Hyrax - OLFS Installation
From OPeNDAP Documentation
The OLFS comes with a default configuration that is compatible with the default configuration of the BES. If you do a default install of each one you should get a running Hyrax server that will be pre-populated with test data suitable for running the integrity tests.

[edit] Install The BES
[edit] Download
If you haven't already got it, go get the latest OLFS distribution from here. You should get the binary jar file which will be named something like: olfs-x.x.x-webapp.jar
[edit] Unpack
Unpack the jar file with the command:
jar -xvf olfs-x.x.x-webapp.jar
which will unpack a directory called olfs-x.x.x-webapp
[edit] Install
Inside the that directory find the opendap.war file, and copy it into the Tomcat's webapps directory:
cp olfs-x.x.x-webapp/opendap.war /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.x.x/webapps/</code>
(Assuming the your Tomcat server is in /usr/logcal) If you're replacing an old copy, make sure that remove the 'opendap' directory that Tomcat will have created when it was started.)
[edit] Setup Tomcat
Configure the Tomcat environment by setting the environment variable CATALINA_HOME to the full path for the Tomcat distribution.
In bash:
export CATALINA_HOME = /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.x.x
[edit] Start Tomcat
In the top level tomcat directory (apache-tomcat-6.x.x on my machine) issue the command:
bin/startup.sh; tail -f logs/catalina.out
Wait a few seconds while it all starts up.
When Tomcat starts up it will unpack your 'OLFS and install the webapp.
Usage Note: If you use ctrl-c to stop watching the tail of the servers output, make sure to run the command:
bin/shutdown.sh
to shutdown Tomcat. If you don't, you may get errors when you next try to start the Tomcat server.
