To make it easier to configure standalone tasks for the Planet Roller webapp, I've implemented some improvements in the way that the database connection is configured. I'd like to move that code into Roller proper so we can simplify the rollertask.sh script and setup.
Here's the proposal: http://rollerweblogger.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Proposal_ImproveDatabaseConfig And if you take a look at the TaskRunner and PlanetHibernatePersistenceStrategy (under sandbox/planetroller), you can see the code that does the work. - Dave
