Hi Ernie,
Congrats on LAMS progress.
I have installed most of the stuff
locally. The Jabber server turned out
to be just a zip-file though, I can
extract it but no install process starts :-(

I can start LAMS via http://localhost:8080/lams/index.jsp
and log in but the only tabs I can see are:
My Profile | Sys Admin | Groups Mgt | My groups
I can change my profile and see, add new groups etc.
All I can do with Sys Admin is Cache Managment,
Maintain login page and Batch tasks.
There's no mechanism to start the program and
start designing sequences...

I was not sure about the MySQL PW so I left
that empty when installing but I think I have
a PW for root; only I don't remember where to
set or change it.

Cheers, Anders

Hi!

You need to add a new group and add a new user to the group. If you log as a user, you can author contents.

The is a windows installer version for Jabber. Try it. If you install the wildfire in windows server, you need to connect the server from other computer to launch the admin page to finish setup.

Cheers,

With the Wildfire zip file, you can start the jabber server by double-clicking wildfire.exe which is in the wildfire\bin directory. Or alternatively, you could use the installer as Jong-Dae suggests :) I've updated the installer help page to include a link to the installer as well.

Wildfire have a good guide to starting and setting up on Windows here: http://www.jivesoftware.org/builds/wildfire/docs/latest/documentation/install-guide.html#windows

... to get to the authoring screen, you need to login as a user with the author role - the sysadmin doesn't have this.

... if you can login to LAMS as sysadmin and poke around, then your mysql root password was correct (i.e., blank).
