Hi,
I had attended your Seminar at SJSU. I have decided to take the project
Social Site.
I could download,install both the Glassfish and Social Site successfully.I
have couple of doubts, one regarding apache ant , installation from source
files and another regarding deploying the war file.
1.) When i give the full name of ant folder in the environment variable
path, it doesn't take it. If i give short variable names like 'Ant' it takes
it and i am able to run ant from command prompt. In the sense that when i
download Ant , i get the folder name as "Apache-Ant 1.7.1". So, give the
full name but the DOS shell doesn't take it , it says "ant" doesn't exist
but if i give the path like "C:\Ant" in the Ant_home , it takes it. I use
Windows-XP and is it because windows version doesn't support long file
names?
Also, i tried giving the variable value in Quotes with full variable name
and that works !!.
2.) I installed Netbeans IDE 1.6 and tried to deploy the war file (from the
Social Site directory) but when i create the project, it is asking me to
include web-inf folder which i didn't find in the war file (after unzipping
it). I just created a simple web project and tried to import the war
file..My goal was to get the application running on netbeans (Had already
included glassfish while installation of netbeans).Is this enough to test
for black box testing?
So, i request you to let me know as to what i should do to get the
application running on netbeans and also how to add new gadgets after that.
3.) Finally, to do white box testing, i downloaded the source files but when
i see the instructions to test the installation using source files, the
online doc says that i need to use svn to get the files from the domain
java.net. Could you explain this?
I thought that unless i get hold of the source files and do a basic
installation, i cannot start white box test.
Thanks,
