Thanks: Giancarlo Luxardo for helping us writing this tutorial and for testing TXM portal
The minimum requirements for installing and running the TXM portal version 0.6.1 are as follows:
You need to have root access on this machine.
The Java architecture may be checked by one of the following commands:
java -version update-java-alternatives -l
There are at least two methods to download and install Tomcat:
In the following, it is assumed that a repository package has been used.
In this case, the following directories are created for Tomcat 6:
The owner of these directories is the tomcat6 user.
You should not need to configure the CATALINA_HOME variable.
Add the folowing lines between the '<tomcat-users>' and '</tomcat-users>' lines in the '/etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml' file:
<role rolename="manager-gui"/> <role rolename="manager-status"/> <user username="admin" password="password" roles="manager-gui,manager-status"/>
The Tomcat password is initially in plain text. It will be encrypted in a next step.
If you are using Tomcat 7, edit the '$TOMCAT7/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/web.xml' file as follows:
<multipart-config> <max-request-size>524288000</max-request-size> <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold> </multipart-config>
Throughout the rest of the document it is assumed that Tomcat 6 is used.
Tomcat is normally configured to start automatically at boot time.
Tomcat 6 may be started and stopped using the tomcat service:
service tomcat6 start service tomcat6 stop service tomcat6 restart
Tomcat is by default configured to run on the 8080 port.
According to your host name (possibly 'localhost'), open the following URL in a web browser: http://localhost:8080
You should see the following message:
It works ! If you're seeing this page via a web browser, it means you've setup Tomcat successfully. Congratulations!
If you have installed the Tomcat admin package, you should also see the Tomcat manager: http://localhost:8080/manager/html
unzip -l TXM_Portal_x.x.zip
cp -r TXM_Portal_x.x/.TXMWEB/ /usr/share/tomcat6
total 4 drwxr-xr-x 5 tomcat6 tomcat6 4096 Jul 9 11:12 txm
dpkg -i TXM_x.x.x_Linux64.deb
TXM should be installed under:
/usr/lib/TXM
Run the TXM desktop to complete the installation process, the TXM local directories should be created under:
/home/<user>/TXM
If your Linux system does not include a desktop environment, you need to enable X11 forwarding (-X option with ssh) to an X11 server on a client machine (e.g.: XQuartz on the Mac OS X, Cygwin/X on Microsoft Windows).
Make sure that the subdirectories are accessible for read & write rights to the tomcat6 group:
The TXM configuration is done with parameters files. They are stored in the '/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/' directory. Configure TXM Toolbox parameters in the 'textometrie.properties' file[modifier]
Make sure that the following parameters are valid:
cqi_server_path_to_cqplib=/usr/lib/TXM/cwb/bin/ cqi_server_path_to_executable=/usr/lib/TXM/cwb/bin/cqpserver cqi_server_path_to_init_file=/usr/lib/TXM/cwb/cqpserver.init cqi_server_path_to_registry=/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/registry/ r_path_to_executable=/usr/bin/R workspace_location=/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/workspaces/default.xml user_txm_home=/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/ log_directory=/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/logs/
Then, replace the <user> with your login:
install_dir=/home/<user>/TXM
Configure TXM portal parameters in the 'txmweb.conf' file:
txm.properties=/usr/share/tomcat6/.TXMWEB/txm/textometrie.properties default_admin_pass=<encrypted-password> portal_address=http://<host>:8080/txm/ mail.protocol=smtp mail.host=<my.smtp.server> mail.user=<my.user> mail.default.from=<my.user.from@mail> mail.default.reply=<my.user.reply@mail> mail.contact=<my.user@mail>
You need to define the TXM administrator password. It must be encrypted with the MD5 algorithm.
You can use the 'makePassword.jar' file, found in the TXM portal archive, to generate the password, e.g.:
java -jar makePassword.jar <mypassword>
Note: for other configuration parameters, please refer to the TXM portal admin manual.
It is recommended to encrypt the password previously written in the '/etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml' file.
Run once again the 'makePassword.jar' file:
java -jar makePassword.jar <tomcat-password>
Replace the previous password with the result.
Edit the '/etc/tomcat6/server.xml' file, look for the <Realm> element and add the following attribute:
digest="md5"
Restart the Tomcat service.
If you cannot use a Web browser, you can deploy the 'txm.war' on the server with the following procedure:
$MANAGERURL = <host>:8080/manager/html $APPNAME = txm $WARPATH = <path-to-the war-file> wget "$MANAGERURL/undeploy?path=/$APPNAME" -O – -q wget "$MANAGERURL/deploy?deployPath=/$APPNAME&deployConfig=&deployWar=file:$WARPATH" -O – -q
In a Web browser, go to: http://host:8080/txm
You can now see and use the sample corpora (DISCOURS, GRAAL). You have all the rights to analyze/access them but not the 'subcorpus' and 'partition' building rights.
The sample 'demo' account will give you full rights on them.
The 'admin' account (with the configured password) gives access to the admin interface : add corpus, create profiles, create account, associate profile to account, etc…
See the TXM portal admin manual : https://txm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/txm/trunk/doc
If an error message such as “TBX: not initialized” or “Could not initialize Toolbox” appears, check the Tomcat logs for further diagnostic information.
