Required Jars for Roller Webapp
Due to licensing restrictions, Roller does not include the Hibernate jars required to run Roller. The Roller installation guide explains how to get these jars from the Hibernate web site, to extract only the ones you need and to place those into the Roller install.
To make Roller installation a little easier, we've packaged up the Hibernate files required to run Roller here on the Roller Support site.
How to install the Required Jars for Roller Webapp
- Download the Roller Webapp release
apache-roller-X.Y-incubating.tar.gz from Apache
- Follow the instructions in the Roller Installation Guide to install Roller
- When you get to Step 3.1 "Download and install Hibernate" stop -- instead of going to the Hibernate site download
required-jars-roller-webapp-X.Y.tar.gz from the Roller support site
- Extract the file
required-jars-roller-webapp-X.Y.tar.gz into the Roller installation directory [1]
- Procede with the installation
[1] Here's an example of how you would extract the files on a UNIX system where Roller is installed into /usr/local/roller
% cp required-jars-roller-webapp-X.Y.tar.gz /usr/local/roller
% cd /usr/local/roller
% tar xzvf required-jars-roller-webapp-X.Y.tar.gz
