This is really great Raphael, things are much easier!

I noticed a few minor problems:

1. The webapp needs an empty file called
     C:\TOMCAT\WEBAPPS\jetspeed\WEB-INF\log\jetspeed.log
   (otherwise there is a stack trace on startup)

2. Also two empty folders are needed:
     C:\TOMCAT\WEBAPPS\jetspeed\WEB-INF\cache
     C:\TOMCAT\WEBAPPS\jetspeed\WEB-INF\log\tmp

3. The WebMacro.jar is missing from the distribution, causes a stack trace.

4. In JetspeedResources.properties I had to change this property:
      xmlportletcontroller.stylesheet=/WEB-INF/xsl/defaultstyle.xsl

5. Also in JetspeedResources.properties:
     metadata.default.image=image/portlets/default.gif should be changed?
     (I think it should be images/default.gif but that file does not exist)

6. In TurbineResources I changed
     screen.ImageServer.root=/tomcat/webapps/jetspeed/images
      but I wonder if this is really used anywhere?

OK, I've stabilized the WAR support and it's now ready for testing:

Using the WAR:

1. checkout the source and go to the build directory
cd <jetspeedRoot>/build

2. build
[Win32/DOS] .\build webapp
[Win32/cygnus] bash build.sh webapp
[unix] ./build.sh webapp

3. get a servlet 2.2 runner like tomcat
   http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2/bin/

4. unzip the tomcat distribution

5. copy the jetspeed WAR file to the Tomcat webapps directory

[Win32]  copy <jetspeedRoot>\bin\jetspeed.jar <tomcat_home>\webapps\
[Unix]   cp <jetspeedRoot>/bin/jetspeed.jar <tomcat_home>/webapps/

6. start Tomcat

[Win32]   <tomcat_home>\bin\startup.bat
[Unix]    <tomcat_home>/bin/startup.sh

7. Connect to Jetspeed
   http://localhost:8080/jetspeed/

   There are 2 default accounts created:
   Login: turbine Password: turbine
   Login: admin Password: jetspeed

7a. If you want the registration to work and you're on NT without a local
SMTP
    server:
    - either download a free SMTP server implementation and install it on
your
      computer.
      For example: http://java.apache.org/james/
    - or modify the mailhost setting in

<tomcat_home>/webapps/jetspeed/WEB-INF/conf/TurbineResources.properties


I'll strangle the next one who'll ask how to install Jetspeed... :)
