First off, let me say that Turbine is very cool and I'm glad that I finally
have a 'break' at work where I can delve more deeply into it and hopefully
contribute if possible.
Second, I was able to get the initial splash screen using Tomcat and Turbine
on Solaris 2.6. The process was quite simple which I think is great!
Here is a quick blast of what I did,
1) Put all necessary Turbine jars(Turbine, ECS, JNDI, and Village) in
$TOMCAT_HOME/lib.
2) Add the path to the jars to the other Tomcat classes in
$TOMCAT_HOME/tomcat.sh
3) Put the TurbineResources.properties file into $TOMCAT_HOME/etc.
4) Add the following xml to $TOMCAT_HOME/webpages/WEB_INF/web.xml between
the <web-app> element.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Turbine</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>Turbine</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>properties</param-name>
<param-value>/path/to/tomcat/etc/TurbineResources.properties</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
5) Restarted Tomcat
6) Tested it at http://mydomain.com/servlet/Turbine
Nice and easy!
After all of this, I now have a question. The current architecture that I'm
working with has user information in XML files as opposed to a database and
authentication against a server instead of a database. I realize that the
out-of-the-box Turbine does not support this but I was wondering if anyone
had any suggestions as to where to start looking to modify the necessary
code in order to work with this architecture.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
