I have spent way too much time trying to do a "standard" deploy of JSWPWiki on a "Standard" deploy of Tomcat 7 and linux. (Tried Debian and Ubuntu) .
A big issue is the attempt to write the jspwiki.log to the location that it should not be trying to write to the CATALINA_HOME for Tomcat instead of the CATALINA_BASE. The desire to incorporate the jspwiki.properties within a jar file so as to make it easier to perform upgrades then causes the customization of the CATALINA_HOME directories which then prevents easy upgrades AND portability of jspwiki across various versions of Tomcat and implementation within many hosted environments. I am trying to move multiple Jspwiki's from a self hosted (not standard install of Tomcat) to a hosted environment and have spent WAY too many hours without ever getting Jspwiki to even start with a clean downloaded tomcat7 and Jspwiki jar. There must be a better method or am I missing something? -jim ᐧ -- -jim Jim Willeke On Sun, May 4, 2014 at 5:30 PM, Juan Pablo Santos Rodríguez < juanpablo.san...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Jim, > > from your log, and looking at the code, it seems that the application is > trying to find your policy file (by default, jspwiki.policy, inside the > war's WEB-INF folder), but it's unable to.
