Hello,
I am very frustrated in setting up a a very simple Turbine application using
M.E.T.A (Maven Environment for Turbine Applications).
Basically I follow the below steps:
Install M.E.T.A following this link:
http://turbine.apache.org/meta/installation.html
Note that I installed Maven 1.0 as it says Maven 2 is not currently supported.
Then I installed the M.E.T.A plugin:
maven -DartifactId=maven-turbine-plugin -DgroupId=turbine -Dversion=1.3
plugin:download
I installed application server Tomcat 6.0
Integrate M.E.T.A to Tomcat as described in this link:
http://turbine.apache.org/meta/getting_started.html
maven.appserver.home = C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 6.0
Got the Hello World working. So far so good.
The problem comes when I tried to move further:
http://wiki.apache.org/turbine/Turbine2/Tutorial/SimpleSample1
No matter what I tried, I am not able get the "Adding a java filled screen"
part working. I couldn't get the $content_field variable resolved correctly.
I searched online and tried all possibilities, but no vain. I think the problem
is the plugin is at version 1.3 and the Turbine is at version 2.3; that's why
the Java class can not be loaded.
Please shed a light on how to set up this very simple application. I appreciate
anyone could provide a step by step guide how to set up a Turbine application
to work in Tomcat.
Best regards,
- Anna
