Thanks Howard (and others, of course). I took a little time off, away from Nukes anyway, to learn more Java structure while waiting for the 1.0 release to come out. My expectations of course were that it would be a little easier, but i was a little disappointed. Sorry, don't mean to offend, but it took me a few hours to go from the fairly functional snapshot from mid-February to the 20040304 snapshot. I tried the wiki instructions and installer (which really only seems to setup the database right now, was hoping it would do more). Here's what i found....
| i'm using postgreSQL so there was a big warning telling me that it only works with mySQL, but i'm used to taking the hard road so i did it anyway. | | the installer let me choose my old datasource but failed to drop the tables correctly, so i was forced to drop them manually | | there was an error creating some of the databases so i had to track it down to a couple of inserts that were trying to use "0" instead of "false" for a boolean column. | | Fixed the setup.xml's for those faulty dB inserts but had to build clean and redeploy a few times to get it setup correctly, but it did. I would commit these back to the repository but i'm a definite newb when it comes to CVS. Will need to see about something other than anonymous access. | | The deploy-components target fails because /server/default/nukes/ directory doesn't exist - the installer should probably create that one for you if it doesn't already exist - this part of the process is mentioned on the NukesDBSetup wiki but not on the installUninstallUpgrade wiki. | | Tried to deploy it as-is but choked on the dB - it thought i was using mySQL. This seemed odd because the installer knew i was choosing a pgsql dB. Of course i eventually found the line that explained how i needed to change a line in the local.properties file to reflect the dB-type. This part was awful and i'm sure will keep many people from successfully installing Nukes. I guess i didn't think the NukesDBSetup wiki applied to me because i'd already setup my dB for an older snapshot of Nukes. I'd say mention the dB-type/local.properties config on the install wiki so people get it. | | | | | So that was about it, after a few more cleaning, builds, and redeploys. It was late though so i didn't even get a chance to play with it. Guess i should stop writing this message and go see.
