To install the TeamForge connector server (CCF Master), you download and extract a Tomcat distribution, set configuration properties, and run the connector.
Pre-requisites
The
TeamForge connector server requires a Java 6 runtime environment on the computer where it
will run. For the
TeamForge - Quality Center connector, you need a 32-bit runtime.
Note: Make
sure that the environment variable JAVA_HOME points to the JRE you intend to use.
-
Download the latest version of the TeamForge connector server 2.2.1(apache-tomcat-7.0.14) release from here.
-
Extract the apache-tomcat-7.0.14 file into the location where you want to deploy the connector (for example, $CATALINA_HOME). Verify that the properties files ccf.conf and ccfhomeruntimeconfig-template.properties exist in the folder where you extracted the file.
-
Configure the connector.
-
Open the ccf.conf file and set the ccfhome property to a value such as c:/ccf/ccfhome.
-
Copy the ccfhomeruntimeconfig-template.properties file to the location specified by the ccfhome property and rename the file to ccfhomeruntimeconfig.properties.
-
Set the runtime configuration properties for your environment in ccfhomeruntimeconfig.properties.
-
When you're done with your changes, start the Tomcat instance.
You can now access the connector.
Note: If your
TeamForge server uses https and a self-signed SSL certificate, you may get a Java error while connecting the CCF Master to
TeamForge. To resolve this, you need to
import the server certificate into the keystore of the JVM running the CCF Master.
