Oh! .... (light bulb shows up above my head) ... Magnolia is designed to
run as an expanded archive out of the box, not a war file. Unzip the
war file and upload that to your tomcat server. On first start it needs
to create a logs and repositories folder in the top level of the
webapp. That can't happen if it's deployed as a war archive.

Thank you for your help.

If you renamed your downloaded magnolia from
magnolia-bundled-webapp-3.5.4.war to magnolia.war, the webapp's
context will be magnolia, not magnoliaAuthor.
http://md-lamp:8180/magnolia/.magnolia
Also check your tomcat logs if that doesn't help.

Hi All!
I just installed Tomcat 5.5 and Magnolia on an Ubuntu Server (7.10)
with Apache 2. Tomcat is working fine, near as I can tell. The Web
Application Manager works, for example.
I downloaded the WAR file and used the Deploy function (I used
magnolia-bundled-webapp-3.5.4.war and renamed it to magnolia.war).
For the record, I deployed it using
http://mylamp:8180/manager/deploy?path=/magnoliaAuthor&war=file:/home/administrator/magnolia.war
TomCat Manager does show that magnoliaAuthor is installed but I
cannot start it. When I try to start it, I get the error: FAIL -
Application at context path /magnoliaAuthor could not be started.
And yes, I have the JDK installed (sun-java5-jdk 1.5.0-13-0ubuntu1
is the package installed).
I then try to go to http://md-lamp:8180/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia
(that's what's in the readme) and
http://md-lamp:8180/magnoliaAuthor/ (which is what was documented on
a page on the net) and neither work. I get this error message:
HTTP Status 404 - /magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia
type Status report
message /magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia
description The requested resource (/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia) is
not available.
One last point. I also tried installing this manually (the doc page
I found said to copy the way into the webapps folder, start up
Tomcat and it would bootstrap the application) with the same success.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
