Quick installation : WS-Messenger

1. Download Messenger here and extract to a location, which will later be pointed as WSNT_HOME.

2. create a mysql database, use db/mysqlCreationScript.txt to create the tables in the database

3. update the config/db.config to point to the data base (sample here).

4. run ant war to create war file. messenger.war will be created inside WSNT_HOME/distribution folder.

5. Download and install a web container (we use apache tomcat), deploy the war file by dropping it into the tomcat webapps folder, and start tomcat.

6. run ./startMessenger.sh at WSNT_HOME to start the messenger. [In Windows, it is the *.bat file]. If the downloaded version's startMessenger has any trouble, try this.

Starting the message broker includes two processes.

The war file deployed in the web container, can be reached at http://localhost:8080/messenger/ after starting the web container. It is called the broker.

Delivery thread of WS-Messenger can be reached at http://localhost:12347/ by running the startMessenger.
