    Tomcat is a free and relatively stable web application server. It is popular among many small and medium-sized enterprises. This article will introduce how to deploy FineBI project in the Tomcat server. There are two deployment methods:

    Server deployment package: No need to prepare Tomcat or JDK separately. You can directly deploy a Web container that includes FineBI project and environment configuration by one-click.

    Standalone deployment: You should prepare Tomcat and JDK and deploy them in FineBI respectively.

    Server Deployment Package

    To deploy FineBI project to Tomcat, it is necessary to first install Tomcat server and JDK package, which may be troublesome you 

    FanRuan has integrated a web container that includes the project and environment configuration. This web container supports direct deployment and startup in the corresponding system without environment configuration.

    Environment Preparation

    The supported versions of Tomcat server and JDK are as follows. Inappropraite versions may result in server deployment failure.

    Notes:

    1. If you install multiple Tomcat servers in the environment, it is not recommended to configure the CATALINA_HOME or TOMCAT_HOME environment variables. Otherwise, no matter which Tomcat you start, it will always be the one specified by CATALINA_HOME.

    2. Multiple FineBI projects cannot be deployed in the same Tomcat server.

    3. The log management provided by the platform cannot clean up the log files in the %TOMCAT_HOME%/logs folder. The catalina.out file will occupy a large amount of disk space if it runs for a long time. It is recommended to clean up the catalina.out file regularly.
