Thanks to Kevin Lindsey for his 2D SVG routines.
All dialogues now use Active Widgets Free edition for grid presentation.

Searching our static pages on the info site and the help
is provided by Tipue JS and the crawler Endsheet.
Jan-Klaas Kollhof provided us with his useful SVG compression tools.
For file upload we have included jspsmartupload from JspSmart (now reverse engineered).
Connection pooling independent from DBMS is done with the PoolMan poolmanager (now reverse engineered).

Installing instructions

- Install the selected Java JDK (The Application server requires it).
- Install Tomcat, AppServer or JBoss in a directory of your choice.
- Deploy the openmodeling.war file. Follow the instructions for your application server.
- Install MySQL, SQLServer, Oracle or DB2 according to the manufacturers instructions.
- For MySQL the installation script install.bat/install.sh is added that works at least for Windows and Linux.
- Install the corresponding JDBC driver (not for Oracle and DB2).
- Copy the driver .jar(s) or .zip(s) to the following directory:
  Tomcat        {installation-dir}/webapps/openmodeling-224/WEB-INF/lib
  Sun AppServer {installation-dir}/domains/domain1/applications/j2ee-modules/openmodeling-om224/WEB-INF/lib
  JBoss         {installation-dir}/server/default/deploy/openmodeling-224.war/WEB-INF/lib
  Websphere     {installation-dir}/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/installedApps/xxxxxxxNode01Cell/om224.ear/openmodeling-224.war/WEB-INF/lib
  WebSphere CE	Runs the application from the .warfile. Add the driver to openmodeling-224.war/WEB-INF/lib
  Bea Weblogic  {installation-dir}/wlserver_10.0/samples/domains/wl_server/servers/examplesServer/tmp/_WL_user/openmodeling-224/xxxxxx/war/WEB-INF/lib
  In this directory you will find a list of required files in a file "directory content".
- Install the SVG viewer at the clients according to the manufacturers instructions.
- Open modeling has three standard users:
  1. admin with password om as administrator;
  2. model with password om as modeler;
  3. guest without password as viewer.
- You are automatically logged on as a guest user, when you select in the main menu Access, Logon where you can
  relogon as the user you want to.

For migration from 4.1 to 5.0 MySQL version follow chapter 2.10 in the 5.0 version manual.
For migration from 5.0 to 5.1 MySQL version follow chapter 2.11 in the 5.1 version manual.

Using a different DBMS
As a standard database we deliver MySQL, but we do support currently the following databases:
- DB2/NT: use db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar (from Ibm/Sqllib/java)
- MySQL: use mysql-connector-java-5.1.13-bin.jar (from mysql-connector-java-5.1.13/lib)
- Oracle: use ojdbc6.jar (from Oracle/product/db_1/jdbc) for version 11.1.0
- SQLServer: use sqljdbc.jar (from Microsoft SQL Server 2008 driver for JDBC version 2.0)

The recommended database password is Anne_mar. Of course you want to change that after testing. It is
only referenced in the file poolman.props in the WEB-INF/classes of the Web-application.

If you want to use one of the other databases, download one of the other openmodeling-xxx-224.zip files.
You will find installation instructions in the included readme.
