Configuring

Running

If you already have executed a full checkout:

1. Start tomcat.
2. Open a command prompt and go to the production folder.
   1. If desired, this can be run only for a particular product. In this case You need to go to production/products/YOUR_PRODUCT.
   2. If only 1 product was checked out using subversion, then you run the maven command at the root of the checkouted project.
3. Type:

   mvn -DskipTests clean install

4. The build will take some time and during the first time you run, maven will take some time to download all dependencies to the folder YOUR_HOME/.m2/repository, where YOUR_HOME is $HOME for linux or C:\Users\YOUR_USER at windows. This will be executed only at the first time and subsequent execution will not require download again.
5. Wait till maven finish will a SUCCESSFUL BUILD message.

   If you did not execute the full checkout, you will need to bookmark this section and back to it after you checkout using eclipse subclipse plugin.
