Hellllp! Can't get it to remember Logon

[Leigh McMullen]

I'm a total noob to configuring this stuff on Linux, so please bear with me if my question is stupid.

I have got the portal all setup (Ubuntu, Tomcat 5.0.28, everything right from the package provided by eXo), everything seems to be working beautifully. and when I enter logon credentials it seems to log me on, and then promptly forgets who I am, takes me back to the generic portal page, and there is still a "sign in" button up top.

When I try and log on to the WebOS same thing happens, I enter "valud creds" and it takes me to the generic anonymous portal page, and seems to have forgotten who I am.

I tried to enter "bad" creds and it does kick those out as being bad.

I am sure this is just a crazy configuration issue on my part being new to the technology. but can someone help a fella out?

thanks in advance.

Leigh.

Hi Leigh,

 

A question is never stupid :-).

 

Two things :

- Are you launching Tomcat using the eXo.sh shell script ?

- If yes, could you try to export all the variables defined into that script ? We had some reports saying that this operation is needed in some environments. I'm not sure if this is fixed in the version you have.

thank you for your response.

I did export the vars in the eXo.sh script. but this did not work for me.  I ran eXo in "debug" mode from a terminal which let me see what it was doing... it looked like it was having some failures from Java, I think I messed this machine up evaluating portals (trying to pick one for a client). So I'm doing a whipe of everything and a fresh install, where I'll install eXo first.

Another question. just to try an keep things as simple as possible on my new OS install, (Ubuntu) I installed the tomcat5.5 from the package manager, which means we have Tomcat up and running before we install eXo. is there a guide you or someone else can point me to on how to install eXo into an existing tomcat install?

(also I installed Java6 rather than java5 I hope this wont cause any problems ;) )

thanks again

Leigh
