CloudSync 1.0.x
Fedora CloudSync is distributed as a WAR file that you can drop into any Java servlet container. This guide will walk you through the installation process.

See Downloads for the latest WAR file.
This is the directory where CloudSync will keep all data files and logs. You have four options for defining it:
It is recommended that you allocate at least 128 MB of heap and 128 MB of PermGen memory for use by CloudSync when running in a dedicated servlet container. In a shared container, you should find out what these values are set to currently, and increase them by at least 128 MB each.
This can be done in a variety of ways, depending on the servlet container. In Tomcat, one way to control it is to set the CATALINA_OPTS
environment variable before starting up the container.
For example, in Unix:
No Format |
---|
export CATALINA_OPTS="-Xms128m -Xmx128m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m" |
In Windows:
No Format |
---|
set CATALINA_OPTS=-Xms128m -Xmx128m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m |
CloudSync is designed to be installed in the servlet container of your choice. It has been tested with Tomcat 6.
Refer to your servlet container documentation for instructions on deploying war files. This is usually just a matter of copying the WAR file into a certain directory. NOTE: You may wish to rename the WAR file (e.g. cloudsync.war) before deploying it so the application becomes available at a shorter URL than it would be otherwise.
CloudSync's main logfile can be found in $CLOUDSYNC_HOME/systemlogs/cloudsync.log. If you're having trouble starting or using the service, this file often contains details that will help you resolve the problem.
Upgrading from one of the beta releases will require a re-installation due to significant database changes.
