Using the Web Application Demo
Hello folks,
I'm really in a bad spot... I have to make a reccomendation for a back-end
technology and JackRabbit looks like the right thing to use.
The problem is that I can't do a demo. I deploy the
jackrabbit-webapp-1.3.3.war to my web server (WebLogic), create the
repository without bothering to remember the name, and then...
I can't do nothing. I have the basic screen telling me my options, but they
are not helpful. After 10 minutes of guessing, I figure out the
username/password for the web-based view.
There is no doc on the website or in the WAR that gives any indication.
I can't even use JCR Explorer because the JNDI name to lookup is not
displayed anywhere, I am trying to RMI using JCR Controller, but that
doesn't work either (could not connect to the default port). I try to go
through Windows' WEBDAV feature and it tells me that its invalid.
I've just spent 2 hours of cluelessness on this and I'm sure you can
understand my frustration.
Maybe its obvious to an experienced Web Developer, but you can say that I'm
the representative end-user in this case here...
If I can't find a way to make this work I won't be able to reccomend using
this technology. Is there any brainless HOWTO out there that Google didn't
pick up?

Although having said that, in tomcats std out log there is information
about the rmi and jndi configuration.
Here is what i see for the rmi config..
rmiName: jackrabbit.repository
rmiUri //localhost:1099/jackrabbit.repository
rmiPort 1099
rmiHost localhost

Hi,
Im not an expert, but it seems that the webapp provides a JCR server
via the WebDAV protocol, so you will need a WebDAV client to access
it.
I can't see that It provides anyother access method.
