Re-assembling Applications

After installation, you may need to reassemble your web applications. You only need to reassemble if your installation includes any old-style JSP-based Escenic publications.

  1. Log in as escenic on your assembly-host.

  2. Run the ece script to re-assemble your Content Store applications

    $ ece assemble

    This generates an EAR file (/var/cache/escenic/engine.ear) that you can deploy on all your engine-hosts.

  3. If you have a single-host installation, then skip this step.

    On each engine-host, copy /var/cache/escenic/engine.ear from the assembly-host. If you have installed an SSH server on the assembly-host and SSH clients on your engine-hosts, then you can do this as follows:

    $ scp escenic@assembly-host-ip-address:/var/cache/escenic/engine.ear /tmp/

    where assembly-host-ip-address is the host name or IP address of your assembly-host.

  4. On each engine-host, deploy the EAR file and restart the Content Store by entering:

    $ ece stop deploy start --file /tmp/engine.ear
    $ ece restart
