Has anyone built this from a bare local repository lately?[/quote]

experiencing exact the same problem. Mentioned this in a separate thread in this Forum]]> https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/3/633.page https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/3/633.page GMT We are pleased to announce the release of JForum 2.3.0. The new release is the first version of JForum built using Apache Maven as the project management tool.
There are many jar files been updated to the latest version from the maven repository. And we have modified some previous version's bugs during the test.
You can download the latest war file from the following URL, then upload it to your Tomcat's webapps directory:
http://code.google.com/p/jforum2/downloads/list

:idea: Installation Hint
For Linux user, you need to change the unpacked directory's group to tomcat
[code=plain]
cd /path/to/jforum
chgrp -R tomcat .[/code]
and modify the following file permissions:
[code=plain]
chmod 775 images/avatar
chmod 775 images/smilies
chmod 664 images/smilies/*.gif
chmod 775 tmp
chmod 775 upload
chmod 775 WEB-INF
chmod 775 WEB-INF/config
chmod 664 WEB-INF/config/modulesMapping.properties
chmod 664 WEB-INF/config/database/*/*.properties[/code]

If you have JForum updated from some previous version, do the following commands to change the directories and files' permission generated by tomcat
[code=plain]
chown tomcat WEB-INF/config/jforum-custom.conf
chown -R tomcat images/avatar/*
chown -R tomcat upload/*
chown -R tomcat WEB-INF/jforumLuceneIndex
rm -rf WEB-INF/jforumLuceneIndex/*
[/code]

Note: You can regenerate Lucene Index in the Admin Control Panel.

Create a database for jforum
:arrow: MySQL:

mysql -u root -p
[code=sql]
CREATE DATABASE jforum DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO jforum@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'jforum' WITH GRANT OPTION;
flush privileges; [/code]

:arrow: PostgreSQL:
as postgres user:
[code=sql]psql -c "create user jforum createdb;" template1
psql -c "create database jforum with encoding 'unicode';" -U jforum template1
psql -c "alter user jforum nocreatedb;" template1
psql -c "alter user jforum with encrypted password 'jforum';" template1 [/code]

Note: If you upgrade from JForum 2.1.8 then you should run the database scheme upgrade script:

[/code]

You can modify the other memory size options according to your server's capacity.

see [url=http://www.coderanch.com/t/625483/jforum/JForum-JBoss] solution[/url] for detail.

the issue with Smiles is resolved too. The solution was a property value [jforum-custom.conf].forum.link. For me is not pretty clearly, why the jforum needs the ip of host to take a path to smiles (?). The host,on which my jforum runs, has no permanent ip. It means i need each day to change the property [forum.link] and reload a context of jforum on AS.

capcha is resolved due [url]http://jforum.andowson.com/posts/list/63.page [/url]

In general I would say it's better to encode the language files using the \uWXYZ notation you see in Russian file, amongst others.

You can download the latest war file from the following URL, then deploy it to your Tomcat's webapps directory:

I took the original 2.1.8 from Rafael site back in 2008/9 and startet to change the code and functionality some places. It was mainly about security since I use the forum for semi military purposes. I run the forum on a server in my own house behind a firewall and a apache proxy. I have Ubuntu server running virtualbox. The app runs in Tomcat. All behind SSL of course 8)

I removed the self registration, the lost password page, upped the password criteria, and lots of other changes. Mostly small changes. The only way to register is by an invitation by admin.

I was looking forward to maybe upgrade to Jforum 3 some time but then I relized that Rafael stopped the development over two years ago.
Stumbling upon Jforum 2.3.5 today I am looking forward to maybe do some upgrading after all :-) Nice suprise to find you guys here doing things with the old thing :-)

Do I am afraid my changes will get lost one by one when upgrading.

Since I have the original 2.1.8 installed can I just upgrade with yours step by step for each version U think?

I am creating a clone of the virtualbox and look forword to do some upgrading.

Thx

Working fine, except that Category and Forum are loaded at application start, and not refreshed automatically on the node that you are not using when administering the forums.
Meaning, you see two different state of the forum index, depending on the cluster node you are connected.
This forces me to restart the application, which is not nice in a production environment.

So, it would be nice to have the Category and Forum list regularly refreshed (or never cached), or an option to refresh it on each node, or a cluster feature that will allow to inform the other nodes to refresh the Category and Forum list.
It could be that other features are concerned, not discovered yet, but I'mm quite new in jForum.

Can somebody include that in a next release ?]]> https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/28/901.page https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/28/901.page GMT The path should be like: C:\Users\%username%\.m2\repository\com\jhlabs
