I need a copy of terracotta open source server 4.3.5.
(Why: I'm updating a legacy app, which I want to get
- into a docker container
- updated from Java 7 -> 8
It's currently running a terracotta client (ehcache-terracotta 2.6.3) that isn't compatible with Java 8 against Terracotta OSS server 3.7.3, and I want to target a later version compatible with the ehcache 2.x API; 4.3.5 already has an official docker build of the server available. Unfortunately, it seems that the Dockerised server can only be used as part of a Docker network, because it identifies its randomised hostname (like
08e76c91d4a6) as the server host, and the multiplicity of interrelated terrcotta/ehcache dependencies is so brittle I want to get it running locally before trying to add it to a container.)
The official downloads page http://www.terracotta.org/downloads/ refers you to a SVN repo at http://svn.terracotta.org/svn/tc/ with no further instructions. I've never used SVN, but Googled my way to trying
svn checkout http://svn.terracotta.org/svn/tc/
and figured I'd just search for "start-tc-server.sh". However, this clearly contains multiple projects; I had to stop because the download took hours and filled the available space of my hard disk, and at this point
find . -name 'start-tc-server'
returns nothing.
A quick manual inspection of the repo's top level doesn't make it obvious to me what I should be looking for to narrow it down a bit.
I can't find any instructions on the terracotta site, or anywhere else on the internet, on how to turn that link to a monster SVN repository into a running instance of the version of Terracotta server that I want.
How do I do this please?
