<p>Hi.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is my first post.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had the task to install birt-viewer on a ubuntu14 server with tomcat7.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had follow different tutorials but there something that don't allow me to be happy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The steps are clear.</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p> </p>
<p>Install tomcat7 server</p>
<p>Tested</p>
<p>Download birt-runtime</p>
<p>unzip</p>
<p>deploy birt.war in tomcat</p>
<p>copy viewer to tomcat</p>
<p>tested</p>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>Not difficult steps.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I see 2 things that is taking my attention:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>1) I had deploy birt from tomcat7 gui, I see birt on my tomcat apps list, is not running do we need to start that app?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Because every time I try to start birt I got this error from tomcat:</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p> </p>
<p>FAIL - Application at context path /birt could not be started</p>
<div>FAIL - Encountered exception org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/birt]]</div>

<p> </p>
<p>But some tutorials don't mention this.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2) If I access the URL <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='
http://my-ip:8080/birt'>http://my-ip:8080/birt</a>I can see the "BIRT viewer has been installed." But went I click on the example I got this error: </p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p> </p>
<p>HTTP Status 404 - /frameset</p>
<div> </div>
<div>type Status report</div>
<div> </div>
<div>message /frameset</div>
<div> </div>
<div>description The requested resource is not available.</div>
<div>Apache Tomcat/7.0.52 (Ubuntu)</div>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The tutorials are clear but what I forgot to do?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is a ubuntu 14 server with tomcat7, I even install openjdk-7-jdk but didn't fix the issue.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Any help will be appreciated, thanks!!!</p>
