Installing MapStore on Linux VPS

[ankit...@gmail.com]

Hi There,

I’m trying to install MapStore and other GeoSolutions services on a Linux VPS.

• After deploying GeoServer.war on Tomcat7, I've installed war files of GeoStore, http_proxy, MapStore, Opensdi2manager, and servicebox (as part of Mapstore binary package).

• I have unzipped the geostore_cfg.zip (provided by GeoSolutions) into folder: <Tomcat>/webapps/geostore/WEB-INF/classes

• To configure the opensdi service, configuration file (provided by GeoSolutions) was copied into the following folder: <Tomcat>/webapps/opensdi2-manager/WEB-INF/classes. The file needs edit to change the baseConfig.baseFolder to point to an existing folder where file will be uploaded by the template plugin. Can someone please let me know, how can I change the path ‘ J:\\Develop\\apache-tomcat-6.0.41\\uploads’ for Linux?? I tried various combinations, but didn’t work!

• I also can’t Start both Servicebox and GeoStore.

Thanks in advance.
Ankit

Since you are on linux, you will probably need to assign permissions to the unzipped files, so that the tomcat user can access them. You will probably also have a permission problem when GeoStore tries to create its H2 database. Do you have any error in the tomcat logs?

 

• To configure the opensdi service, configuration file (provided by GeoSolutions) was copied into the following folder: <Tomcat>/webapps/opensdi2-manager/WEB-INF/classes. The file needs edit to change the baseConfig.baseFolder to point to an existing folder where file will be uploaded by the template plugin.

You should create an uploads folder in a location that is writable by tomcat. Something in /var should be good (for example /var/opensdi/uploads). Be sure to create the folder and give it write permissions for the tomcat user.

 

• I also can’t Start both Servicebox and GeoStore.

Do you have any specific error in the logs?

Regards,

Mauro

Thanks Mauro for a quick reply.

• You are right, there were user, group permission issues. I've assigned tomcat7 as user, group ownership within all webapps folders and files.
• However, I'm still unable to Start GeoStore and Servicebox within Tomcat.
• Also, first login username and password both as 'admin' for mapstore/manager give me invalid.
• Below is my catalina.out log:
