Does forumdemo works with jBoss ?

[Anders Lindb�ck <ve...@malarnet.com>]

I'm testing velocity with jBoss and wanted to try and get the forumdemo to work.

I'm using the velocity1.3rc1  and jboss 3.0.0 beta. 

First I had problem with the velocity jar file containing an extra "."
which did not work - but found the answers in the mailinglist archive
and renamed velocitys jar file to exclude the extra "."

When building the forumdemo it says that I should change PATH in Velocity.properties file

However I have no Velocity.properties but there exist a file called volocity.properties
so I suspect the documentations has the wrong file name( names are case sensitive)
and "V" is not the same as "v")

But there exist no PATH variable in that file - or does it ?


Forumdemo first page comes up. However when I do anything involving the forumdemo 
servlet it fail with the following error messages in JBoss:


22:16:44,004 INFO  [EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] StandardWrapper[/forumdemo:org.apache.catalina.INVOKER.forum]: Marking servlet org.apache.catalina.INVOKER.forum as unavailable

To me it seams like the it can't find the servlet and that there is something wrong
in the configurations files for the forumdemo.
web.xml for forumdemo ontains the follow:
...
   <servlet-name>forum</servlet-name>
     <servlet-class>org.apache.velocity.demo.ControllerServlet</servlet-class>
      <init-param>
        <param-name>properties</param-name>
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/conf/velocity.properties</param-value>
      </init-param>
...

So why does it search for forum and not org.apache.velocity.demo.ControllerServlet  ?

Anyone got it to work ?
