo/railo-war)
  7. Now expand the war file (something like railo-2.0.1.000.war) to the …./JRun4/servers/railo/railo-war directory using this command: jar -xvf …./railo-2.0.1.000.war
  8. In the JRun4 administrator, start the Railo server and then view the Railo-war settings page.
  9. Edit the Context Path from “/railo-war” to “/“.

The Railo test page should now be available at http://localhost:8200/
