I'm trying to build my first wiki with JSPWiki 2.6.2. I wonder whether
anyone might want to clarify a few points.
1) The README that came with the .zip file says simply to put
JSPWiki.war into $CATALINA_HOME/webapps. However, the more detailed
explanation at
http://doc.jspwiki.org/2.4/wiki/InstallingJSPWikiStepByStep
says that you can put JSPWiki.war "anywhere, EXCEPT in the webapps
folder of your Tomcat home". Which is correct? Or better?
2) If I put JSPWiki.war into $CATALINA_HOME/webapps and access Install.jsp,
then an admin account seems to get created with user id {0} and
password {1}. What do the curly-brace expressions mean? I can't figure
them out.
3) If I do as
http://doc.jspwiki.org/2.4/wiki/InstallingJSPWikiStepByStep
says and put JSPWiki.war's contents somewhere else than
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps, then how do I tell Tomcat where to look for
the wiki? The document seems to presuppose there is a folder like
/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.17/conf/Catalina/localhost
where one is supposed to put a property file called something like
myfirstwiki.xml (where <myfirstwiki<> is the name of a wiki.) But my
Tomcat 6.0.16 does not have a directory like that:
