We will have an Oracle database server in ix set up for the students soon. [09/25]
We also have a PostgreSQL database server in ix. If you like to use PostgreSQL, you can setup your account in order to run the engine. [09/08]

Instruction of how to install the tomcat:

log on ix.cs.uoregon.edu
run 'install_tomcat'. Though you can specify the version you would like 
to install, it is recommended that you don't specify the version, 
since only the default (version 5.0) seems to be supported for the install.


   Ex: ix [~]% install_tomcat 

follow the response from the installation's script.



Instruction of how to start and stop:

Since you have more than 1 version, you will need to specify the version you
would like to start or stop.

How to start:
1) run 'start_tomcat' 
   Ex: ix[~]% start_tomcat 


How to stop:
1) run 'stop_tomcat'
   Ex: ix[~]% stop_tomcat 

   Notice: If your server is not running and you try to stop, the connect
   exception is thrown.
   Ex: ix [~]% stop_tomcat 
       ....
       Catalina.stop: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
       java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
       ....
  
  
Run dbaccess
  In running dbaccess, you will get an error message unless you are
  on the machine ix. There is a way, however, to connect directly from other CS
  machines. After starting dbaccess, choose the Connection
  option, and then Connect. In that menu, select the onlintli
  environment, which is essentially an alias to the same server but using a
  different connection protocol. (You will then be asked for a user name and
  password.)
