| VS is distributed as a Zip file. This can be downloaded from | |
| <a class="ulink" href="http://www.eclipse.org/virgo/download/" target="_top">here</a>. | |
| </p><p> | |
| Once the Zip file is unpacked you will find several things inside, including a copy of this documentation in the | |
| <code class="literal">docs</code> folder. The layout is shown below. | |
| </p><p> | |
| </p><table border="0" summary="manufactured viewport for HTML img" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="425"><tr><td align="center"><img src="images/snapsZipFile.png" align="middle" width="425"></td></tr></table><p> | |
| </p><p> | |
| Take the bundles and plan in the <code class="literal">dist</code> folder and place them in either the <code class="literal">/repository/usr</code> | |
| or <code class="literal">/repository/ext</code> folder of your Virgo install. Later you need the bundles in the <code class="literal">sample</code> | |
| folder. If you wish to view the source for VS or its sample, then these are in the <code class="literal">src</code> | |
| folder. | |
| </p><p> | |
| In order to start the Snaps system as a part of your Virgo Tomcat Server, the Snaps plan needs to be referenced | |
| from the <code class="literal">initialArtifacts</code> property. This is located in the config file at | |
| <code class="literal">${SERVER_HOME}/config/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.userregion.properties</code>. The property should be | |
| extended like this. | |
| </p><pre class="screen">initialArtifacts=repository:plan/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.userregion.springdm, | |
| repository:plan/org.eclipse.virgo.web.tomcat, | |
| <span class="emphasis"><em>repository:plan/org.eclipse.virgo.snaps</em></span></pre><p> | |
| Now you are ready to check that Snaps is working. | |
