| Warning |
|---|
Only direct database access should be used for operational use of the FEWS Web Services. A standalone configuration can be used, but only has limited functionality. For example only the Derby local data store is supported and workflows depending on DLL's (or .so files on Linux) are NOT supported. |
Configure a default filter in the Filters.xml of the FEWS configuration with the name of the filter that should be used for all requested timeSeries: "${catalina.home}/fews/Region_Home/Config/RegionConfig/Filters.xml"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <filters version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.wldelft.nl/fews" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.wldelft.nl/fews http://fews.wldelft.nl/schemas/version1.0/filters.xsd"> <defaultFilterId>All</defaultFilterId> ... |
Alternatively a property file can be used to configure the default filter (and other properties as well). The property file should be located at: "${catalina.home}/fews/Region_Home/Config/PiClientConfigFiles/FewsPiService.properties". In the following code snippet the default filter to be used by the FEWS Web Services is configured using the property key "FILTER_ID" where the filter "All" has been configured. A filter configured in hte FewsPiService.properties overrules the default filter in the Filters.xml.

FILTER_ID=All |
N.B.: In versions before FEWS 2017.02 it was possible to override the FewsPiService.properties with another name or location. This is no longer supported. Only one property file can be used for all services and the name is fixed to FewsPiService.properties.
If the previous configurations have been applied, the FewsWebServices.war can be installed using the standard deployment options of Tomcat. See the tomcat deployment documentation for more information. When installing a new version of the FewsWebServices.war file it is recommended to restart tomcat after deployment.
Testing
The FEWS Web Services come with a testing page that can be accessed at: http://localhost:8080/FewsWebServices/. This leads to an overview page with links to test pages for the different services (SOAP, REST, WaterML, Digitale Delta and UmAquo). You can find more on how to configure the different services on 18 FEWS data exchange interfaces.
See Tomcat Installation as Windows Service usage for running the Web Services as a Windows service.
| Info |
|---|
The default tomcat installation runs at port 8080. Change the port value in case your tomcat installation runs on another port. |
Security
FEWS Web Services can be protected using the capabilities of the Tomcat Application Server. See FEWS Web Services Tomcat Security for more information.
Migrating from before 2017.02
...
Running the FEWS Web Services in standalone mode is only supported for the Derby local datastore with limited functionality. Please see the previous Installation section if an existing non-Derby local datastore needs to be converted to Derby using the Database replication functionality of FEWS. For full functionality configure a clientConfig.xml file with a direct database connection.
