Hi Vincent,
let's fix the logging issue first. I already reviewed the AdminGuide before,
it includes no information about changing a directory for the log file.
It does but it wasn't clear. Is it better now?
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Logging
I started the Tomcat-script from various directories, where the rights are
sufficient, with no success.
There's no other reason for it not to work.
At the moment, it would be fine for me to switch logging of, is there any
chance to do it that way?
This is a standard log4j config file. You can simply not define the file
appender.
Thanks

Best regards

Hello Vincent,
first of all: you're doing a great job with xwiki.
In respect to the startup logging issue: All tomcat5-subdirectories have
root:tomcat rights, I also tried the java dictionaries, but it didn't work
out. I even started tomcat directly in the xwiki directory
(/etc/init.d/tomcat5 start), but it didn't help too. Unfortunately I have no
idea, in which directory the jvm wants to write. If I could set it to a fix
location (i.e. /var/log/xwiki), I probably could fix it. I attached the
excerpt from the tomcat logfile.
It tries to write to a file named xwiki.log in the directory from where
tomcat is started.
If you want to control the location of the log file, see
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Logging
In respect to the import of the initial structure I attach a screenshot.
I've just tested import the default XAR in an empty xwiki and it worked fine.
I've tried both in XE 2.4-SNAPSHOT and in XE 2.3 (the version you're using).
Can you give us the exact steps you've followed so that we can try to
reproduce it?
Thanks

PS: Please use the mailing list to reply
I can provide ssh or web access - in case it saves time.
Thank you very much for your personal investigation and support. Hopefully I
may support you later.
Best regards

Hello xwiki users,
In the past (some years ago) I was using the first timer version of
xwiki only, this was fine for development.
Now I need to run xwiki on a more professional environment, the base is
CentOS 5.5 (current and most recent version), including tomcat 5.5 and
mysql 5. Tomcat starts as service and during this startup logging claims
not to be able to create / access xwiki.log.
You need to give permission to the user who starts tomcat to write to the
location where the log file is.
When the xwiki application starts, everything looks nice, I even can
change the content, but I cannot sucessfully import the default jar
(uploadig is fine).
I guess you meant XAR.
What version of XE and what error do you get?
Thanks
-Vincent
So, as this is the team of users, probably most of you have fixed this
issue. I can provide more detailed information on request, I wanted to
keep it as short as possible.
Just in case I could offer ssh access. Any ideas?
Best regards
Pierre
