5 === Installing Hudson ===
6
7 To get Hudson running, the easiest way is to start running tomcat on a server.
8
9 * Install Tomcat from [[http://www.macports.org]] with the command
10
11 {{noformat}}
12
13 sudo /opt/local/bin/port install tomcat6
14
15 {{/noformat}}
16
17 * Create an administrative user in /opt/local/share/java/tomcat6/conf/tomcat-users.xml (20 mins to find out where the user should be and how not to restart tomcat)
18
19 something along the line of:
20
21 {{code value="xml"}}
22
23 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
24 <tomcat-users>
25 <role rolename="manager"/>
26 <role rolename="admin"/>
27 <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="admin,manager"/>
28 </tomcat-users>
29
30 {{/code}}
31
32 {{panel bgColor="#F7D6C1"}}
33
34 Don't forget to change the username and password after you have finished checking out the build server and start using it in production.
35
36 {{/panel}}

38 * Start tomcat
39
40 {{noformat}}
41
42 sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.tomcat6.plist
43
44 {{/noformat}}
45
46 * download Hudson from [[http://hudson.dev.java.net]], take care that you use the contextual menu to download the link hudson war file
47
48 * create a folder /opt/local/var/db/hudson (this will be the place where hudson will store it's stuff
49
50 * change ownership of that folder with ownership //www:_www//
51
52 * add to /opt/local/share/java/tomcat6/conf/setenv.local:
53
54 {{noformat}}
55
56 export HUDSON_HOME=/opt/local/var/db/hudson
57 export JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true
58
59 {{/noformat}}
60
61 * install Hudson in Tomcat: goto [[http://localhost:8080]], login with the user and password that you have created in the tomcat-users.xml, and upload hudson.war to the tomcat server.
62
63 Next goto [[http://localhost:8080/hudson]] and you can start configuring your Hudson build server
