For developing Wicket-webapplications a runtime server is necessary. The easiest setup uses the embedded (in an extra JAR-file) Jetty server. But you also can use Apache Tomcat, which may be more familiar for some developers.

Installation

Linux:

Unzip tar.gz-package

Terminal

$ cd ~
$ tar xvfz DOWNLOADS/apache-tomcat-6.0.20.tar.gz

New folder is "~/apache-tomcat-6.0.20"

Configuration

Add "CATALINA_HOME" environment variable

Ubuntu:

Terminal

$ nano ~/.bashrc
...
export CATALINA_HOME="/home/ralf/apache-tomcat-6.0.20"
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ echo $CATALINA_HOME
~/apache-tomcat-6.0.20
