Re: Request for help in getting Jetspeed-2 running on Windows:Part 2

[Another new user on Windows chiming in...]  I also need help getting 
started with the binary distribution.  I downloaded and unzipped 
jetspeed-2.0-M1.zip.  Since there was no .war file, I copied and pasted 
the contents of the 'webapps' directory (the jetspeed subdirectory and the 
jetspeed.xml file) into Tomcat's webapps directory and started Tomcat.
Thanks to Ray Clark for pointing out this file:
http://www.apache.org/dist/portals/jetspeed-2/JETSPEED-2.0-M1-README.txt
Who knew that the entire contents of that .zip file were supposed to overlay 
Tomcat?!

I added a page to the Wiki.  It says pretty much the same thing as the 
README file, but should be easier to find.

Request for help in getting Jetspeed-2 running on Windows:Part 2

2005-03-11 Thread cknell
Thanks. I've modified my build.properties according to your suggestion.

I'm now at Step 5 on 
http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/getting-started.html;.

The instructions are:

* 1. If you are using the Hypersonic SQL database, make sure you have 
terminated the test HSQLserver. Then in the same terminal, start the production 
Hypersonic database by typing

  maven start.production.server

* 2. (in seperate window/terminal session)

  cd ${jetspeed-2-home}

* 3. maven quickStart

  This will recreate the DB to deploy into. WARNING This will drop all the 
tables and data in the production database.

* 4. Start up Tomcat. With a browser, go to:

  http://localhost:8080/jetspeed


Bullet 1 is apparently instructing me to run a script called 
start.production.server with Maven. I've searched and cannot find a file by 
that name. I have started the HSQL database using the batch file in the 
%TOMCAT_HOME%/jetspeed-database directory.

There is no batch file for stopping the database and the contents of the batch 
file to start it gives no clue as to how it is accomplished gracefully. If 
someone knows how and will tell me, I promise to scour the HSQL site at 
SourceForge.net later. Scout's honor.

O.K., the database is now started.

Bullet 2 instructs me to change to a directory via a variable I don't have and 
whose value is a mystery as well.

Bullet 3 give me a hint on Bullet 2. If I find a directory with a script called 
quickStart I may just be in the right place. Alas, there is no quickStart 
anywhere on my disk for Maven to run.

Bullet 4 has me start Tomcat and navigate to a URL. When I do this I get what 
is for me, an undecipherable stack trace. Tomcat is working, by the way, so the 
problem must be further up.

Has anyone got some help for me? Thanks

I think you might be able to ignore this property entry as it is only used
when building from source, and not even be used there anymore.

start.production.server, quickStart are all targets within the
maven.xml not separated script files. For changing the directory, all
it means is for you to change directory to whereever you have
jetspeed-2 base.

I noticed you talk about an installation package in your previous emails.
Are you building from source or from the binary distribution?

If you are using the bin dist, then you do not have to follow the
getting-started page.

I downloaded jetspeed-2.0-M1.zip and extracted the files to the Tomcat 
directory. The directories this created appear to have complied code (the files 
extensions are .class, not .java).

As a sanity check I have also downloaded (but not expanded) 
jetspeed-2.0-M1-src.zip and examined it. I can see .class files and 
multiple maven.xml files in the archive, and there are no maven.xml files 
in my file system.

When you say the source directory for jetspeed, usually jakarta-jetspeed-2, 
are you saying that if I expanded the source files to my file system and placed 
them in a directory called jakarta-jetspeed-2 then that would be what the 
instructions mean when they say ${jetspeed-2-home}?

All right. I've downloaded and deployed the Jetspeed-2 binaries (I'm pretty 
sure), started Tomcat, and I've navigated to http://localhost:8080/jetspeed;. 

What I get is a stack trace. The exception part of the page is below. I don't 
know how to interpret it beyond the fact that jetspeed didn't start. Can anyone 
point me in the right direction?

Thanks again.
