Broadleaf Commerce Discussion Forums

While browsing maven archytypes, I see the app is configured to run on jboss app container. I also see tomcat-jetty as a default profile. Does that mean app can be run on tomcat now without any additional configuration? I was also wondering what would be the additional advantage running on jboss vs on tomcat?

We recommend running on Tomcat. If you need a supported version, SpringSource has a few options.

Some clients specifically request other app. containers (including Websphere, Weblogic, and JBoss) and we work with them to get it running on those platforms. Usually this is because the organization already has a support agreement and trained operational resources that are familiar with the chosen application server.

We have several large sites running on Tomcat. We complement Tomcat with ActiveMQ for JMS support.

Thanks for the explanation. That was my understanding as well. But when I saw tomcat-jetty in the pom.xml, I started wondering if the app is made ready to run on tomcat without any additional configuration changes.

Just a quick update here. Documentation for running locally on Tomcat has been added to http://wiki.broadleafcommerce.org/confl ... ion+server

The link above is broken...
I was looking to add local TomCat to my Broadleaf Commerce Demo

This is good information.

I have local tomcat(7.0.34) running. Can I install site and admin WARs on local Tomcat istead of tomcat-demo? What configurations and setting I should be doing?
