Have you ever heard of antville? I hadn't, but sounds cool:
antville is entirely written in JavaScript and based on Helma, a powerful and fast scriptable open source web application server (which itself is written in Java)
Hmmm, interesting. I don't know about "entirely written in JavaScript" though - sounds kinda fishy to me.
Dave hooked me up with a little referrer love today by mentioning that I am now an official contributor to Roller. I love this software and it should be a lot of fun to watch it grow and evolve. Now I have to start patching all the bugs I logged. This blogging stuff is pretty fun, the only drawback is I dream about what I'm going to write the next day and have a hard time falling asleep. And then when I wake up, I can't remember what I was going to post, or it's not really newsworthy. I'm sure the intrigue will wear off as I do it more.
It crashed both on production (this site) and on my LAN. I wasn't even using it on my LAN is the unfortunate part. I have it installed on a RedHat 7.3 box that mimics my production environment, in hopes of finding solutions to these types of problems. Here's the error I found in both logs. I will investigate at a later date.
I added an enhancement to roller today. Basically, it's a trick I learned with form-based authentication. Rather than having 2 different pages (one for the login, and one for the login failure), you use one page and specify a paramter, such as /login.jsp?error=true for the <form-error-page> value. This makes it easy to add a error message at the top with something like this:
<div class="error">
<logic:present parameter="error">
<bean:message key="error.password.mismatch"/>
</logic:present>
</div>

I finally got this application installed at my ISP (kgbinternet.com). As an FYI, here are the issues I experienced while installing.
- I had to copy WEB-INF/lib/jaxrpc.jar to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib.
- I was getting the following error on Linux/Tomcat 4.0.3:
2002-07-31 13:28:12 ROLLER> PersistenceException getting database connection [org.exolab.castor.jdo.DatabaseNotFoundException: The JNDI name java:comp/env/jdbc/rollerdb does not map to a JDBC DataSource]... and since I was able to reproduce this on WinXP/Tomcat 4.0.3, I upgraded to 4.0.4 at my ISP. BTW, they let ME do this - very cool ;-)- Then I was getting the following error:
TyrexDataSourceFactory: Cannot create DataSource, Exception java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hsql.jdbcDriver... so I sent a message to the Keith at kgbinternet - a couple of hours ago - and I don't know if he did anything, but I'm posting on the working app as we speak!
