h1. Deployment runthrough on Windows
This is an example deployment on a 32-bit Windows 7 host.
See [[Deployment runthrough]] for a typical Linux deployment.
See [[Deployment troubleshooting]] for notes about Java and Tomcat versions and on things that might go wrong.
h2. 1. Obtain the current code from Mercurial repository
I use "EasyMercurial":http://easyhg.org/ as my Windows Mercurial client. Use "Open" -> "Remote repository" and provide @https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/hg/human-echolocation-java-webapp@ as the remote repository URL, cloning to a folder called @human-echolocation-java-webapp@ in my Documents folder. (See "screenshot":/attachments/download/1182/Screenshot%20-%20300914%20-%2008_51_01.png.)
h2. 2. Install the MATLAB Compiler Runtime
Navigate to http://www.mathworks.co.uk/products/compiler/mcr/ and find the download URL. (I am using release R2013b here.) Download and run the installer, accepting its default installation path of @C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime@.
h2. 3. Install Java and Tomcat
Navigate to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html to download (in our case) Java 7 JDK. (Tomcat only requires the JRE, the runtime, but if we're going to do any development we'll want a JDK later.) Run the installer and install to the default path.
Navigate to http://tomcat.apache.org/ and download the "32-bit/64-bit Windows Service installer" for (in our case) Tomcat 7. Again we accept the default path (@C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.0@). Note that the installer asks you to set a username and password for the Tomcat administrator login -- this is optional, but it will save some configuration later if you set a password now. (See "screenshot":/attachments/download/1183/Screenshot%20-%20300914%20-%2010_05_03.png)
When installation is complete, you will be given the option to start Tomcat -- accept it. You should then be able to open the URL @http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/html@ in a browser to see the Tomcat manager page. You will be asked for a username and password to access it -- these should be the same ones you provided during installation.
