Technical Report

Brief installation overview

  1. Aquire Java JDK, Apache Ant, Eclipse 3.1.x, Tomcat 4.1.30, Tapesry 3.0.3, and optionally the Spindle 3.2.0 update site zip (or download directly using eclipse).
    Links
  2. Install Java, Apache Ant, and Tomcat. Use Ant to deploy Tapestry to the tomcat install.
    • Execute the Java download file, and follow wizard.
    • Extract the ant archive to a permanent location, and add the bin directory to the your path.
    • Extract the tomcat archive. Either add JAVA_HOME to your environment variables, or set the variable in the startup and shutdown scripts in the bin directory.
      I found the the install failed on downloading Javassist, if you have this problem, try editing the javassist.loc property in config/common.properties, replacing the server telia.dl.sourceforge.net with your own choice of sourceforge mirror, or simply replace the entire link with a selectio from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jboss/javassist-2.5.1.zip?download
    • Extract the tapestry archive to a temporary location, and follow the instructions in Readme.html under "Configuring Tomcat"
  3. Copy tapestry libs into tomcat lib folder
  4. Install Eclipse and Spindle
