Before running the commands shown on this page, you should load the Bitnami stack environment by executing the installdir/use_APPNAME script (Linux and MacOS) or by clicking the shortcut in the Start Menu under “Start -> Bitnami APPNAME Stack -> Application console” (Windows). On OS X VMs, the installation directory is /opt/bitnami and OS X VM users can click the “Open Terminal” button to run commands. Learn more about the Bitnami stack environment and about OS X VMs.

Bitnami stacks include the Apache Web server. There are different ways to connect these two servers. One of them is connecting through the AJP protocol.

  • It bundles the latest versions of Apache, MariaDB, Tomcat, and Java. This open source solution is packaged by Bitnami. Learn how to install, configure, and manage it at docs.bitnami.com. For deployment issues, reach out our support team at community.bitnami.com. Why use Bitnami.
  • What follows is a step by step recipe for taking the Bitnami Tomcat 7 installer and building a Docker image that captures the result of a successful install. Step 0 - Create a VM and install Docker I did this in a single step using Digital Ocean 's ability to select OS / application combos - in this case Docker 1.3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bit).

The AJP Connector element represents a Connector component that communicates with a web connector via the AJP protocol. This is used to invisibly integrate Tomcat into an Apache installation and have Apache handle the static content of the web application and/or to utilize Apache’s SSL processing.

To make them work together, enable the mod_proxy.so and mod_proxy_ajp.so modules in installdir/apache2/conf/httpd.conf. Then, add the following lines to the file:

BitNami Tomcat Stack is distributed for free under the Apache license. Apache Tomcat is an open source servlet container developed by the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). You may want to check out more software, such as Apache Tomcat, BitNami eZ Publish Stack or BitNami Open Atrium Stack, which might be related to BitNami Apache Tomcat Stack.

If you connect your application through AJP, you will probably want to disable the Tomcat HTTP port. The Bitnami Tomcat Stack has the HTTP server disabled by default. To modify this configuration, uncomment the HTTP section in the installdir/apache-tomcat/conf/server.xml file.

Last week we announced the first version of our BitNami Jenkins Stack. This week a new Jenkins version was announced and we have already updated our stack. However, in some cases it is more convenient to upgrade the installation in place than re-installing. This post explains briefly how to upgrade a Jenkins installation manually.
The first step is to understand where the JENKINS_HOME variable is pointing to. That directory is where all your data is stored.
In BitNami we define JENKINS_HOME in the apache-tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/jenkins.xml file pointing to apps/jenkins/jenkins_home. If you want to upgrade Jenkins keeping your data, you just need to download the latest jenkins.war file, copy it in your apache-tomcat/webapps directory and restart Tomcat. It is recommended to create a backup of the previous jenkins.war file, just in case you find issues when upgrading.


On Linux and OSX you can execute the following steps to perform the above (notice that the installation directory is /opt/bitnami in the BitNami virtual appliances and BitNami Amazon Images):

$ ./ctlscript.sh stop
$ cp apache-tomcat/webapps/jenkins.war apps/jenkins/jenkins.war.bak

$ ./ctlscript.sh start

On Windows you can stop the servers from the Start Menu entry or using the graphical tool that you can find in your installation directory. Using the file explorer go to where you installed the BitNami Jenkins Stack. Copy the jenkins.war file from the apache-tomcat/webapps directory to apps/jenkins. Download the latest jenkins.war file and copy it in apache-tomcat/webapps. Now just start the server from the Start Menu or using the graphical tool.

Bitnami Wamp

Alternatively to the process above, you can download a new BitNami Jenkins Stack. You can install it to a different location (remember to stop the previous install so there are no port conflicts) and point it to your previous JENKINS_HOME
