Lenya mastering

Hi Group

Im head-banging with Lenya for almost 3 months now. And trust me I
have move no where.I evaluated Lenya because I wanted a stable CMS to
develop upon. I want to develop a simple system which shows some data
(user's data) out to the user and let it be modified by authorized
person. Something very simple ... indeed , but Im stuck badly , on
following.
1. Lenya is devoid of good documentation.
2. I cant port Lenya on Tomcat 6.0 container , Its difficult to start
from old technologies.

Any .....any pointers on my query?

Thanks
Raj

If you mean didn't turn on, yeah that would be correct. I don't see 
anything about turning off the security manager, I only see stuff about 
turning it on if you want it. I didn't turn it on, if it is on by 
default in 6.0, then I am missing something in my documentation.

I had to configure it to have endorsed dir support.

My notes:

Tomcat 6 doesn't ship with endorsed dir support by default, and the
startup script as configured doesn't do anything about it.

1) mkdir /usr/local/tomcat/endorsed
2) Edit /etc/inid.d/tomcat
    a) JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS=$CATALINA_HOME/endorsed
    b) Add to CATALINA_OPTS: -Djava.endorsed.dirs=$JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS

Now Lenya/Cocoon can used endorsed dirs to override jdk libraries with
their own.


What's in there:
jakarta-bcel-20040329.jar
jakarta-regexp-1.5.jar
xalan-2.7.1.jar
xercesImpl-2.9.1.jar
xml-apis-1.3.04.jar

Hello Richard,

question: is it the only thing you did that you switched off the
security manager?

I saw that there's Tomcat 6.0 when you install NetBeans full version.

Cheers!
Daniel

I've got it running on 6.0, but as it's the only application running on 
the container, I may not be doing everything one normally would for 
security.

Hi Raj,

1. Lenya is devoid of good documentation.

I wouldn't say devoid, but it is a little on the thin side.

However, Lenya is built on cocoon and I think a lot of the basic
principles can be picked up from there.
Cocoon's docs are quite good and also there are some published books.

2. I cant port Lenya on Tomcat 6.0 container , Its difficult to start
from old technologies.

Haven't tried this - but we use Tomcat 5.5 in production - I would
recommend sticking to that.

We develop commercial sites using Lenya / Cocoon and I can say we take
fresher's who are able to pick up the technology quite quickly.

Maybe some of our freshers could post here and help you out ;)

Regards


Vik
