🏗 The CLDR site has been migrated to a new platform. Formatting and links continue to be fixed.
Note: those new to Survey Tool development are recommended to use the much simpler Eclipse setup.
Build the CLDR Tools using the command line (or using eclipse) to produce cldr.jar
Download and install Tomcat somewhere (don't use spaces in your directory names-please.).
Verify that you can view pages from this server (such as at http://127.0.0.1:8080 ).
Configure Manager access for a user
Check out http://unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/ somewhere. This will be referred to as CLDR_DIR later.
go into tools/java and run "ant all jar"
go into tools/cldr-apps
Copy build-sample.properties to build.properties
Uncomment/edit all of the MANDATORY and potentially other lines in build.properties as follows:
set CATALINA_HOME to the root directory of your Tomcat installation
set password ( and potentially username if it is not 'admin' ) to match the "Manager access" user, above.
CLDR_TOOLS shouldn't need to be set, as it is a sibling to the cldr-apps directory
Set other lines according to the build.properties column of this table, (may be out of date- 2014)
To test compilation, run: ant web
(If there are any failures, check build.properties)
"ant war" will build cldr-apps.war.
Start up Tomcat ( cd tomcat/bin ; sh startup.sh )
Run (the first time): ant deploy
If all goes well, it will install onto the server, as http://yourserver:8080/cldr-apps
Test out the above URL (substituting your server's name or 127.0.0.1 and the port number)-
If all goes well, you should see the page titled 'CLDR Web Applications'.
Great, now Follow the CLDR SurveyTool setup instructions , remembering:
...the location of your "cldr/trunk" checkout to be used as CLDR_DIR.
...that you must use the tomcat/bin/startup.sh and tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh scripts to restart tomcat
...that you will find 'context.xml' as a text file inside the tomcat/conf/ directory
