Tomcat Integration

There are mainly two ways to configure Atomikos and Tomcat.

Per WAR file

You can get Atomikos running locally inside your web application. In this case you have multiple web applications the transaction manager will be replicated and need to access its own transaction logs.

See Tomcat 5.5 self-contained WAR to know how to configure this. Those guidelines are also valid for Tomcat 6.

Globally

You can install Atomikos in such a way that it integrates with Tomcat the J2EE way. In that case you only have one transaction manager shared by all web applications with a single set of transaction logs like in any classic full-blown J2EE server.
