OpenMRS Core 2.4.0 Ubuntu 18.04 Tomcat7 Postgresql 12

Hi everyone

I’m stuck in the deployment of my environment. I’ve done this steps:

1- followed this post (with openmrs 2.3 war) and found troubles with liquibase so I decided to change to a newer version.

post:OpenMRS+Setup+On+PostgreSQL

2- I found another post with the error of liquibase solved in the lastest version 2.4 (but unfortunately the link lead to 2.3 war)

post:Latest+Platform+Release%3A+OpenMRS+Platform+2.4.0

3- navigating the [[sourceforge.net](http://sourceforge.net)] folders i found a 2.4 war

projects/openmrs/files/nightly/2020-09-04/trunk/

4- I repeated the 2.4.1 installation wizard and finally have the platform installed

5- Im Stuck trying to instal de[legacy UI module](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/User+Interface+Modules) (I haven’t found the “modules” folder in app data folder. I also try creating the folder “modules” in this 2 subdirectories but it doesn’t work

```
  var/chache/tomcat7/Catalina/localhost/openmrs_2.4.0
  var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/openmrs_2.4.0

```

I’m attending to your comments

PD: wonder if It’s possible to install it via terminal command?

Thanks

Can you share your server side log via [pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com)?

@cianca While you work on sharing the logs, the **OpenMRS** [SDK](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK+Step+By+Step+Tutorials#OpenMRSSDKStepByStepTutorials-WhyusetheSDK) commands executed at the root of your **openmrs-core** directory let you set up a Server and an OpenMRS distribution to run; 2.3 or 2.4 among others.

For instance: at location **/home/cianca/openmrs-core$**** mvn openmrs-sdk:setup**

You can setup the following servers:`

1. Distribution`
2. Platform`

Which one do you choose? [1 /2]:

…If you choose Distribution, the SDK will set up with the **openmrs-owa-ui** module (Not Legacy UI). **NOTE:** At the database update step you will see the Legacy UI but the next time you run; **mvn clean install openmrs-sdk:run** to start up your **OpenMRS** instance you will see the openmrs-owa-ui.
