Installation: Installing the plugin on your FileMaker Server

Installation

Servlet rather than a "plugin"

Zulu was introduced as both a traditional server-side plugin and as a small application (a servlet) for FileMaker Server. Newer versions of Zulu are only available as servlets because these offer a lot more configuration options.

Follow the instructions for installing the servlet here:

Installing Zulu as a Servlet

For user with an older version, you can find the older plugin instructions here...

Installing the Plugin Version

...but remember that upgrading to the new version of Zulu is free and is as easy as downloading a new build.

Upgrading to Server 12

If you have Zulu installed and are going to upgrade to FileMaker Server 12, then please uninstall Zulu before proceeding. Server 12 installs different Web Publishing components and this will prevent and conflicts.

Manual Installation

Prerequisites

  • Download and install Apache Tomcat 6.x
  • Add Tomcat to your startup applications
  • Start up Tomcat

Installing Zulu

  • Copy the Zulu.war file from the Installer Data folder into the webapps folder in your Tomcat instance.
  • Modify zulu.xml file located in the conf/Catalina/localhost folder.
    • Specify your username and password on these two lines of the zulu.xml file:

<Parameter name="zulu.adminUsername" value="" override="false" /> <Parameter name="zulu.adminPassword" value="" override="false" />

  • If necessary for your configuration, set up URL forwarding from IIS / Apache to your Tomcat connectors. See Tomcat documentation on how to do this.

Next Steps

Serve the Sample File

Confirm your installation and see Zulu at work by serving the Zulu Sample File on your server. You'll want to do this before adding Zulu to your own file.
