Hi Danny,
I have tried yersterday to install the last version (from SVN) of
Semantic Bank on a local machine and play with the last (== great!)
release of Piggy Bank... but I think there are some troubles.
I am able to create a new account on Semantic Bank, via Piggy
Bank options, and see it in my Semantic Bank installation but
when I try to publish/persist something on my banks I will not
see anything on my Semantic Bank. I am sure I am missing
something and that it is my fault, but I do not know what/why :-(
Instead, everything works fine with the last (old) release of
Semantic Bank, that you find here:
http://simile.mit.edu/dist/semantic-bank/
These are my settings in semantic-bank.properties:
bankCorpus.connector=edu.mit.simile.longwell.corpus.NativeSesameConnector
bankCorpus.database=longwell2
bankCorpus.modelName=default
vaultDir=./vault
baseURI=
http://castagna.example.org:8888/account#
server.host=0.0.0.0
server.port=8888
server.contextPath=/bank
server.resourcePath=./src/ui/html
Maybe I am doing something wrong... :-/
I am using server.host=0.0.0.0 because is an internal
installation and I do not need Apache.
In theory should be possible to start up a Semantic Bank
installation from a Servlet (or Listener) running inside Tomcat,
but I think there could be problems with the class loading
and maybe with relative filepaths... why you want shoot on
your feets trying running Semantic Bank inside Tomcat? :-D
For Stefano:
>From here: http://simile.mit.edu/semantic-bank/dev-guide.html
1. cd where/you/want/it
2. svn checkout
http://simile.mit.edu/repository/longwell/branches/2.0/ longwell2
3. svn checkout
http://simile.mit.edu/repository/semantic-bank/trunk/ semantic-bank
4. cd longwell2
5. ant
6. cd ../semantic-bank
7. ant
change line 13 inside semantic-bank/build.properties
errata:
longwell=../Longwell2
corrige:
longwell=../longwell2
... or change 2. svn checkout
http://simile.mit.edu/repository/longwell/branches/2.0/ Longwell2
I know, it is trivial to fix... but maybe someone will not find it
immediatly. :-)
Bye.
