J2EE Implementation

During installation of ENOVIA products, all files are installed to the STAGING\ subdirectory of the ENOVIA Live Collaboration Server directory structure. After all applications are installed, you must run the WAR utility to create archive files in the distrib\ directory.

Keep the following important points in mind when making changes to framework and application files, including changes to emxSystem.properties, emxLogin.properties, any StringResource file, and any changes or additions to the JSPs:

  • Always make changes to the files within the STAGING\ directory and not to the corresponding archive file. If you make changes within the archive file, you risk overwriting those changes the next time you run the WAR utility.
  • Remember to rerun the WAR utility and redeploy the archive file every time you make changes to files in the STAGING\ directory. Restart the application server after deploying the archive file.
