forumdemo example can't find list.vm
Good day all,
Trying to get the forum demo to work (under Windows 98). Copied forumdemo
directory from velocity\examples into tomcat\webapps, started tomcat, index
page OK but attempting to post or list gives this kind of stuff in the web
page:
java.lang.Exception: Cannot find the template!
java.lang.Exception: Cannot find the template! at

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484)
and (perhaps more helpfully) the tomcat console has
Error handling the request:
org.apache.velocity.exception.ResourceNotFoundException:
Unable to find resource 'list.vm'
I've tried copying list.vm to the webapps\forumdemo directory (no joy), then
tried copying the whole template directory to webapps\forumdemo\WEB-INF. No
luck there either.
Does anyone have an idea what's going on?
Cheers

That's all right - let us know if it works - I changed forumdemo to be
autoconfiguring on a 2.2 or better servlet runner...

Don't start. In hockey, there is a 'third man in' rule that gets you an

Yeah, you're absolutely right, I'm running 1.0.1. I noticed there was a 1.1
but I was too lazy to download it...doing that now. Sorry.
Cheers big ears

Where is this from?
Is this from velocity 1.0.1 distribution, or the 1.1-rc1 ?
It's important because the older was sensitve to where tomcat was
started...

If you download the file that I pointed at, you will see it is a copy of
Tomcat, Velocity and Forumdemo already configured and setup. I don't see how
this is any different than what you were looking for already.

Thanks Jon, but I was trying to get the demo running on my PC to make sure
I've got all the Tomcat/ Velocity bits working properly together. Geir
sussed that I was using 1.0.1 and suggested downloading 1.1 - which now
works fine. Even though I ignored the warning while building it to set PATH
in Velocity.property.
