RE: [jreceiver_user] Windows Documentation: Server Install: JReceiver

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Note: You should complete the following installations prior to starting on
this section.

- Java
- MySQL
- MySQLFront
- Jetty
- Jikes

DRAFT FOR COMMENT:

[WINDOWS]

Start by downloading the "Jreceiver Server Binaries and user
documentation" (zip version) from the downloads section of the
JReceiver site. Unzip it into a temporary directory (preserving the path
names.)

There are two steps to this, first the config of MySQL, secondly the config
of Jetty.

For the MySQL config, start by going to the etc directory, and
double-clicking jrec_mysql.sql. This will start up my_sql front, and you
should log in as the Database administrator. Select the JReceiver database
in the left-hand column, and the Query tab in the right. Then click the
"video play" icon (ie the right-pointing arrowhead thing) icon
bar above. This will run a lot of SQL, and create your database. If you now
select another database in the left-hand column, then reselect JReceiver,
you will see that the database now contains 20-or-so tables. I'm
deliberately not giving an exact number, because it might creep up in
future releases of JReceiver, and I want these docs to last ;-)

Now, with the JReceiver database still selected, go back to the Query tab,
and select-all, then delete the SQL query. Now type in the alternative
query, replacing the word HOSTNAME with the name of your PC. (If you can't
remember, right-mouse-button on "My Computer" on the desktop,
select Properties, then Network identification to find out - only the bit
BEFORE the first "." counts.)

      GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON
*.*
           TO
jreceiver_app@localhost, jreceiver_app@<HOSTNAME>;

Now select, Tools/Usermanager, and select the "Edit Users" tab.
You should see two users, both called jreceiver_user@<something>. For
each of them in turn, click the "Edit User" button at the bottom,
and give each a password (the same password as each other, but ideally
different from the Database administrator password.)

You have now completed all the MySQL configuration required, so you can
exit MySQLFront.

There are four parts to the Jetty config:

1: Extracting the XML file
2: Editing jetty.bat
3: Extracting the Java Servlets
4: Editing the config file

1: Go to the /etc/jetty section of the zip file you downloaded. You will
find a file called jrec.xml. Copy this file to the /etc directory of the
Jetty install. (eg C:\Program files\Jetty-3.1.7\etc)

2: Now go to the /bin subdirectory of the Jetty install, and edit
Jetty.bat. Find the line that reads:

      if [%1]==[] (set ARGS=etc\admin.xml
etc\demo.xml & goto args_done)

and replace the demo.xml with jrec.xml so it now reads:

      if [%1]==[] (set ARGS=etc\admin.xml
etc\jrec.xml & goto args_done)

3: In the webapps subdirectory of the Jetty Install (eg C:\Program
files\Jetty-3.1.7\webapps), create 2 new subdirectories called jrec_serv
and jreceiver. In the dist subdirectory of the JReceiver download, you'll
find two files called jrec_serv.war and jreceiver.war. Extract the contents
of jrec_serv.war into the jrec_war directory you just created, and the
contents of jreceiver.war into the jreceiver directory. The easiest way to
do this is probably just to rename the files from .war to .gz and double
click them!

4: In the /etc directory of the JReceiver download, you'll find a file
called jreceiver.properties. Edit this file and replace the text mypassword
with the database password you just created in the line that reads:
      
      password=mypassword

Finally, copy this jreceiver.properties file to ????? <AARGH - HELP ME
ON THIS ONE, GUYS>
