2. The environment must have Apache Tomcat installed. Ensure that CATALINA_HOME is set to the Tomcat installation folder. Tomcat 6 is the preferred version. 

Source Checkout

Checkout the grouper source from the project source repository:

git

...

 checkout git@github.com:Internet2/grouper.git

Build

1. Navigate to grouper-ui\webapp\WEB-INF\build.properties and specify the path to your Tomcat installation folder.

...
domain=/Users/apache-tomcat/webapps
serverhome=/Users/apache-tomcat

2. From the grouper root directory, execute:

ant all

The result will be GroupsManager.war that will exist inside Tomcat\webappsthe ${domain} directory.

Test

Wiki Markup1. Modify your Tomcat\conf\your ${server}/conf/tomcat-users.xml file to include the following snippet: snippet:

<role rolename="grouper_user"/>

...

<user username="GrouperSystem" password="GrouperSystem" roles="grouper_user"/>

2>2. Open up a command prompt, and navigate to grouper/grouper directory and execute:

start-hsql.

...

[sh

...

|bat

...

]

. This will spin up an HSQL database instance. Keep this running in the background.

3. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/GroupsManager^{Image Removed}, authenticate with GrouperSystem/GrouperSystem and you should see the grouper home page.

Debugging

1. In your Tomcat\bin directory, locate the startup.[bat|sh] and include the following lines at the top:

set JPDA_ADDRESS=8000
set JPDA_TRANSPORT=dt_socket

2. In your IDE (Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA) set up a remote debugger that would connect to port 8000. Here is a snapshot of what it would look like in IDEA:

3. Restart Tomcat. In the tomcat log, you should see an entry that says:

Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000
...

4. In your IDE, attach the debugger to the new remote debugger (Tomcat above) you created by starting a new debug session. 

5. Set breakpoints and interact with grouper. The debugger should halt on each breakpoint.
