This article is for client's with virtual and dedicated servers. Apache Tomcat is not supported on our shared servers. You would need to upgrade to a virtual or dedicated server in order to install/use Apache Tomcat.

Apache Tomcat's installation will require an Apache/PHP recompile on your server. Acenet strongly suggests processing an Apache/PHP recompile during your server's non peak hours. The reason being because an Apache/PHP recompile may cause sporadic performance issues on your server while it's processing and it takes about an hour for the recompile to complete.

[1] Log into your server via SSH as root. Before proceeding with the rest of the install instructions, you may want to consider using screen to recompile Apache/PHP just in case you lose SSH connectivity during the recompile. You can view more details on how to install and use screen here:

How to Install/Use screen

[2] Run the following command

/scripts/easyapache

If you have a virtual server with Acenet, you may need to run this command instead:

/scripts/easyapache --skip-xen-broken-xm-check

[3] Ensure 'Previously Saved Config (** DEFAULT **)' is selected.

[4] Hit the Tab key until '[Start customizing based on profile]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[5] Hit the Tab key until '[Next Step]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[6] Hit the Tab key until '[Next Step]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[7] Hit the down arrow key until 'Tomcat' is highlighted and then hit the space bar to select it.

[8] Ensure '[Ok]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[9] Hit the Tab key until '[Save and Build]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[10] Ensure '[Yes]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[11] Ensure '[I Understand]' is highlighted and then hit Enter.

[12] Wait for the recompile to complete (usually takes about an hour).
