8.5 Apache/Tomcat Installation
WebAccess, WebPublisher, and Monitor rely on the presence
of a Web server in order to fulfil their functions. A number of
Web servers are supported. See GroupWise
System Requirements
in Installing
a Basic GroupWise System
in the GroupWise
7 Installation Guide. In this section, the Apache
Web server and the Tomcat Servlet Engine used to illustrate how
GroupWise integrates with your Web server.

When the user logs back in, the session information is retrieved so that the user can continue working without loss of data. Also, users’ message text is saved during each session, so that if the WebAccess Application is restarted or goes down, users do not lose the message text they were composing at the time.
webpublisher directory
The webpublisher directory holds files used by the WebPublisher Application.
webpub.cfg
The webpub.cfg file holds the same configuration
