A special thanks to the Mac tech support at ITS who made the Mac Greenstone release possible.

Once you have successfully installed Greenstone3, you can start up the server by choosing Greenstone3 Digital Library from the Start menu (Windows) or running gs3-server.sh/bat. This launches a small server program which starts up Tomcat and launches a browser. A small window pops up which allows you to change some settings for your library and restart the Tomcat server. Closing this program will stop Tomcat running. By default, your library will be available at localhost:8383/greenstone3/library. File→Settings in the Greenstone Server window gives you options to change the port number and which browser it uses by default.

More notes about running Greenstone can be found in the README.txt file in the top level Greenstone folder.

Tomcat has been upgraded to 8.5.99. This allows the specification of partitioned SameSite=none Cookies. This is necessary if you are running greenstone in an iframe. Edit resources/tomcat/greenstone3.xml.in and uncomment the relevant CookieProcessor line.
