I have just installed pebble on an apache 5.5.7 + Java 1.6.0 setup, and Everything works great except the most important thing, after entering a post , and clicking preview it work but then going from post -> save or preview -> save, i get a message:

Error
Sorry, there has been a problem with your request.

The read more link simply displays the information about the post. What can i do to resolve this? Thanks.

Hi, I solved the problem.

You need to download xalan-j from apache group http://xalan.apache.org/, then put the lib files in your tomcat C:\tomcat\common\endorsed.

The reason why we need to do this is probably Pebble 2.0.1 use Fkeditor with some XML tech.

I had upgraded pebble to apache 5.5 and java 1.5. Fixed xalan problem. setup multi-blog. But after I tar the data directory across, I could not see the data, please advise. Here is what I did:

on my old data directory:

stop tomcat

tar cvf DATA 2006 2007 categories.xml index logs

scp across to the new data directory

remove theme entry from blog.properties

delete theme subdir

restart tomcat

Hi Simon,

thanks for the great work on the new release. I really like it and upgrading from 1.9 was just easy. Just one hint on the documentation: "activation.jar and mail.jar  files from the lib directory of the Pebble distribution into $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib/."

These libraries are Missing in the actual download. Please integrate it if possible - for the rest of the readers: Grab it from Sun (activation.jar)  and Sun (mail.jar) .

Thanks for all the work,
Marco

Sorry my mistake - tried to find it directly in the webapps lib directory ignoring the rest of the zip file :)

I was not able to install 2.0.1 from scratch in a Linux + Resin(3.0.18) + Pebble(2.0.1) environment.  I left a rather lengthy (and hopefuly thorough) email in the forum.  Essentially I am receiving the "too many servlet includes" problem.  I turned fast-jstl to false but that didn't help.  I am not sure what to try at this point.

Hi Aaron,

I had the same problem as you; it looks like it's a problem with the syntax in some of the jsp files. I guess resin doesn't like EL expressions inside <fmt:param> blocks.

Before you go drilling down into the code below, please note that I changed the href's into hreff's, because FCKEditor is mangling them into actual links.

Find your expanded pebble webapp directory and drill down to /themes/default/jsp and open template.jsp. Check out the footer:

<div id="footer">
  <fmt:message key="common.poweredBy">
    <fmt:param>
      <a hreff="http://pebble.sourceforge.net">Pebble ${pebbleContext.buildVersion}
    </fmt:param>
  </fmt:message> </div>

Rewrite it so that the parameter value is expressed as a value attribute instead of enclosed tag text:

<div id="footer">
  <fmt:message key="common.poweredBy">
    <fmt:param value="<a hreff="http://pebble.sourceforge.net">Pebble ${pebbleContext.buildVersion}">
  </fmt:param> </fmt:message></div>

That's the one that's causing your immediate problem. There is a similar <fmt:param> tag in blogEntry.jsp that dorks up the formatting of the blog entry editing screen; you'll just need to stick it in an attribute just like in the above example.

I hope that helps!

Hi,-

here comes a question from a novice to blogging tools: How is the web.xml file to be configured when deploying Pebble 2 under Resin 3.0.21? I have taken the pebble.war from the zip pebble-2.0.0-RC2 and dropped it under resin-3.0.21/webapps. The URL http://localhost:8080/pebble gives me the following:
<h1>500 Servlet Exception</h1> <code></code>

WEB-INF/web.xml:9: <description> is an unexpected tag (parent <web-app>
starts at 6). Check for duplicate and out-of-order tags.
<web-app> syntax: (@id?, @version, @xsi:schemaLocation?,
                   (<context-param>*
                   & (<description>*, <display-name>?, <icon>?)
                   & <distributable>?
                   & (<env-entry>*, <ejb-ref>*, <ejb-local-ref>*, <service-ref>*, <resource-ref>*, <resource-env-ref>*, <message-destination-ref>*)
                   & <error-page>*
                   & <filter>*
                   & <filter-mapping>*
                   & <jsp-config>?
                   & <listener>*
                   & <locale-encoding-mapping-list>?
                   & <login-config>?
                   & <message-destination>*
                   & <mime-mapping>*
                   & <security-constraint>*
                   & <security-role>*
                   & <servlet>*
                   & <servlet-mapping>*
                   & <session-config>?
                   & <welcome-file-list>?))

Many thanks beforehand,
