[opencms-dev] OpenCMS Alpha 2 on Windows XP

[Alexander Kandzior]

Yes, we do install on XP regularly. We have NTFS and e.g. my path is
C:\Java\Tmpcat_5_18\.
 
A workarounf may be zipping the modules (each module folder, individually)
before starting the setup. Zipped modules are still supported, of course,
it's just easier to keep them in CVS zipped.

Best Regards,
Alex.

Hi all,

 

Has anyone managed to install Alpha 2 on Windows XP? My attempts keep
failing and I am starting to think that it must be because Windows XP still
have 255 characters limitation for path length
(http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-u
s/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/prkc_
fil_rbrx.asp). My installation fails with the modules, but gets always
further shorter I set by tomcat path. However, my tomcat is now in root
directory and called 't', so cannot shorten the path any more than that.

 

Regards,

 

Olli
