# Update with war files: jetty or tomcat?

Asked by Andras on 2018-05-04

Dear OF-team,

On your website (http://www.openforis.org/tools/collect/tutorials/installation.html) you have a different path (version?) to the most recent war-file than in the pdf manual. The difference being tomcat (website) or jetty (pdf manual). Is there a difference, or both can be used regardless the platform we use (Windows/Linux/Mac)?

Best regards,

Andras

Dear András,  
The link in the website refers the version (latest) of the war file for Tomcat application server, instead the one in the manual refers a version (latest too) of the war file for Jetty application server (the one used by the current version of Collect Desktop).  
They can be used in all platforms but they will work only with the application server they were built for.  
Many thanks,
