Re: Developer: I can't host a static website

Hi Stephan, hi all, I've upated the tutorial pages (for both 1.0 and 1.1 documentation) in order to clarify the usage of the ROOT_URI constant. Actually the tutorial code makes implicit reference to the code of the org.restlet.example module (especially the org.restlet.example.tutorial.Constant class). But as you say, this reference is not obvious. I hope the things are clearer now. Thanks for reporting this! Best regards, Thierry Boileau -- Restlet ~ Core developer ~ http://www.restlet.org Noelios Technologies ~ Co-founder ~ http://www.noelios.com Hi Thierry, as I startet with Restlet, I stumbled about the same stone. You should add a constant or something like that at the start of the example code in the example on www.restlet.org. best regards Stephan -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: "Thierry Boileau" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gesendet: 12.11.08 10:53:07 An: discuss@restlet.tigris.org Betreff: Re: Developer: I can't host a static website Hello, I wonder if you set up properly the ROOT_URI variable (something like "file://...."). if you want to be sure, you can use the LocalReference#createFileRefer ence method. It takes a directory path (something like "d:/temp/..." or "/tmp/...") as an argument. That is to say: return new Directory(getContext(), LocalReference.createFileReference( "path to your directory")); Best regards, Thierry Boileau -- Restlet ~ Core developer ~ http://www.restlet.org Noelios Technologies ~ Co-founder ~ http://www.noelios.com Hi This code is in Restlet tutorial // Create a componentComponent component = new Component();component.getServers().add(Protocol.HTTP, 8182);component.getClients().add(Protocol.FILE);// Create an applicationApplication application = new Application() { @Override public Restlet createRoot() { return new Directory(getContext(), ROOT_ URI); }};// Attach the application to the component and start itcomponent.getDefaultHost().attach("", application);component.start() ; I can't have the navigated resource on my browser whatever the ROOT_ URI is, what is chances?
