AW: AW: moving to different hardware
Hi, Betreff: AW: AW: moving to different hardware Gesendet: Do, 16. Dez 2010 Von: Szabo, Patrick (LNG-VIE)patrick.sz...@lexisnexis.at Hi, Today was the day. We copied all the files (install folder and project folder) und set the variables. Unfortunately it's not working. We did the following: We copied apache-forrest and workflow-dok (that's our project) to C:\forrest\. We set the Variables to: FORREST_HOME = C:\forrest\apache-forrest\ Path = ...;%FORREST_HOME%\bin We did a restart and the variables are set properly. If we enter 'forrest run' it says that it does not recognize forrest as a command. That seems to be a PATH setting issue and has nothing to do with forrest itself. We've also tried to run the forrest.bat directly with 'forrest.bat run'. It starts running but the build fails with an error that it can't find a documentation folder in C:\forrest\apache-forrest\. That's weird because our project-folder is C:\forrest\workflow-dok anyway. What are we doing wrong ?! cd to your project-folder (the folder taht contains the forrest.properties file) and run forrest again That should do the trick. BR Andreas Lehmkühler

Thanks you for your really fast response. I've also noticed that it says that JAVA_HOME is not set but it is :-( Here is what those echos are giving me. Echo %JAVA_HOME%: C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.6.0_03\bin Echo %FORREST_HOME%: C:\forrest\apache-forrest Echo %PATH%: C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;%FORREST_HOME%\bin Seems right to me...

Hi Patrick, Assuming you have Java installed on the new machine, simply copying everything (Forrest + Your Project) should work just fine. Good luck! Patrick, the configuration should not have any system-specific settings, so it should be okay. I was wondering about the cache. I expect that it too should be portable. If you do see issues then do 'forrest clean' in each of your projects. -David

Okay, it already looks a little bit better - i can do 'forrest run now' If i do so he sill warns me that JAVA_HOME isn't set and the build fails with: Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap Could not create the Java virtual machine.
