Rough notes for documenting my progress getting GeoServer mapping framework setup and running within Amahi. My hope is to create an easy-install Amahi package at some point. Feel free to help :)
- main project site: http://geoserver.org
- Download page: here
- Download link of current (24Feb2011) stable: here - v2.0.2 - bin package (51MB download!)
Contents
Dependencies
- Java. Fedora 14 seems to have come with a runtime version installed using OpenJava.
- GeoServer docs say you need a JDK but elsewhere they've announced you no longer need to! yipee!
- JAI add on.
- yum install jai-imageio-core did the trick (so far anyway) <1MB download
- Tomcat server is NOT required - they include a Jetty-based server instead, so should keep things simpler
Install
For now, create your "geoserver" alias first through the amahi. oh man - I have no "new app" option anymore in F14
wget http://cdnetworks-us-2.dl.sourceforge.net/project/geoserver/GeoServer/2.0.2/geoserver-2.0.2-bin.zip unzip geoserver-2.0.2-bin.zip mv geoserver-2.0.2 /var/hda/webapps/geoserver/html export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0/jre/ export GEOSERVER_HOME=/var/hda/webapps/geoserver/html cd /var/hda/webapps/geoserver/html/geoserver-2.0.2/bin sh startup.sh
Test
- http://hda:8080/geoserver/web/ - is the main UI.
- Default login: admin/geoserver
Packaging
This is where I'm just saving my notes while learning to package this app.
