Installation

Kinetic Calendar v2.0 is distributed as a war file, and requires a Java Servlet Container such as Apache Tomcat. Unlike previous versions of Kinetic Calendar, there are no Remedy forms or workflow, so nothing else needs to be installed.

To install Kinetic Calendar v2.0, all you need to do is deploy the war file to your web server, or more specifically to your Java Servlet Container. The method to do this varies by web server, so you may need to consult the documentation for your web server if you are unfamiliar with deploying web applications.

For Apache Tomcat, you can copy the war file to the Tomcat webapps directory, and the application will automatically deploy if the web server is running, or it will auto deploy when the web server is started.
