Re: Installing on Windows 7

Tue, 15 Oct 2019 21:11:02 -0700 

Thanks Paul,
I have nothing against Vagrant, as I prefer Java over Ruby, when I really need a Linux box I simply use Oracle VM VirtualBox :) I have even a XP VM I need sometimes for an old product I have. 

I also remember when, not aware of VMs on Windows I used a dual-boot[2]. That 
was a long time ago...


Developing on Windows is OK, it's Java after all :). But you are right about deploying on a *nix system. I had to take over a running OFBiz 
production  on a Windows server, sincerely it was a mess!

I’d recommend looking into something like vagrant to spin up a quick dev box to 
play in.

https://app.vagrantup.com/ubuntu/boxes/xenial64 
<https://app.vagrantup.com/ubuntu/boxes/xenial64>

Once you get that installed getting a linux box is super-duper easy:

vagrant init ubuntu/xenial64
vagrant up

Longer-term using Docker is a little more scalable but requires a bit more 
setup up front and dealing with volumes is a bit of a learning curve.

Either way getting used to a linux workflow is probably worth it since if you 
deploy chances are you’ll want to do it in a linux-ecosystem.

Hi Jacques,

Happy Tuesday...

I have spent the last 2 days trying to get ofbiz running on Windows 10 and
finally found the problem.  If you user login name has a space, it will not
work.(ie Bill Harder versus BillHarder)  Work around is set up a TempUser
account and give it a try.  That worked for me.  Not a good long term
solution.  I'm thinking an AWS server running linux might be better.

Since this is my first post to the ofbiz / apache group if I do something
wrong here please let me know.  Thanks.

Hi Jacques.

Still doesn't work. Due to other considerations I'm not in a position to
re-install Windows 7 on this particular machine.

Thank for all your help and patience.

Hi Ethan,

OK, we will make it simpler.

Just open


https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/branches/release16.11/gradle/init-gradle-wrapper.ps1


And copy it (replace all text) in your own init-gradle-wrapper.ps1. Then
run "c:\Ofbiz>init-gradle-wrapper"

I have tested the same on my machine and it works as expected.

If it does not work on yours you have a problem with your Windows 7
installation and I can't do much about it.

I'd then recommend to make a new Windows installation. I know it's not
an easy choice...

Should I delete everything and redownload and reinstall?

Yes, the install will drop them in

Hi Jacques.

What about the empty folder? Or will the install drop them in?

These should be 4 different lines:

Please check in your editor.

Also check the content of C:\Ofbiz\gradle\wrapper you should see
2 files: gradle-wrapper.jar and gradle-wrapper.properties

Ok, that seemed to work (I think)

Next I tried gradlew cleanAll loadDefault and got:

C:\Users\Caleb>Cd C:\Ofbiz

C:\Ofbiz>init-gradle-wrapper

C:\Ofbiz>gradlew cleanAll loadDefault
'gradlew' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Ofbiz>

Now what am I doing wrong?

Looked at init-gradle-wrapper.ps1 and there is no standalone
wget.

wget -outf gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.jar


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradle-wrapper.jar

wget -outf gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradle-wrapper.properties

wget -outf gradlew.bat


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradlew.bat

Here they are at the start of each line just replace with

Invoke-WebRequest -outf gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.jar


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradle-wrapper.jar

Invoke-WebRequest -outf
gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradle-wrapper.properties

Invoke-WebRequest -outf gradlew.bat


http://dl.bintray.com/apacheofbiz/GradleWrapper/v2.13/gradlew.bat
