excellent but:
- any file in /etc/ (but not only in /etc/ tree) should be templated.. I'm referring to all /etc/tomcat6 and /etc/profile.d files you create/edit in the first post
- having compilation tools and compile packages in SME server is not a good idea, for security and maintenance reasons..
- you said, above:
Quote
no public rpm
can you explain a bit more?
- this line
Quote
Install the msttcorefonts (if you know another way, send me a mail and I will change this part):
Code: [Select]
rpm -i https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mscorefonts2/rpms/msttcore-fonts-installer-2.6-1.noarch.rpm
should be
Code: [Select]
yum --enablerepo=$whatever install msttcore-fonts-installer
where $whatever is a repo where that rpm is available (I did not search, but I'm confident it will be available in some repo out there)
- when you refer to conf/
Quote
Edit conf/main.property (without Ldap, if you need it, just ask)
is not clear to me where you are in the directory tree

finally.. thank you for your effort.. once this howto is improved and corrected (see my observations and suggestions), you'd "move" it to the wiki (please ask for a wiki access if you don't have any)
TIA

Stefano,
thank you for your observation, this howto needs to be tested a lot because Debian is the recommended distribution and it is what I use every days.

About Tomcat Native, it's not a need for testing so the users should not compile it if they don't know how to use it ;-)

About templates...why not if you can try to make it.

About RPM, in the past I made RPM for my professional use so I can communicate the spec file or I can help to package a java software. For the moment there are Deb packages and tar files for the other distributions.

I don't know any RH family repos for M$ fonts. If someone want to build it I will communicate about it in the scenari forum.

To make the war file you must be in /usr/local/src/scenari/SCENARIserverLite4.1 and the conf folder is inside this folder. The path are :
  • /usr/local/src/scenari/SCENARIserverLite4.1/conf/main.property
  • /usr/local/src/scenari/SCENARIserverLite4.1/conf/advanced/server.xml

finally.. thank you for your effort.. once this howto is improved and corrected (see my observations and suggestions), you'd "move" it to the wiki (please ask for a wiki access if you don't have any)
This howto needs more pictures. Maybe this time I will write it in your wiki if it can help the SME users.

A+

thank you for your interesting observation RequestedDeletion ! It is in this wiki ! ask nicely and I will write it in your wiki !!!

It could be more useful testing this howto and to talk with the dev team or me about what is not clear for you or for the SME users. The scenari softwares need to be more "localized".

A+

Stefano,
thank you for your observation, this howto needs to be tested a lot because Debian is the recommended distribution and it is what I use every days.

if so, I hope someone will try and test it..

Quote

please edit your howto accordingly and put in evidence that is not required/mandatory, thank you

Quote
About templates...why not if you can try to make it.

mmmhh.. do you want me to do your homework? :-)

Quote
About RPM, in the past I made RPM for my professional use so I can communicate the spec file or I can help to package a java software. For the moment there are Deb packages and tar files for the other distributions.

please put here a link to the .spec file so maybe someone will create a .src and .rpm file, thank you

Quote
I don't know any RH family repos for M$ fonts. If someone want to build it I will communicate about it in the scenari forum.

just digged a bit and you're right, this rpm is not available in any repo.. but I found this link
https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/

as long as the font name is not hardcoded (and if so, please read herem comment #2: http://serverfault.com/questions/417346/install-msttcorefonts-on-centos-6-3), this should be the way..

There is a typo in :
Add LibreOffice libraries to Tomcat
Code: [Select]
cp /etc/tomcat6/catalina.properties /etc/tomcat6/catalina.properties.bak
sed -i "s/shared.loader=/shared.loader=\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/ure\/share\/java\/jurt.jar,\\\ \\n \
\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/ure\/share\/java\/ridl.jar,\\\ \\n \
\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/program\/classes\/unoil.jar/g" /etc/tomcat6/catalina.properties

After test, you must edit /etc/tomcat6/catalina.properties with :
Code: [Select]
sed -i "s/shared.loader=/shared.loader=\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/ure\/share\/java\/jurt.jar,\\\\\n \
\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/ure\/share\/java\/ridl.jar,\\\\\n \
\/usr\/lib64\/libreoffice\/program\/classes\/unoil.jar/g" /etc/tomcat6/catalina.properties
this howto needs more tests....

My bad ! I should talk about the spanish and the arabian versions of Opale.

Packaging a font is not a hard task, the problem is the licenses and the M$ Fonts are normally not redistributable.
The spec files are here and the process consists to download the font directly from the M$ website.

ok..

as soon as Daniel give me an access ;-)

To both RequestedDeletion & Xavier.A

Both RequestedDeletion & Xavier.A need a big dose of politeness, understanding & patience.
Would a moderator please censor & reprimand them both.
I am really annoyed to see these continuing "snide like & childish" comments between these two adult people (engineers too, what a shame, they should know better).
Enough guys please !
Leave your petty bickering for somewhere else, no one here at contribs wants to hear your differences of opinions being aired publicly on these forums.
If Chris Burnat were still alive, he would have locked you both out of using the forum for a month, maybe then you would both wake up & stop these attacks on each other.
Please stop & never do it again.
Be polite & courteous at all times.
Thank you
