Overview

Fusion Registry Core, Fusion Edge Server and other modules are Java applications which run under a Java Web Application Server.

A number of different open source and commerical options are available, but this guide explains how to install the free to use Apache Tomcat.

Installing the Apache Tomcat

Download and install Apache Tomcat.

Choose either Tomcat 8.5 or 9.0.

Changing the Tomcat port number

Tomcat's default configuration is to serve its applications on port 8080. That means, by default, the Fusion Registry user interface will be available on the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/FusionRegistry

You will need to choose a different port if other software on the machine is already using port 8080.

  • Go to tomcat>conf folder
  • Edit server.xml
  • Search "Connector port"
  • Replace "8080" by your port number
  • Restart tomcat server.
