Hi Charles,

Thanks for your offer, the current group of developers involved with Backstage is definitely short on utilizing Windows machines to help move things along in that environment. Unfortunately, it sounds like what we really need is a Windows-based developer to be part of the picture, at least for the batch files.

Hello,

I read differents topics speaking about the same problem : Build the
backstage, but I don't find any answer to my case. So here is my problem:

I built the backstage in a Linux environnement and it work very well.
Congratulation to the team! But now I need to build it under Windows...for
my work...

I'm trying to build the Backstage under windows so I followed the wiki (
https://github.com/zepheira/backstage/wiki/Building-backstage).

The step "Get the source" is ok but for one think: the butterfly source
code does not contain "butterfly.bat" like explained in the following topic:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/simile-widgets/EyHhhOGZyzQ
I found a butterfly.bat file

It probably doesn't work with the latest Butterfly. Someone basically needs to adapt the shell script

https://code.google.com/p/simile-butterfly/source/browse/trunk/butterfly

to Windows.  The Google Refine refine.bat might be of assistance

https://code.google.com/p/google-refine/source/browse/trunk/refine.bat

The step "Build" look good... I have no error returned.

To know if the backstage was well deployed I found a tips in the following
topic:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/simile-widgets/backstage/simile-widgets/0LqCmHofxzM/4LLu0noWW5gJ
But when I enter http://localhost:8181/backstage/data/disk in my browser,
the 404 error is returned.

When I launch "backstage.bat" there is some path problem.
The paths mentionned point at:
- log4j.properties
- butterfly.properties
- modules
- butterfly
and modules.properties

It's probable that file's out of date, too.

After that, I tried to launch butterfly alone and here again I have a path
problem: "e3src\butterfly\src\main\webapp does not exist".

I'm a bit lost and I don't know if my problem come from backstage or
butterfly.
I don't find help for butterfly so I'm pretty lost with that stuff.

I'm afraid Butterfly doesn't have much documentation. Ideally you shouldn't have to know anything about it to deploy Backstage.

Here Ted seems have to been able to build the Backstage (Linux/Windows??).
Is there a documentation about it?

Yes, if anybody's managed to do well with Backstage on Windows, it would be good to hear from you how you managed.

If not, I'm ready to write a documentation about the build under Windows
but I really need help to understand where is the problem.

Best regards,

Charles
