XWiki is a powerful and customizable open-source collaboration platform. It allows you to create wikis, blogs, and pages with ease. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install XWiki on your POP! OS latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
XWiki requires Java to run. You can install OpenJDK, the open-source implementation of Java, by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless
You can download the latest version of XWiki from their official website. Download the XWiki WAR distribution file.

First, install Tomcat 9 by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install tomcat9
Once Tomcat is installed, copy the XWiki WAR file to the Tomcat webapps directory:
sudo cp xwiki-enterprise-web-<version>.war /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ROOT.war
Then, restart the Tomcat service:
sudo systemctl restart tomcat9
