     Warning

     Si vous utilisez Sakai 2.9.1 or earlier you need to be running ou une version antérieure, vous devez utiliser Tomcat 7.0.21 or earlier. If you go any higher Webdav and Sitestats will have errors and not work. A better solution is to upgrade to the latest version of Sakai and ou une version antérieure. Si vous utilisez une version supérieure à la 7.0.21, Webdav et Sitestats auront des erreurs et ne fonctionneront pas. La meilleure solution est de passer à la dernière version de Sakai et de Tomcat.

2. Extract to /opt (symlink the apache-tomcat-7.0.x directory to tomcat after extracting)

   2. Windows(PC): Create a file called setenv.bat with the following:

      Code Block
      set JAVA_OPTS=-server -Xmx1028m -XX:MaxPermSize=320m -Dorg.apache.jasper.compiler.Parser.STRICT_QUOTE_ESCAPING=false -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true
