Hi Patrick,
Assuming you have Java installed on the new machine, simply copying
everything (Forrest + Your Project) should work just fine. Good luck!

Patrick, the configuration should not have any system-specific
settings, so it should be okay.

I was wondering about the "cache". I expect that it too should
be portable. If you do see issues then do 'forrest clean'
in each of your projects.

Thank you for all of your answers !

The move is sheduled for Thursday so i might be able to tell you if it workes then.
Anothers thing i was wondering in which directory do i have to be to run
'forrest commands' or is that an "systemwide" command once i set the variables ?!

I did not maintain the server so i've never done that before.

After you set up your environment[1], the forrest command will be on
your "path" - allowing you to run it from anywhere. Generally, you'd
run it from a project directory or a directory where you want a
project created.

--tim

[1] - http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_90/your-project.html#Setting+up+the+Environment

Most set FORREST_HOME to the apache Forrest root and then include FORREST_HOME/bin on the path. As such, it would then be system wide.

Most of this is RTFM at http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_90/your-project.html#Setting+up+the+Environment.

Best of luck and enjoy Forrest!

Hi,

Today was the day.
We copied all the files (install folder and project folder) und set the variables.
Unfortunately it's not working.

We did the following:

We copied apache-forrest and workflow-dok (that's our project) to C:\forrest\.
We set the Variables to:

FORREST_HOME = C:\forrest\apache-forrest\
Path = ...;%FORREST_HOME%\bin

We did a restart and the variables are set properly.
If we enter 'forrest run' it says that it does not recognize forrest as a command.

We've also tried to run the forrest.bat directly with 'forrest.bat run'.
It starts running but the build fails with an error that it can't find a documentation folder in C:\forrest\apache-forrest\. That's weird because our project-folder is C:\forrest\workflow-dok anyway.

What are we doing wrong ?!

PS: I can't take a look at the configuration of our old server since it is not located in the same building (or country) and i have no remote-acced.

Thanks in advance

Kind regards

That seems to be a PATH setting issue and has nothing to do with forrest itself.

cd to your project-folder (the folder taht contains the forrest.properties file) and run forrest again

That should do the trick.

Does not sound like the variables are set properly.

Please open a cmd window and paste the output of

echo %FORREST_HOME%

echo %PATH%

Because you need to run the command from the project directory which
you can't do without the 'forrest' command working.

Thanks you for your really fast response.
I've also noticed that it says that JAVA_HOME is not set but it is :-(

Here is what those echos are giving me.

Echo %JAVA_HOME%: C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.6.0_03\bin
Echo %FORREST_HOME%: C:\forrest\apache-forrest
Echo %PATH%: C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;%FORREST_HOME%\bin

Seems right to me...

Kind regards

Because you need to run the command from the project directory which
you can't do without the 'forrest' command working.

I do not see Java on the path... That is why you get the error java not found. Put java on the path.

Your %FORREST_HOME% did not expand .. I am more of a Mac person, but I would have expected to see C:\forrest\apache-forrest instead. Try hard coding that..

Yeah, looks right.

what happens when you:

cd %FORREST_HOME/main

build

..

Also try setting the variables manually in the cmd window directly:

set FORREST_HOME=C:\forrest\apache-forrest
set PATH=%PATH%;%FORREST_HOME\bin

(those should stay set until the cmd windows is closed again)

then run

forrest -projectHelp

Okay, it already looks a little bit better - i can do 'forrest run now'

If i do so he sill warns me that JAVA_HOME isn't set and the build fails with:

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.

BUILD FAILED
C:\forrest\apache-forrest\main\forrest.build.xml:434: Java returned: 1

echo %PATH%: C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\forrest\apache-forrest\bin;C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.6.0_03\bin

any suggestions ?!

Patrick, i do not know what that Jetty problem is yet.

Would you please try this:

Create a new directory anywhere, and then cd to it, i.e.
] mkdir test
] cd test
] forrest seed-sample
] forrest run

Then with your web browser go to:
localhost:8888

That will run the test sample site to ensure that
all is well with your Forrest setup.

-David

David,

I can't do forrest seed-sample because such a target does not seem to exist.
So i did forrest seed instead und then forrest run.

I get the same Exceptions:

That explains why the 'forrest seed-sample' is not available
but 'forrest seed' is exactly the same thing.

Using the old Forrest-0.7 should be okay.

Would you please do the following. Not sure of the syntax for
Windows but you see what i mean. We are cleaning and re-building Forrest.

] cd $FORREST_HOME/main
] build clean
] build

Then try the 'forrest run' again in that test seed site.

-David

David,

Thank you for your help.
I did not follow your last instructions because it seems to work now.
I got no clue why but it does ;-)

So thank you guys for your support !

Have a great weekend !

Kind regards
