Re: Problem building latest wookie code

Hi there,

Im following the installation steps from the wiki for getting the latest code and building the wookie server with tomcat and mysql. When I build it goes through ok and gives me the "build successful" message at the end. But something seems to be going wrong with the build because there seems to be a few problems: 1) The wookie folder is copied to the tomcat directory and not the tomcat/webapps directory.

Worked OK for me - is this something as simple as an error in the path set in build.properties?

2) The libraries are copied into a local folder inside the "trunk" folder called ${project.weblib.dir}. This seems to be a problem with the ant properties

This is just a temporary holding space for the libs - they get copied over to Tomcat anyway. If you want to you can set a project.weblb.dir property in build.properties for it to somewhere else.

3) I have a widgetdb database and a java/java user but no tables are created by the build. I also tried copying the wookie folder to the webapps dir in tomcat and started it to see if the tables are created on startup but no dice.

No, you're right they don't - see below

Something has obviously gone wrong with the build here, perhaps I have configured wrong. Still its strange that the build still "succeeds".

I just went through the steps again myself:

1. svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wookie/trunk

2. edited build.properties:

# Only one of the following should be set.

#project.using.derby=true
project.using.mysql=true
servletEngine.webapp.dir=/usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.20/webapps/

# In most cases you will not not to change the settings below this line
# Only change them if you know what you are doing.
build.dir=build
ivy.repository.dir=ant

main.class.name=org.apache.wookie.server.Start

3. ant
4. ant deploy-webapp



5. ant clean-db

Sets everything up.

# If you choose derby you need to do no addiitonal configuration, if you choose mySQL Everything works OK apart from the tables are not created. However, running: I'll make sure to add that step to the MySQL/Tomcat instructions on the wiki.
