need help to compile roller

[AJ Chen <ca...@gmail.com>]

I'm having hard time to get started with roller development.  I had tried it
two months ago and again yesterday. Following the online document, build
always failed for both release 2.1 and source code from subversion.  I'll
appreciate it if someone can point the right direction for me. I'd like to
get the latest stable source code from release or subversion and
instructions that really work.

Thanks,
AJ

I've found that it's often easier to put a roller.xml in
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost.  Point it at your build/roller
directory and everything should work.  If it doesn't, check
$CATALINA_HOME/logs/roller.log.

<Context path="" docBase="c:/source/roller_2.2/build/roller"
debug="99" reloadable="false"
    antiJARLocking="true" antiResourceLocking="false" allowLinking="true">

    <Resource name="jdbc/rollerdb" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
              maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="100"
              driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
              username="root" password=""
              url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/roller"/>

    <Resource name="mail/Session" auth="Container" type="javax.mail.Session"
              mail.smtp.host="localhost" />
</Context>

Hope this helps,

Matt

Matt, thanks.  This simple step works.

Now, I have another problem when following the installation guide (for
2.3-incubating) to install roller.  I copied the roller directory from build
directory to {tomcat}\webapps.  Created context configuration file named
roller.xml and placed it in the Tomcat conf/Catalina/localhost directory.
Started tomcat 5.5 on windows XP, but  Tomcat failed to start roller. Here
is the error message:

INFO: Missing application web.xml, using defaults only
StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/roller]
May 9, 2006 1:00:14 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error listenerStart

I checked that there was web.xml in roller\WEB-INF. Any idea what might
cause the problem?

Best,
AJ

In my experience, Roller is pretty easy to build.  Just checkout from
Subversion and run "ant all".

download roller-tools-2.0-incubating.tar.tar and unzip it to rolloer source
directory,in command line type "build all" to run the build.bat.
