main roller theme issue:roller-custom.properties

Trying to get main Roller pages to use 'blue' theme or any other theme so that I may create a new one.

I have created a roller-custom.properties file as instructed in the config doc.  My changes to the upload dir have been picked up, but other values have not:

INFO  2006-01-19 09:57:54,427 RollerConfig:  - successfully loaded default properties.
INFO  2006-01-19 09:57:54,449 RollerConfig:  - successfully loaded custom properties file from classpath 
INFO  2006-01-19 09:57:54,453 RollerConfig:  - no custom properties file specified via jvm option

INFO  2006-01-19 09:58:05,871 IndexManagerImpl:  - index dir: /export/home/roller_data/search-index 


It did not change the editor.theme values, nor the blogroll values that I customized.  Here is what I entered in the roller-custom.properties file:

# editor theme to be used (corresponds to directory name under /theme)
editor.theme=blue

# list of links to include in root bookmark folder of each new blog
# format is like so: linktitle2|linkurl2,linktitle2|linkurl2,linktitle3|linkurl3
newuser.blogroll=\
Home|/main.do\
Company|/page/main\
Kovacs|/page/kovacs\
Naveen|/page/TestNaveen

Using Roller 2.0, Tomcat 5.0.28, MySQL 5.0, Solaris 9.

Thanx forr your help.

it definitely should have found the file there, so check the debugging output to see what happened.

another possible reason why you didn't see your theme change is because tomcat persisted your session between server restarts.  i have seen this happen to me in the past as well.  you either need to remove your session cookie or logout of roller to make sure your session is invalidated.

Hi,

After explicitly adding the custom properties path to my catalina.sh, my theme changes were picked up:

-Droller.custom.config="/path/to/roller-custom.properties" 
 
I originally just tried to put the custom props file in the roller/WEB-INF/classes directory, and that did not seem to work.

I will try the debug option to figure out my blogroll issue though.

Thanks for your help.

In the log4j.properties file in WEB-INF/classes, try adding a line setting 

org.roller.config.RollerConfig=DEBUG

It should report on each property value in the RollerConfig after the 
loading and expansion logic is complete.  The output will appear in the 
roller.log.
