First start error on Tomcat7: FAIL - Application at context path /entando-demo could not be started

[Tony Fanelli]

Hi, I'm trying to install "Entando_entando-demo-standalone_3.2.0" on servlet Tomcat 7.0.
After extracting the file and copy them into Tomcat7 dir, in "Tomcat Web Application Manager" I try to start the application, but I retrive error FAIL - Application at context path /entando-demo could not be started
What am I doing wrong?

Regards

Hello Tony,

Entando Demo Standalone is a ... standalone.

Thus, it is not suitable for being deployed in a Tomcat: it comes with its own Tomcat.

From the README file you should have read:

This version of Entando standalone portal is tested under Ubuntu Linux, Mac and Windows.

To run the standalone version of this portal you have to launch 


startStandalone.sh		(Unix and Mac)
startStandalone.bat		(Windows)


Then open your browser and go to:
http://localhost:8080/${profile.application.name}/

Hope this helps...
