Additional functionality is available -through the use of plugins. - -This SlackBuild will install GeoServer as a web application for a Tomcat -servlet container. The SlackBuild will not overwrite any geoserver.war file -that has been deployed using /var/lib/tomcat/webapps, but by default they will -both be using the same /geoserver web path. This path can be changed from its -default by editing /etc/tomcat/Catalina/localhost/geoserver.xml. - -The SlackBuild will create a data directory for GeoServer at /var/lib/geoserver -but will not add any content, meaning that uninstalls, reinstalls, and upgrades -will not affect existing data directories. Nevertheless, the data directory -should still always be backed up prior to an upgrade. An empty data directory -will be populated by a minimal set of configuration files when GeoServer is -started for the first time. - -The jai and jai-imageio packages are recommended for improved image rendering -performance. |
