I like XPlanner, but I am also very suspicious on beta’s being frozen for years (ok, GMail being a nice exception :)). Anyway, today I was happily changing XPlanner configuration to get around a known bug in XPlanner, which fortunately didn’t cost too much time to find solution for. XPlanner on Tomcat 5.5 + Java-6 on Ubuntu 8.04 apparently result in an exception during startup. The following explanation (thanks Alex!) gives a quick fix.
- in
/xplanner/WEB-INF/classes/sbring-beans.xml - for Find the bean
id="metaRepository" - replace
<map>......</map>
with
<property name="repositories">
<bean class="java.util.HashMap">
<constructor-arg>
<map>.....</map>
</constructor-arg>
</bean>
</property>
Arrgggh, I feel I am hacking too much just to get get things working while I already expect them to work out of a box. Is this the way all admins feel?..
