When you did the separation, did you modify jetty.xml to point to the
location of your old postgres database for the users?

Hi,
I am running Archiva 1.1.3 in under Debian Linux in standalone mode
with Postgre for a database. I did not set it up originally but it
falls to me to maintain it now and to upgrade it to Archvia 1.2 :(
As a first step I separated the base from the Archiva installation.
As a second step I backed up the archiva "data" and "config"
directories and followed the instructions at the end of this page to
do the migration to 1.2:
http://archiva.apache.org/docs/1.2/adminguide/standalone.html
After the upgrade Archiva 1.2 did boot but none of the user
information from the previous installation was retained. I was
prompted to create and admin account and subsequently created couple
of user accounts.
But what I really want is all my users back :) For now I went back to
Archiva 1.1.3. It seems to run fine. I seem to need to talk to
postgre and move tables around or something of this sort. I am sadly
just as new to postgre as I am to archiva. I've used only mysql so
far. So..help! :)
Cheers,
Todor
I didn't do anything special regarding the jetty.xml. I copied "conf"
and "data" from the archiva directory to /var/archiva. I tweaked the
reposotory paths in archiva.xml to be in /var/archiva. Finally I set
ARCHIVA_BASE to /var/archiva. Since jetty.xml was already set up to use
the database I did not have to touch it (I think). Currently it contains
this entry:
<New id="users" class="org.mortbay.jetty.plus.naming.Resource">
<Arg>jdbc/users</Arg>
<Arg>
<New class="org.postgresql.ds.PGPoolingDataSource">
<Set name="serverName">localhost</Set>
<Set name="databaseName">archiva_users</Set>
<Set name="user">xxxx</Set>
<Set name="password">xxxx</Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</New>
There are similar entries for the other archiva databases.
