Re: People complaining about a real release

[Jacques Le Roux]

Yes sure, as I said in my 1st point :o). BTW the new README file will now be :
<<To run OFBiz this simple sequence:

1. Depending of your platform, launch OFBiz using startofbiz.bat or 
startofbiz.sh
2. Give OFBiz a minute or two to start up...
3. Browse to
   ERP : https://localhost:8443/catalog/control/main (login/pwd are ofbiz/admin)
   Ecommerce application : http://localhost:8080/ecommerce/control/main (when checking out you may use as login/pwd 
DemoCustomer/ofbiz)

   Enjoy


If they wants to fo further they will have to use svn...
Any other opinions (for instance, should we go the way Adian suggested and I 
agreed with ?)

Are you doing an svn export - to remove all the .svn folders?

Adrian,

Yes good idea, using Potgres I forgot Derby. A bit more work on our side
though. Moreover, as we don't know the platform which will
be used, we have to add the plugin.jar in base/lib in each.

FYI, the respective size of zipped trunk and release are 50MB and 40MB before
creating demo data in Derby and 66MB, 53MB after

&gt; Why not have the zip file contain a ready-to-run version of OFBiz? In
other words, run the install, then zip it.

&gt; Hi all,
&gt;
&gt; I began to work on this, I request your opinions, advices.
&gt;
&gt; I have :
&gt;
&gt; 1. Made an svn export of trunk (rev. 664255) and release4.0 (rev. 664343)
and
&gt; zipped them in 2 zip archives, respectively
&gt; ofbizTrunk.zip and ofbizRelease4.0.zip
&gt; 2. Created a README file to be put in each zip (I think we should add
&gt; respective rev. numbers in them, WDYT ?), content:
&gt;
&gt; &amp;lt;&amp;lt;In order to run OFBiz you you need to have ant installed
and ANT_HOME
&gt; in your path. Then follow this simple sequence:
&gt;
&gt; 1. In a terminal or command line window, go to the directory where you
unzipped
&gt; OFBiz
&gt; 2. Type and run : ant run-install
&gt; 3. Wait till the database is filled with demo data...
&gt; 4. Depending of your platform, launch OFBiz using startofbiz.bat or
&gt; startofbiz.sh
&gt; 5. Give OFBiz a minute or two to start up...
&gt; 6. Browse to
&gt;    ERP : https://localhost:8443/catalog/control/main (login/pwd are
&gt; ofbiz/admin)
&gt;    Ecommerce application : http://localhost:8080/ecommerce/control/main
(when
&gt; checking out you may use as login/pwd
&gt; DemoCustomer/ofbiz)
&gt;
&gt;    Enjoy
