Requirements
Caucho Resin installation
Requirements This
document describes the webEditor installation procedure under
the Caucho Technologies Servlet Engine Resin
webEditor has been tested with the latest stable release of Resin, 1.2. If you successfully install webEditor under another version of Resin, please, make us know.
For generic recommendations, please, read the webEditor generic installation document
Caucho Resin installation First at all, you have to download the webEditor latest release from our web site http://sourceforge.net/projects/webeditor
webEditor now comes with a war (Web Application archive) file, ready to install in any J2EE compatible engine, for example in Resin. Once you download webEditor.war file you should place it under the webapps Tomcat directory, typically in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps. If
Resin is runnig, it will detect the existence of a new war
file, and will uncompress this new file under a new webapp
directory called webEditor. When Resin finish with the decompression, you should go to the directory webapps/webEditor/WEB-INF and move the file called resin-web.xml to web.xml.
In order to set up webEditor properly, you must edit the servlet descriptor file, placed in WEB-INF/web.xml:
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application
2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet-mapping
url-pattern="/servlet/*" servlet-name="invoker"/>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>wEd</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>webEditor.wEd</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>wEd_root</param-name>
<param-value>[$RESIN_HOME]/webapps/webEditor/editor_1</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
</web-app>
|
Then, change $RESIN_HOME for the proper value for your system.
The last step is to change the webEditor main configuration file. You will find this in $RESIN_HOME/webapps/webEditor/editor_1/general.xml:
|
<!-- Sample configuration file for the example editor -->
<general>
<category name="directories">
<!-- General name of the editor-->
<data code="editorName">editor_1</data>
<!-- Web Server primary document directory-->
<!-- Please, change this parameter to your proper value-->
<data code="serverRoot">/usr/local/resin-1.2/webapps</data>
<!-- Name of the Web Server in whitch you want to PUBLISH-->
<!-- note that this is not necesary your edition server -->
<data code="serverName">localhost</data>
<!-- Editor primary directory (Relative to the root directory) -->
<data code="docRoot">webEditor/myNews</data>
<!-- Related images directory (Relative to the root directory) -->
<data code="imgDir">webEditor/myNews/images</data>
<!-- Temporal Directory in whitch to store the uploaded images -->
<data code="tmpDir">/tmp</data>
<!-- Editor data directory (Relative to the root directory) -->
<data code="dataDir">data</data>
<!-- XSL templates directory (relative to the data directory) -->
<data code="tplDir">templates</data>
<!-- File with the list of the xml files taht forms the Home Page -->
<data code="homePage">homePage.xml</data>
</category>
</general> |
There, you should change the variables named serverRoot, docRoot, imgDir and tmpDir for values that match with your system settings. As a general rule, serverRoot must be the webapps directory of Resin.
Don't forget to grant write access to the news directory for your webEditor SO user!!.
Well, that's all. You only have to restart Resin and take a look the webEditor main URL:
http://localhost/webEditor
If everything is ok, you will see this pretty cool page:
