Hi,
Indeed, I created a set of screencasts quite some time ago. You can find links
to them at http://changelos.com/2009/11/08/apache-ace-visuals/ .
Thanks for the reference Angelo. Will try this out and get back if I
run into any issues.
Hi - I followed through Angelo's 'Simple Deployment' video and got up to
the point where I could add the three files (servicebased-host.jar etc)
as 'Artifacts'. The next step in the video shows creating 'Group's and
associating the artifacts with groups. In the current WebUI the 'Group'
column is replaced with 'Feature'. I was hoping that this was just a
name change - however, although I could create 'Feature's, the drag and
drop which should associate Artifacts with Features does not work for
me. Any suggestions on how to figure out what is not working would be
welcome :-)

Thanks,

Hi Zoe,
glad to see you + aries people here on ace. ;)
The log message "Highest remote: null / Highest local: null" was also
a little confusing to me, but it just says, that there is nothing to
be deployed on the managementagent (old speak: gateway) yet.
About: "The WebUI is there but looks a little odd"
Its a rush GWT port of a commercial UI that has not been open sourced
by luminis. Currently, Marcel is doing a Vaadlin Version instead -
heard its much more straightforward to develop such a ui than raw GWT.
So, better we'll wait for him here. But i agree the current webUI is
not the best thing since sliced bread.
But it works, i believe there was a screencast on how to use it by
Angelo ? Not sure. If not we should make one. Otherwise its quite hard
to get started.
As a quick hint: you need to add bundles the repository by copying
them to the upload folder (not sure, its called repository i guess in
the server folder). They should appear on the left column in the ui.
Also, when running one or more gateways, they should appear in the UI, too.
Now you can bring the "two" together by wiring them: create a group,
drag the artifact (left) on the group, and so on. So its drag an drop
based. Coloring indicate "wired" pieces.
Bottomline:
Your builds are fine, just the UI needs assistance and/or a replacement.

Hi Devs,
As I understand the two main tutorials available on the website
(Getting started with file based server, Getting started with Web UI
server) deal with the legacy module in the Ace trunk. So I guess I
have to build the legacy module using Ant to follow these articles. Am
I correct? Are there any similar documents for the Maven based build?
Thanks
I have exactly the same problem. I followed the build instructions for the
maven build, got the server running and the gateway (albeit with a
distracting info message every second(?) "Highest remote: null / Highest
local: null") - did not get any further than this so far. The WebUI is there
but looks a little odd - I'd like to get the command line instructions
working, any pointers would be much appreciated.
