Hello
I am getting increaingly frustrated and disappointed.
Frustrated that after two days I am still struggling to get a simple
set-up working
Disappointed because after trialing a number of php based CMS products,
I thought Magnolia was the solution I was looking for.
I am not new to Java, servlets, jsp, etc but every step is a time
consuming leap into the dark which usually fails followed by a further
time consuming trawl through list postings and Wiki contents that span
several versions of Magnolia.
I initially set up a structure in the author environment using version
1
and was very impressed, I then tried to activate this to the public
environment without success as the repository appeared corrupt. At this
point Boris Kraft's solution was to move to version 2. When I next had
the opportunity to progress this project 2.1rc1 was available and
judging by the other comments on the list, there would be potential
problems migrating from 2.0 to 2.1 so I restarted with 2.1.
Based on my initial tests, I have persuaded a client that Magnolia
should be the basis of a documentation project. I now have two weeks to
prepare a demonstration to prove my point. At this rate it is not going
to happen which will be a great shame.
Am I wasting my time with 2.1? Should I go to 2.0.1 with two separate
instances of tomcat running? I am not trying to do anything
revolutionary, just set up 4 users each of whom can only see their part
of the content.

Hi Mike,
please let us know what you try to do and we'll see what we can do
about it. 2.1 RC1 should be fine, we are using it for magnolia.info
amongst others, and I do have restricted user accounts set up that
work.
Thanks
Boris
