Hi,
I am a beginner with Lenya, have managed to generate and edit my own
publication, and now want to publish it (on the Internet).
I've read through the Lenya documentation, but being a beginner have problems
understanding the concepts.
What do I have to do?
Can you be a bit more specific?
I've tried the following URL:
http://localhost:8888/icarus/live/index.html
and this works fine (on the local system) using Jetty as the servlet engine.
I now want to transfer this to our server, which is connected to the Internet
(my Web domain is icarus.aero) so I guess my first task is to "build" the "live"
data "on to" the server. ->Where do I change this so the "live" data is
redirected to the server and not left on the local computer as in the default
system?
If you want to do that you can try the StaticHTMLExporter see:
http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/HowToExportStaticHTML.
I did not try this usecase yet ....
After exporting your page you have to make cronjob which will copy the
published pages to the Webserver. You should have a look in your
lenya/bin directory. You will find examples there how to do it in the
replicate.sh script.
In principle you have a live area in lenya
http://somehost:someport/<context>/<pub-id>/live/ÿÿdocument-name> as e.g.
http://www.myhost.org:8080/lenya/mypub/live/foo/bar.html
In the most simple case you can access your live site with that URL.
A more common practice is to have an apache in front of your servlet
Ok I've downloaded and successfully run Tomcat version 5.0.28 as recommended but
I don't see how Apache figures in this. I thought that Tomcat is the webserver
and servlet engine "in one".
Tomcat can be used as a webserver but as far as i know that is not common
practice.
However if you do a static export as described above then you can simply
deliver your site as other static html files. And for that you should
definitively use the apache http server.
