I'm putting together a tomcat (4.0 latest beta), turbine (2.1) and velocity (whatever ships with the tdk) HelloWorld application and I've run into a problem and since I'm a little new to Turbine/Velocity I was wondering if you guys could smack me upside the head and point out my silly little error. :-) So a little background Downloaded and extracted the tdk Downloaded and extracted tomcat 4.0 (latest beta) creates the following directories/files in the tomcat webapps directory I'm calling the app userman for now ... just ignore that ... All of the *jar files are from the tdk (2.1) userman/WEB-INF/lib/turbine-2.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/velocity-1.2-dev.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/xmlrpc.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/ecs-1.4.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/activation-1.0.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/hsql.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/httpunit.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/idb.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/jakarta-regexp-1.3-dev.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/jdbc2_0-stdext.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/jdbc-se2.0.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/jndi-1.2.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/jta1.0.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/junit-3.2.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-1.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/mail-1.2.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/mm.mysql-2.0.4.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/oro.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/postgresql.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/sapdbc.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/village-1.5.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/xalan-1.2.1.jar userman/WEB-INF/lib/xerces-1.3.0.jar My Index.java class ... Copied from the HelloWorld example at http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/howto/velocity-site-howto.html but the class name was changed to Index instead of HelloWorld. I think this is the right way .... The class file is compiled with: javac -classpath ../lib/velocity-1.2-dev.jar:../lib/turbine-2.1.jar Index.java userman/WEB-INF/classes userman/WEB-INF/classes/Index.java userman/WEB-INF/classes/Index.class web.xml copied from tdk ... checked for differences and modified approp. userman/WEB-INF/web.xml also copied from the tdk. changes the screen/layout paths to reflect the applications directory structure...See below userman/WEB-INF/conf/TurbineResources.properties Templates ... Index.vm just says <p> $hello </p> Default.vm just says: $screen_placeholder GlobalMacros.vm is copied from the tdk ... userman/templates/screens userman/templates/screens/Index.vm userman/templates/layouts/Default.vm userman/templates/navigations userman/templates/GlobalMacros.vm The log files ... userman/logs/turbine.log userman/logs/velocity.log Okay ... So when I pull up the url: http://localhost:8080/userman/servlet/userman I get ... $hello So I looked in my logs and this is what I get... velocity.log Fri Jul 13 16:15:23 EDT 2001 AvalonLogSystem initialized using logfile /home/edwardam/java/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b5/webapps/userman/logs/velocity.log Fri Jul 13 16:15:23 EDT 2001 [info] [info] Default Properties File: org/apache/velocity/runtime/defaults/velocity.properties Fri Jul 13 16:15:23 EDT 2001 [info] Resource Loader Instantiated: org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.FileResourceLoader Fri Jul 13 16:15:23 EDT 2001 [info] FileResourceLoader : initialization starting.
