Installing a deployment environment on platforms that uses RPM packages is now even easier than ever.

  1. Install a JDK. You can install openjdk with Yum (yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk) or get the JDK from Oracle.
  2. Install the Yum repository of the WOCommunity like this:
sudo curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/wocommunity.repo https://raw.github.com/projectwonder/wonder/master/Utilities/Linux/wocommunity.repo
  1. Once it's done, you can use Yum to install wotaskd, JavaMonitor and the Apache module.
sudo yum install wotaskd; yum install womonitor; yum install woadaptor

And you're done! When the packages are installed, the services are started automatically. JavaMonitor will be running on port 56789. Your Project Wonder applications goes into /opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/Applications.

If you wish to restart wotaskd or Monitor, startup scripts are located in /etc/init.d. You can use the service tool to stop or restart them:

sudo /sbin/service wotaskd stop
sudo /sbin/service womonitor stop

(replace stop with restart to restart them in one step).
