I was able to successfully build the jboss war file from the source. It runs on JBoss 6.1.0.Final with the Mysql mysql-connector-java-5.1.16-bin.jar jdbc driver. Funny thing is that when I create a datasource, it doesn't put the user-name and password in the config file. I have to go open the RollerDS-ds.xml manually and add those attributes. Maybe that is why jboss ditched that user interface?
I was able to create a blog. But, I can't upload an image to it. Do you have to enable something to upload an image to the blog entry? I think if you are going to reference the jboss war file in the installation guide, that you ought to put it on the download site. I am sure there will be +1 other interested users. I am not too entheused about the Spring and Struts dependencies. I have no knowledge of struts and it just doesn't seem to be the thing to invest time into these days. As for dependency injection, I am sure Spring was well suited at the time it was chosen. It just seems that Java EE now provides what Spring did. But, I am not that seasoned of a developer. brian On Mon, Aug 27, 2012 at 12:10:44AM -0400, David Johnson wrote: > We never got *any* feedback at all on the Roller 5 release for JBoss, so we > never made the JBoss release file available and the same goes for 5.0.1.
