If you want to get started quickly and have a Tomcat installation up and running, Pebble can be deployed in a couple of minutes by following some simple steps.

  1. Download Pebble from here.
  2. Copy pebble.war from the pebble-weblog directory into $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps.
  3. Add the followng line into the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml file, before the final closing tag.
    <user username="someuser" password="password" roles="blog-owner,blog-contributor"/>
  4. Restart Tomcat and (assuming a default local installation) point your browser to http://localhost:8080/pebble/.
  5. Pebble should now be running and you can login using the Login link at the bottom of the page.
