Couple of questions
Morning folks,
I now have what appears to be a working Wookie installation. I've had a good poot about the various arena's of information you
have regarding Wookie including the embryonic
http://incubator.apache.org/wookie/index.html
the download and install guide, the project status page, and the Admin guide and so on. I realise things are incubating and just
getting off the floor, but one thing I really missed on getting a working install was a sample widget in my shiny Admin panel to
try. Can't seem to find any in the docs - are there any around? I know I can follow the guide to building my own, but I think a
lot of administrators of sites, CMS and VLE's and so on like to be sure that a sub-system is working right after an install before
they commit to getting local effort involved in coding stuff up.
Is there a gallery somewhere we can get sample Widgets?
best wishes

For Steve and anyone else who is seeing this problem - I just fixed the ivy settings to get rid of this jar caching issue; do an "svn up" and off you go...

Hi Steve,
1. First, the error you're seeing below is caused by the local wookieW3CParser.jar being an outdated copy that has been cached on your system - the GadgetParser class calls the current API not the old one. So, you need to clean out your jar cache as the parser jar has been updated since you first installed. You can either run "ant clean", then rebuild (you can make a nice hot beverage of your choice while your computer downloads all the jars it needs again). Or you can manually delete the wookieW3CParser from .ant/cache and .m2/repository, if you don't mind digging about a bit and some trial-and-error. (Yes, we will fix this soon!)
2. Second, I think you could have the same issue as Fernando, with Tomcat not able to write to webapps/wookie/wservices preventing any widgets deploying. I've added a FAQ entry on this (its at the bottom of the FAQ page[1]).
3. If it still doesn't work drop me an email and I'll arrange to pop over and give it a poke seeing as we're both in Manchester ;-)

Howdy Ross,
alas, followed everything on
http://incubator.apache.org/wookie/downloading-and-installing-wookie.html#DownloadingandInstallingWookie-RunningWookiewithTomcatandMySQL
to the letter (have noticed you have updated the information regarding dealing with the security issues in Tomcat), but not a
single widget is deployed at all, the deploy directory is empty. My attempts at deploying by hand (dropping the wgt into the
directory) similarly fail to generate any Widgets. Still getting a security error even after deploying the 2.2.1 IMPL jar.
Thinking things might have changed with the recent work you have done on the SVN, I plodded through the install, now I get a fail
in ant deploy-webapp with the following
pre-compile-core:
[echo] Compiling files in /root/trunk/src
[echo] Build directory is /root/trunk/build/classes

Getting kind of lost with the project at the moment. Any ideas?

Follow the instructions on the download & install to get a local
"stnadalone" instance running and you are pre-populated with a whole
bunch of widgets. From the widget gallery page click the demo link on a
widget to see it working (it even simulates a multiuser environemnt for you)
