Re: [xwiki-users] debian installer

Hi Volker, and sorry for the delay. @Vincent : The documentation is in the writting process. I hope I'll have some time to work on it. Ok, so to answer the questions, the debian package is installing XWiki package in a common way, putting the configuration files (+ classes, fonts, etc...) in /etc/xwiki/, and the other files in /usr/lib/xwiki/. If you take for example the xwiki-tomcat-mysql package, it depends on (which mean they will be installed): - tomcat6. You'll find the configuration files in /etc/tomcat6/. You can configure the process to run in /etc/default/tomcat6 file. a tomcat6 user will be created. - mysql5.x . It will create a "xwiki" database, granting the "xwiki" user to use it. You can configure the credentials of database user for xwiki in /etc/dbconfig-common/xwiki.com, if you choose to use dbconfig during the installation. - And of course, java. The script to restart tomcat (and of course xwiki) will be /etc/init.d/tomcat6. To change the port, you have to check /etc/tomcat6/server.xml. The file is well documented. Finally, to check the xwiki/tomcat logs, the file you need is /var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out. To put a Apache in a reverse proxy mode, you have to do it manually. It's easy to let him work together. What you have to do is to take a look to ajp module ("ProxyPass ajp://yourserver/xwiki"). Perhaps we'll add in the future an Apache installation package to configure it automatically. We encourage you to test the packages and the report the errors you may meet, especially during the tomcat's start, through the logs.
