Installing and configuring Jetty

Important

Complete the steps on this page if you're installing Web Services and Applications version 8.5.201.09 or earlier; Jetty is embedded in newer versions of Web Services and Applications.

Jetty version 9 is a mandatory component that must be installed and configured on each Web Services node prior to starting the installation and configuration of Web Services and Applications.

Important

Jetty version 8 is no longer supported by Web Services. For more information about Jetty, refer to the Jetty documentation.

Install Jetty

Prerequisites

• You have installed the latest Java 1.7 JDK 64bit for Linux. For more information, refer to the Java documentation.

Start

1. Download the latest Jetty version available in stable-9 from Eclipse.
2. Copy the Jetty archive to the installation directory. For example: /opt/jetty
   
3. Use a tar utility to extract the files. For example: tar -zxvf jetty-distribution-9.2.1.v20140609.tar.gz
   
4. Start Jetty to confirm it has been installed correctly:

[java_path]/java -jar [jetty_path]/start.jar 

• [java_path] — The path to your Java installation. For example, /usr/bin.
• [jetty_path] — The path to your Jetty installation. For example, /opt/jetty.

Test Jetty by entering the following URL in a web browser: http://[host]:8080

• [host] — The host name (fully qualified domain name) or IP address where you installed Jetty.

You should see a Jetty Test application page.

Stop Jetty by pressing Ctrl+c.

Important

If you plan to use the Gplus Adapter for Salesforce or WebRTC for Workspace Web Edition, you should also configure Jetty for SSL.
