Hello fellow developers, I followed http://curriki.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/InstallationInstructionsbuilding with maven 2.0.9 on MacOSX to get curriki running on a development machine.
- building went very fine- tried changing things in xwiki.cfg but the indicated property is not there and xwiki.cfg contains an amount of "undefined" values, importantly the encoding and default-Skin among others. I could add each of the missing properties (i.e. the properties used in xwiki.cfg generation) by adding sibblings of the element <xwikiCfgEditCommentMandatory>. Similarly, I could add the dependency on our postgres driver by enriching the dependencies in this pom.xml, and I could add a few properties which seemed not correct in xwiki.cfg in the xwikiCfgAdditionalProperties element. I also activated superadmin... the indicated admin password didn't work there I think.
- changing the hibernate.cfg.xml I could do as well, but it should be said not to change the one in target... since it gets overriddent at every build, but the one in web/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF
At the end I got, with two changed files, a webapp that seems to match my expectations and which actually started. Ideally, these changes should happen in an extra file... is there space for this? Something such as ~/build.properties in maven-1?
After changing catalina.sh to bump memory, I could import the xar (which I built as well). There I got stuck because I had to put albatross and not toucan as default and base skins.
After that I could import the xar and it started looking like curriki. The log showed an amount of errors which I've ignored thus far. I concluded with the three manual steps... are they here to stay?Should I try to update the installation instructions or are there enhancements to my procedure? I'm pretty happy with this adventure.... I could, right away, record a podcast.
