I can run Apache Lenya on my Linux system with Java 1.4, but not on a Windows system with Java 1.5. Does Lenya really work with Windows?
It works with Windows, but not with Java 1.5 yet.
Although Lenya seems to build successfully with Java 1.5, it doesn’t operate completely correctly in that configuration.
However, with Java 1.4, all the site management features work correctly if all required supporting tools are in place. Lenya uses the program “xsltproc” for manipulating XML documents with the XSLT style sheets to produce HTML Web pages. Linux systems are likely to already have the xsltproc programs installed by default, unlike Windows. Pre-compiled Windows versions of the xsltproc tools are found here
After downloading and installing “iconv,” “zlib,” “libxml,” and “libxslt,” rebuild Lenya using a Java 1.4 SDK. Type
build kupu
to build Lenya with the Kupu Web page editor included. Run the newly built Lenya by executing lenya.bat. Go to http://localhost:8888 and log on to the editor view by following the prompts.
Now you should be able to add or delete document pages through the Site tab menu, as well as edit the pages using Kupu from the Edit tab menu.
