Re: Anyone know what is happening with JspWiki?
I just installed it, and it does not install cleanly, but I have not yet got
it to work.
I notice that in the README.Debian it says that the directory structure
is:-
/var/lib/jspwiki contains WikiPages and attachments.
/usr/share/java/webapps/JSPWiki contains the JSP pages, Java libraries,
and page templates.
/etc/jspwiki contains all configuration files.
/etc/tomcat6/policy.d/05jspwiki.policy is a symbolic link to
/etc/jspwiki/tomcat.policy
But there is no directory /usr/share/java/webapps, and these files
seem to be in /usr/share/jspwiki. This however is just a docs error
I think, the ContextPath in jspwiki.xml is correct.
However when I try to use JSPWiki, I keep getting a message in the
tomcat catalina.out log file:-
java.lang.IllegalStateException: ContainerBase.addChild: start:
LifecycleException: start: : java.io.IOException: Failed to access resource
/WEB-INF/lib/jabsorb.jar
Looking in the /usr/share/java directory, jabsorb.jar is indeed missing,
so I guess we have a missing dependency on libjabsorb-java. I also notice
that there are links to files from the tomcat6-webapps package, which is
not listed as a dependency and so I did not have loaded. Loading
libjabsorb-java fixed the first problem, but there is no tomcat6-webapps
package, yet the links refer to /usr/share/tomcat6-webapps/. Looking
at the packages.debian.org site, the jar files references (jstl.jar and
standard.jar) only exist in part of netbeans.
