I have been folowing steps for implementing XWIKI .war file to Tomcat8 with MySQL on Ubuntu 16.04.
According to THIS source:
Was already done on server:
- Tomcat 8 installed
- mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.7.29
- Ubuntu 16.04
*Actual Tomcat8 settings:
*headless=TRUE
*max size is 2048
*security manager is off
*UTF8 encoding set
*port 8080 set
What have I actually done according to the install. steps
Tomcat:
checked all the settings and started it in tomcat manager
source
Permanent directory:
*Set the environment.permanentDirectory property in your xwiki.properties file
source
MySQL:
named mysql-connector-java.jar - downloaded and copied this particular file to WEB-INF/lib
*created xwiki DB with character set utf8mb4 collate utf8mb4_bin AND user xwiki with * privileges
*edited WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.xml by source above
