Hi Michael, Good on you for trying this. I did the same thing and I can tell you if you persevere, it is worth it. I've currently got multiple wikis running on my raspberry pi, and am very happy with the outcome. In fact, I have multiple tomcats (prod/staging/dev), each with only 128mb in RAM, and multiple wikis within each tomcat.
The setup on linux is: 1) Install clean tomcat 2) Place the JSPWiki.war in your <tomcat> directory (same directory as webapp) 3) Create symbolic link that points your wiki to the JSPWiki.war e.g. ln -s /opt/tomcat/webapps/testwiki.war /opt/tomcat/JSPWiki.war 4) Create a data directory for this wiki e.g. mkdir -p /opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/pages (this will be used later) 5) Start tomcat - note this will expand the testwiki.war and create a folder testwiki in the webapps directory. 6) Shutdown tomcat, as you need to change the baseURL property. 7) Create the file /opt/tomcat/webapps/ *testwiki/WEB-INF/classes/jspwiki-custom.properties* with the following override items: jspwiki.applicationName=testwiki jspwiki.baseURL=http://digitalspider.com.au/testwiki/ jspwiki.workDir=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/ jspwiki.fileSystemProvider.pageDir=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/pages jspwiki.basicAttachmentProvider.storageDir=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/pages jspwiki.filterConfig=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/jspwiki-filters.xml jspwiki.policy.file=jspwiki-custom.policy # This cannot be specified with an absolute path, I've raised a JIRA for this. jspwiki.xmlGroupDatabaseFile=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/groupdatabase.xml jspwiki.xmlUserDatabaseFile=/opt/tomcat/wikis/testwiki/data/userdatabase.xml #jspwiki.pageProvider=VersioningFileProvider #jspwiki.templateDir=haddock 8) Start tomcat, and now you have a custom testwiki 9) Repeat the above to add more wikis. Replace "testwiki" with "wiki_gold" and other names as needed. Note: The same can be done on windows, but without the symbolic links, you need to rename the JSPWiki.war to wiki_gold.war and place this into webapps. Start tomcat, so it creates the exanded directory. Stop tomcat. Create the jspwiki-custom.properties, and then start tomcat again. Note: I've never managed to use the Install.jsp so don't worry if that doesn't work for you. If anyone is inspired, please feel free to update this documentation on the public wiki, as it's pretty cool setup.
