Apache Roller 4.0 Released




Apache Roller 4.0 now has a final release.

I have been using the release candidates of Apache Roller 4.0 for about a month now and it has been working great for me. I love the interface and it works great. I am so happy that they have finally completed 4.0 and it has finally been released.

Download it here you won’t be disappointed.

Update: 12/8/2007
I upgraded my roller site from Apache Roller 4.0rc10 to the full release today and everything went like a charm. I am running the roller site using Tomcat and all I had to do was stop the Tomcat instance, copy over the files in my roller installed directory, then restart tomcat and everything was working great.

HI,

I was trying to configure apache roller 4.0 with tomcat, but i get the following error

Status Code 500
Message An exception occurred processing JSP page /index.jsp at line 31 28: } else { 29: // dispatch to setup page 30: RequestDispatcher setuppage = request.getRequestDispatcher("/roller-ui/setup.rol"); 31: setuppage.forward(request, response); 32: } 33: 34: %> Stacktrace:
Type
Exception Roller has encountered and logged an unexpected exception.

I looked up for the setup.rol file..i could not find it in the roller-ui folder but could not find. Can you please help me out.

Thanks,

I have not had to setup roller from scratch in a while. I would double check over the installation instructions to make sure everything is ready for the
roller automated setup will work. If you would like to try out a preconfigured instance of Roller, you should look at http://bitnami.org/stack/roller . I believe it will take you through the setup.rol when you
first start it. You can use this as a good baseline for something that works.

I didn't get such a good impression as you, so many bugs on jre 6 & tomcat 6 that after I got rid of two of them, the last one told me: let it be...

javax.servlet.ServletException: org.apache.tiles.TilesException: Error including path '/WEB-INF/jsps/tiles/tiles-simplepage.jsp'. Unable to compile class for JSP
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.Dispatcher.serviceAction(Dispatcher.java:515)
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher.doFilter(FilterDispatcher.java:419)

etc., etc.,
