Hi Scott,

It's looking good, but as you were expecting I had a few problems with it :

- First it seem to require some version of Ant to do the installation, or maybe there is a conflict when somebody already has an existing ANT_HOME variable defined. Basically I updated my Ant version from 1.6 to 1.6.2 and it seemed to go further.
- I had problems with getting my MySQL driver using by the Ant script, not entirely sure what's going on there. Here is the Ant script log :
Buildfile: c:\j2\build.xml


install:

build.db:

db.execute:
    [echo] Execing SQL: C:\j2/sql/mysql/phase3ojb-schema.sql
    [echo] C:\temp\mysql-connector-java-3.0.10-stable-bin.jar

BUILD FAILED
C:\j2\build.xml:9: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\j2\build.xml:16: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\j2\build.xml:38: java.sql.SQLException: No suitable Driver for jdbc\:mysql\://localhost/jetspeed?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8


Total time: 0 seconds

- Although I had a failure in the Ant execution, I still got a message telling me the installation had completed successfully. Can you retrieve the execution result of the Ant script ?

Don't let this drag you down, I think this is really great, and it will make J2 install a lot easier to customize. Also while I'm on the subject, what would be great is to have "predefined" settings for databases, so that the user would first select the DB type, and then it would present the screen with all the parameters for the datasource, already filled in with the default values for the database. Let me know how I can help !

cheers,
 Serge...

Well, I finally got the binary installer for J2 M1 finished, here is a temporary link: http://www.binary-designs.net/downloads.html. The download takes a little time to start but fairly quick once it does.

The only requirements are that you have a compatible version of the JDK 1.4.2, installed, see: http://wiki.apache.org/portals/Jetspeed2/PrefsClassloaderIssuesAndSdk14 for mor info.

It is a little rough and needs some cleaning and tweaking but it's a start ;)

Have fun!
