Hi,
Can you please explain why the screen resolution impacts the rendering
of the product catalog for ecommerce application?
Thanks,

You should preferably use the ant version packed with OFBiz. Else you
might get bad surprises...
Then use ./ant rather than ant

MavrickIT,
I feel your pain.
I'll assume that this is not a production server but one you are using
to
learn OFBiz and ubuntu.
I built an ubuntu server, added svn, ant and the JDK using the
apt-get
commands which will put them in the right places. Most of my help came
from the ubuntu forums which are great. Search the ubuntu forums for
---
apt-get svn -- and you'll find lots of info. Here's what I did:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install subversion
$ sudo apt-get install ant
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
And add these lines in your /home/youruserid/.bashrc near the top.
#JAVA
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java
Just remember to use the sudo command before other commands as that
causes
your commands to run as root for any permissions issue. Like above.
Then I did the svn co command to get the source.
INITIAL DOWNLOAD
$ cd /opt (I put ofbiz in /opt...)
$ sudo svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/trunk ofbiz
this will take awhile but you will have the trunk on a new folder
called
ofbiz
$ cd ofbiz
$ sudo ant run-install
(about 7m 23s on the old PC I use for ubuntu& OFBiz but 34m on my xp
laptop)
This will build your ofbiz.jar file and populate the data
When it is done run:
$ sudo ./startofbiz.sh
This will give a lot of output and end with something like this, when
it
is ready to try:
------------------
2009-10-06 06:25:34,806 (main) [ BeanShellContainer.java:101:INFO ]
NOTICE: BeanShell service ports are not secure. Please protect the
ports
----------------------
point your browser to ( if it is on the same computer )
http://127.0.0.1:8080/ecommerce
or https://127.0.0.1:8443/catalog/control/main
that should work, if not, I'd like to refine it so it does.
Updating is easy
$ cd /opt/ofbiz
$ sudo svn up
$ sudo ./stopofbiz.sh
$ sudo ./stopofbiz.sh
Yes I seem to have to do it twice.
You can check to see if ofbiz is running with
$ ps -ef | grep ofbiz
Which will have the line:
$ sudo ant
$ sudo ./startofbiz.sh
If it has an error in starting , run
$ sudo ant clean-all run-install
To get a clean database and reinstall the demo data. Then retry
$ sudo ./startofbiz.sh

Hi MavrickIT:
How about not using "wget" and use the download button from the Wiki.
As
for version, I suggest the one pointed to by the download button.
Beyond
that, I can't help you.
Regards,
Ruth

Hey Hoffman,
Thanks for the solid solution. But I am stuck in again.
$wget http://build.ofbiz.org/ofbiz-trunk-current.zip or
$wget http://build.ofbiz.org/ofbiz-rel9.04-current.zip
typing those commands ofbiz.zip is not downloaded anyway.
so, have no idea of downloading it. What should be the command
exactly.
even
I tried lw-download something like this. Not working.
I find an error 404 not found. like the page cannot be found in any
browser
we see. 404 error means the same.
So.. please help me.
Thanks

Hello MavrickIT:
IMHO, take baby steps: Start by downloading a "zip'd" version from
the
wiki, http://build.ofbiz.org and not the Subversion (SVN) package.
The
instructions regarding which download is appropriate given your
situation are confusing at best. I prefer to keep it simple when
getting
started. A little excerpt from my recent book:
Currently, if you visit the OFBiz site and decide to download a
version,
you have several options. The easiest thing to do is follow the
big
download button and get the "nightly build". This is a
prepackaged
version
ready to unzip and run. Nightly builds contain everything
necessary
to
execute the demonstrations discussed in this book. They also
contain
all
the source code and other artifacts including build scripts that
are
used to
create the nightly builds. In other words, you get "all that and
the
source
too"!
You won't need Tomcat, SVN or Ant to download a nightly build and
get
up
and running quickly. Simply, create the directory you wish to run
OFBiz
in (make sure that Java is on the classpath while working in this
directory), change to that directory, unzip your file there and
startup
OFBiz. For example:
1) Create a directory such as /home/ofbiz
2) Download the zip file to your new directory. You will have
something
that looks like this: /home/ofbiz/ofbizdownload.zip
3) Unzip your file using something like gzip (Not sure what the
Ubuntu
unzip command is.)
4) Move to the unzipped file location doing something like: cd
/home/ofbiz/ofbizdownload
4) Run the Unix OFBiz invocation script that comes with the
distribution: ./startofbiz.sh
5) Navigate to the ecommerce startup page
http://localhost:8080/ecommerce
6) Observe that you see the ecommerce landing page
Once you understand what you've got out-of-the-box and you are ready
to
do some development work, then consider downloading from SVN.

Ruth Hoffman

Thanks Patel for trying to help me out. I have gone through the
links
already
that you gave me. Thing is, I already installed JRE6, full SDK, and
tomcat,
SVN, ANT etc. These were installed in root by default.
I created folder /home/ofbiz. So, there is nothing inside
...home/ofbiz$
I performed svn co http://svn.apache......
Even I tried svn co http://................../ofbiz9+ and svn co
http://......../ofbiz4.0
So, how could I download ofbiz or even extract it, I don't know.
Even,
from
where to download it?
Some google sites say, to download ofbiz separately and extract it
to
/home/ofbiz user. Somewhere
(http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Demo+and+Test+Setup+Guide)
it's
shown that, "OFBiz with embedded Tomcat".
I can't find any exact solution. I am yet confused what should I
type
@
the
terminal for installing Ofbiz from the beginning.
Waiting for any suitable reply.:-(
Thank you.
