[news.eclipse.technology.cosmos] Re: help with MDR creation

[David Whiteman <dlwhiteman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Nithya,

If you have the 1.0M3 build installed that we just made available 
yesterday, and you have the COSMOS SDK installed in Eclipse, you can 
select the MDR project, right click and select Run As > Run On Server. 
This will cause a Tomcat instance to be started, and will automatically 
open an instance of the COSMOS Web UI so you can do some testing.  That 
doesn't answer the question of how you deploy to production, but might 
help you at least run your MDR for testing purposes.

Hope this helps,
David
