Deployment of RMsis Application

Application Deployment

For Windows

  1. Unzip rmsis.zip file in any folder using winzip/winrar.
  2. Create RMsis configuration directory at any location (to keep RMsis configuration files)
  3. Run setup.bat file.
    c:\> .\setup.bat
  4. System will ask to enter RMsis configuration directory. Please enter the full absolute path of configuration directory (created in step 2).
    c:\> Enter the RMsis configuration directory path: Path/to/rmsis/configuration
  5. Go to RMsis configuration directory and open jdbc.properties file. Enter your database configuration.
  6. Go to RMsis configuration directory and open mail.properties file. Enter your mail configuration.
  7. Deploy rm.war to your application server (Tomcat). This can be done by copying rm.war to your <CATALINA_HOME>\webapps\ folder.
    c:\> copy rm.war <CATALINA_HOME>\webapps

Note:

  • <CATALINA_HOME> is path to Tomcat installation.
  • rm.war can be deployed on any instance of tomcat server, not necessarily the one where JIRA is running.
  • Example: Suppose domain is http://example.com/ and tomcat server is running on port 8080 of this domain, then RMsis base url will be http://example.com:8080/rm/ remember this base url, the system will ask for it while launching RMsis application for the first time.

For Linux

  1. Unzip rmsis.zip file in any folder using gunzip.
  2. Create RMsis configuration directory at any location (to keep RMsis configuration files)
  3. Run setup.sh file.
    $ chmod +x setup.sh
    $ ./setup.sh
    
  4. System will ask to enter RMsis configuration directory. Please enter the name of configuration directory (created in step 2).
    $ Enter the RMsis configuration directory path: Path/to/rmsis/configuration/
  5. Go to RMsis configuration directory and open jdbc.properties file. Enter your database configuration.
  6. Go to RMsis configuration directory and open mail.properties file. Enter your mail configuration.
  7. Deploy rm.war to your application server (Tomcat). This can be done by copying rm.war to your <CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/ folder.

$ cp rm.war <CATALINA_HOME >/webapps/
Note:

  • <CATALINA_HOME> is path to tomcat installation.
  • rm.war can be deployed on any instance of tomcat server, not necessarily the one where jira is running.
  • Example: Suppose domain is http://example.com/ and tomcat server running on port 8080 of this domain, then RMsis baseUrl will be http://example.com:8080/rm/ remember this baseUrl, the system will ask for it while launching RMsis application for the first time.

Installation of JIRA plugin for RMsis

For Windows

  1. Move jira-rmsis-x.x.jar plugin file to JIRA home's /plugins/installed-plugins/ directory.
