ARIS via Web browser using tomcat web server

Hi Anupama, 

you can use the Tomcat which is installed with ARIS Business Publisher to handle ARIS web client access.

You have to configure the Tomcat that the default home page of Tomcat is linked to the web client "index_apps.html":

Hi,

an example:

Apache Tomcat ARIS Business Publisher

arisclient.xml:

%ARISHOME71%\BPServer\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\arisclient.xml

<Context path="/arisclient" docBase="D:\ARIS7.2\server\html" debug="0" reloadable="false" crossContxt="true"></Context>

web.xml:

ARISHOME\server\html\WEB-INF\web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"

    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"

    version="2.4">

    <welcome-file-list>

        <welcome-file>index_app.html</welcome-file>

    </welcome-file-list>

</web-app>

Hi Jens,

Thanks a billion for your help!!!.

I really appreciate your support. I am now able to access ARIS via webclient using tomcat

The web link after configuring  tomcat, I got is

http://localhost:9090/arisclient/

where 9090 is the port we are using for  business publisher and now for ARIS web client via tomcat.

 However Just wanted to know if there is a way to customise this URL, I mean without the port number being displayed. eg : http://localhost/arisclient   (without 9090 as above)

If yes then I would like to customise this before I pass on the link to the users.

Once again I thank you for all the support.

Thanks & Regards,

Anupama
