[OFBiz] Users - Deploying OFBiz on Mac OS X Server

[David E. Jones]

Most of the information you need about OFBiz is in the Basic  
Production Setup Guide, which you can download from here:

http://www.undersunconsulting.com/control/onlineinfo.html

If you aren't familiar with the operating system and database enough  
to do the basic things described in that document you probably don't  
have many options and you'll have to pay someone to get in and do it  
for you, or spend some time with a couple of good books about those.

Note that if it is a small deployment that won't see much traffic you  
can just use the built-in Derby database, and then you won't have to  
configure anything there. You'll want to use the embedded Tomcat  
server rather than trying to deploy OFBiz in the Tomcat that comes  
with the system, unless you get a kick out of copying hundreds of  
files around and keeping them synchronized if you ever update or  
change anything... I'd only recommend that if you are VERY familiar  
with Tomcat and J2EE in general, and it sounds like that isn't the case.

It sounds like most of this doesn't really have much to do with  
OFBiz, but all of the info you need about OFBiz is available in the  
document mentioned above.
