Tomcat verison & WebHome url?
Hi All, I am new to xwiki & have a couple of simple questions I was unable find in the documentation or the mailing list. First, the documentation on installing xwiki on Win2K says I need Tomcat v4.1. I was wondering if Tomcat 5 would work & if there were any issues I needed to be aware of before trying to run xwiki in Tomcat 5. Second, the url to the xwiki webhome is mydomain.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome. I would like the url to be mydomian.com/xwiki. I noticed some people are using the redirect meta tag to accomplish this. xwiki.org seems to be using some other mechanism to other than a redirect to forward the user to the more complicated url. I was wondering if others have the same concern and how they resolved the issue. Thanks for your help!! Linda

I use an Apache Redirect to accomplish this: Redirect permanent /index.html http://myxwiki.server.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome So, for you it would look like this: Redirect permanent /xwiki/index.html http://myxwiki.server.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome The index.html file doesn't need to exist as long as it is defined as one of the default index pages. This assumes of course that you're using Apache as a front end to the application server. -- Brian D. Switzer e-mail: herkamur -=>at<=- canada -=>dot<=- com web: http://bswitzer.railfan.net/
Hi,
I was wondering if Tomcat 5 would work I'm running XWiki on Tomcat v5.5.15 on Windows XP with no problems.
