Re: [epf-dev] How to start EPFWiki as a service

[John.Zabel@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,

I can not find where we have a proxy
server for internet access. The error I get with the yaml web site is that
a username and password are required, but I don't know what that means.

Hi John,
I can access the site right now but I have experienced problems with accessing
the gems as well in the past.

A common problem is when you are behind a proxy server. In that case you
can append a switch to set the proxy server for example gem install xhtmldiff
-p http://myproxy.com:80.
If the proxy requires authentication you can add username and password
to the URL of the proxy server.

You can also download the gems manually from http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems
on a machine that access to the gem site. Transfer the gem to the server
and then append the filename to gem install to install it.

HTH,
Onno

Hello, 

Everything listed below sounds good, except the gem website http://gems.rubyforge.org/yaml
is no longer active and the install of gem can not be used as it throws
the following error: 

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteSourceException)
    HTTP Response 403 fetching http://gems.rubyforge.org/yaml

I have no idea how to get around this, so I am stuck.

Hello. 
This is roughly how I do it by combining steps from the developer guide
and the installation guide. I then run Mongel as a service without an Apache
wrapper. 
       http://wiki.eclipse.org/EPF_Wiki_Development_Guide
       http://wiki.eclipse.org/EPF_Wiki_Installation_Guide
also see this page 
       http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/wiki/Win32


- Follow all the steps described in dev guide except testing; Aptana Studio
is optional, but recommended if you want to make changes (e.g. I customized
the Welcome page) 
       - you can get the source from CVS or use the
EPF downloads instead (using the instructions from the installation guide)
       - instead of / in addition to creating a development
database you need to create a database with RAILS_ENV=production
- go back to the Installation guide and make the described changes to the
environments/production.rb (server name, smtp server, etc.)
- test the server in a Windows command window 
       ruby script/server -e production -p 3000
- perform these steps to set-up the service (adjust the path for -c)
       gem install mongrel_service
       mongrel_rails service::install -N epfwiki15
-c c:\epfwiki15 -p 3000 -e production 
- set the service to run automatically using the Windows computer management
console or net commands 
- finish the steps of setting up the automatic task described in the installation
guide 

Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Hi John,
A workaround is to disconnect the connection (and not log out) so the user
session doesn't terminate. 

Windows and InstantRails is not recommended for a production environment.
The recommended OS is Linux, there is a installation guide for Ubuntu see
http://wiki.eclipse.org/EPF_Wiki_Installation_Guide_for_Ubuntu.
Should be easy to translate this guide for other distributions. I have
used EPF Wiki on Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE.

InstantRails offers all the required bits for running a Rails app in a
single download. It is doesn't install or leave anything on the OS which
is done on purpose.

I'm not sure right now if it is easy to create Windows services from InstantRails.
Maybe it is easier the install the individual bits MySQL, Ruby, Rails,
Mongrel, Apache I think then you will have all the services but the drawback
is that you have to do configuration yourself.

Best Regards,
Onno

I have installed and configured the EPFWiki and its functions. However,
I do not know how to run it as a service on the server where it is installed.
Without running it as a service, I need to log into the server, start InstantRails
and Start the EPFWiki. When I log out of the server the EPFWiki terminates.
How do I keep it up and running when I am not logged into th server?
