New subject: [xwiki-users] installation problems

13 Mar 2008

Thanks Ricardo,

My server's 8080 is behind a firewall, but I can see it and have no problem
running other JSP / servlets.

thanks for reminding me about hibernate.cfg.xml
I also realized that I hadn't installed a MySql driver in WB-INF.
However, even though I fixed these two issues, I'm still getting a blank
page.

Also, I wasn't sure with settings to use in hibernate:

<!-- settings commented out in original file -->

    <property name="connection.url
">jdbc:mysql://localhost/xwiki?useServerPrepStmts=false&amp;sessionVariables=sql_mode=''</property>
    <property name="connection.username">xwiki</property>
    <property name="connection.password">xwiki</property>
    <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
</property>
    <property
name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
    <property name="connection.provider_class">
com.xpn.xwiki.store.DBCPConnectionProvider</property>
    <property name="connection.pool_size">2</property>
    <property name="statement_cache.size">2</property>
    <mapping resource="xwiki.hbm.xml"/>
    <mapping resource="feeds.hbm.xml"/>

<!-- instructions from
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMySQL -->

    <property
name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/xwiki</property>
    <property name="connection.username">xwiki</property>
    <property name="connection.password">xwiki</property>
    <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
</property>
    <property
name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>

 Hi, Yishay,

  Hi all,

 I'm trying to install xwiki 1.3 on a Mac XSERVE Leopard (osx 1.5)
 server, and I'm not getting very far.

 I downloaded the war, opened http://localhost:8080/manager/html, and
 deployed.
 My manager shows XWiki up and running.
 I click http://localhost:8080/xwiki and get redirected to
 http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome
 and then I get a blank page.
 same for http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences 
 Just to be sure, have you edited your hibernate.cfg.xml? It is a bit
 strange that you get a blank page instead of an error, but...

 Another doubt, does XServe Leopard has a firewall? Is port 8080
 accessible?

 My 2 c.,

 Ricardo
