X. Was the installation successful?
X. Setup Apache Tomcat Connector
It is recommend that a Tomcat Connector, such as mod_jk be used to ensure that
the site address does not include the port number and any extraneous Tomcat
context.
For example - http://example.com instead of http://example.com:8080/vivo
Using the mod_jk connector allows for communication between Tomcat and the
primary web server. The "Quick Start HowTo" on the Apache site
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/generic_howto/quick.html describes
the minimum server configurations for several popular web servers.

XI. Configure Pellet Reasoner
VIVO uses the ÒPelletÓ engine to perform reasoning, which runs in the
background at startup and also when the knowledge base is edited. VIVO
continues serving pages while the reasoner continues working; when it finishes,
the new inferences appear. Inferred statements are cached in a database graph
so that they are available immediately when VIVO is restarted.
By default, ÒPelletÓ is fed only an incomplete view of your ontology and only
certain inferences are materialized. These include rdf:type,
rdfs:subClassOf,owl:equivalentClass, and owl:disjointWith. This mode is
typically suitable for ontologies with a lot of instance data. If you would
like to keep the default mode, skip to the next step.
To enable "complete" OWL inference (materialize all significant entailed
statements), openvitro-core/webapp/config/web.xml and search for
PelletReasonerSetup.
Then change the name of the listener class to PelletReasonerSetupComplete.
Because "complete" reasoning can be very resource intensive, there is also an
option to materialize nearly all inferences except owl:sameAs and
owl:differentFrom.
This is enabled by specifying PelletReasonerSetupPseudocomplete. For ontologies
with large numbers of individuals, this mode can offer enormous performance
improvements over the "complete" mode.
Finally, a class called PelletReasonerSetupPseudocompleteIgnoreDataproperties
is provided to improve performance on ontologies with large literals where
datatype property entailments are not needed.

XII. Was the installation successful?
If you have completed the previous steps, you have good indications that the
installation was successful.
