Unfortunately, I'm not sure that this will work on your Linux server.



--> The basic idea behind our controlapp and the bundled Jetty 7 Servlet 
Container is to let *Windows* users quickly deploy XMLmind XSL Server.

On Windows, controlapp can start the bundled Jetty 7 Servlet Container 
as a native service. See "Run XMLmind XSL Server as a Windows® native 
service", 
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/_distrib/xslsrv/doc/help/nativeService.html#nativeService



--> On Linux, the situation is different: controlapp cannot start the 
bundled Jetty 7 Servlet Container as a native Unix daemon.

We explain this in the documentation "Running XMLmind XSL Server as a 
Unix daemon", 
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/_distrib/xslsrv/doc/help/unixDaemon.html#unixDaemon

Currently controlapp does not allow to run XMLmind XSL Server as a Unix 
daemon. On the Mac and on Linux, you may use controlapp to configure 
XMLmind XSL Server but after that, you'll need to write the init script 
by hand and then install this script in the proper place.

However we have no idea about how to write a Unix init script or install 
this script in the proper place. We never did that. We never tested that.



--> On Linux, it's recommended to install a Tomcat server as a Unix 
daemon. How to do this should be well documented on the Web. (This is 
what our own Unix sysadmin has done on our http://www.xmlmind.com/ server.)

After you manage to do that and have Tomcat server running as a Unix 
daemon, simply deploy XMLmind XSL Server as any normal web app.

If you prefer to use a .war file for that, building xslsrv.war is very 
simple:

---
$ cd xslsrv_install_dir/xslsrv

$ ls
addon
mime.types
resource
WEB-INF

$ jar cvf ../xslsrv.war *
---

(xslsrv.war is expected to directly contain addon/, mime.types, 
resource/, WEB-INF/)
