      Code Block
      <server> <id>tomcat-server</id> <username>tomcat</username> <password>password</password> </server>

   2. Set up environment with the following settings:

      1. duracloud.bridge.root.username - the username used for initializing the instance (default root).

      2. duracloud.bridge.root.password - the password used for initializing the instance (default rpw).

      3. duracloud.bridge.root.email  - an email associated with the root account that will send email regarding bridge server events.

      4. duracloud.bridge.root.dir - a directory that will receive data as well as store non-database application state and settings.

      5. in the /etc/default/tomcat7 file add the following parameters to your JAVA_OPTS environmental variable

         Code Block
         JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dduracloud.bridge.root.password=<your password> -Dduracloud.bridge.root.email=<your email> -Dduracloud.bridge.root.dir=<your root dir>"

Download and build the source code
