Jackrabbit 2.0
I'm trying to run the jackrabbit-webapp application. I've reviewed
the mailing list for related threads. A couple of threads discuss
this topic but do not resolve it, and I can find no documentation.
I've explicitly documented my failed attempts. Please insert helpful
information where ever you can.
1) I'm running the web app by dropping the WAR file into the webapps
directory of my container, Jetty.
2) There is NO existing configuration files, no bootstrap.properites
and no jackrabbit home, nothing
3) I get the somewhat expected complaint in the logs that the
repository couldn't be inititialized
9.01.2010 17:01:55 *ERROR* RepositoryStartupServlet: Repository
startup configuration is not valid but a bootstrap config is
specified. (RepositoryStartupServlet.java, line 366)
9.01.2010 17:01:55 *ERROR* RepositoryStartupServlet: Either create the
jackrabbit/bootstrap.properties file or
(RepositoryStartupServlet.java, line 367)
9.01.2010 17:01:55 *ERROR* RepositoryStartupServlet: use the
'/config/index.jsp' for easy configuration.
(RepositoryStartupServlet.java, line 368)
9.01.2010 17:01:55 *ERROR* RepositoryStartupServlet:
RepositoryStartupServlet initializing failed:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Repository startup configuration is
not valid. (RepositoryStartupServlet.java, line 245)
javax.servlet.ServletException: Repository startup configuration is not valid.
4) Note, a jackrabbit folder was actually created at this point. It's
empty except for a single directory in it, tmp. tmp is also empty.
5) I try to follow the instructions from this log statement -- but
there is NO such thing as /config/index.jsp
6) If I hit the webapp root, I get the "Content Repository Setup" page
-- is this the "wizard" referenced by the javadoc for the
RepositoryStartupServlet?
7) I choose Create a new repository, it complains that the jackrabbit
directory already exists ( see #4 above )
8) If i manually delete that directory and hit the create a new
repository again, it kind of works. The repository directories seem
to have been created with complete info.
9) But I can't use the remote webdav servlet. If I hit the URL, like
localhost:8080/myapp/server, I get an RMI error of all things
<D:error>
<dcr:exception>
<dcr:class>
org.apache.jackrabbit.rmi.client.RemoteRepositoryException
</dcr:class>
<dcr:message>
java.rmi.RemoteException: No target found:
//localhost:1099/jackrabbit.repository; nested exception is:
java.rmi.NotBoundException: jackrabbit.repository
</dcr:message>
10) I suppose this is because the init process didn't go down as exptected.
