Topic: KnowledgeTree / login for WebDAV?

I installed the “native” version of KT on a Windows XP box that is tied to my company’s network. I just want to open the repository using Web Folders in windows. When I go to create the Web Folder it asked for a user/password. But it rejects the admin user I created when installing KT, and also a new user I created (also member of the administrative group).

How should I specify the user/password?

Geoprocessing/Map Serving Stack: This would definitely add diversity to the Bitnami stack and might seem to appeal to a limited audience. However, location-based services and geoprocessing (thanks to the likes of Google, Yahoo, MS, and Oracle) are becoming increasingly important in mainstream applications.

Consider the VM stack described here

http://maps.co.mecklenburg.nc.us/ft/?p=261

This effectively creates a complete geoprocessing and map serving stack that would be a great boon to those of us who normally spend a long time creating these platforms (and for many who find it impossibly complex).

A complete stack would consist of Postgres with the PostGIS plugin for data/geodata management and geoprocessing, an application server/web server (Apache plus PHP and or Tomcat/Glassfish), a map server (UMN Mapserver or Geoserver), a cache to reduce load such as Geowebcache and then a simple web app to demonstrate successful installation such as OpenLayers which is included with Geoserver

Topic: LAPPStack / PostGIS on Postgres?

Does this or any of the Postgres installer provide the PostGIS geospatial plugin for Postgres? Spatially enabling data (most people will think of this as location-based services) is increasingly important and this addition to Postgres provides rich support for geometric data types. However, it’s installation is a little tough and would greatly benefit from the BitNami approach. This especially true if the extensions such as geos and proj4 are included.

PostGIS spatially enables data for simple things (think Google) but also hard core geoprocessing and map serving.

That will keep the data intact, correct?

I’m practicing with it right now following the directions at http://www.redmine.org/wiki/1/RedmineUpgrade

But when I do the first step, nothing seems to happen. My Redmine is installed at /opt/redmine

jcz@asterionella:/opt/redmine$ sudo svn update
Skipped ’.’
jcz@asterionella:/opt/redmine$

Thoughts?

OK, this is my first Ruby app and I’m not sure how ruby works yet.

Your second option would not help if they upgraded the DB, correct?

Topic: Redmine / Redmine 0.7.1

PS. do you think that you can provide an upgrade utility or instructions? We’ve started using it even though it was just an RC.

Topic: Redmine / Redmine 0.7.1

I’m watching this closely as we are using Redmine through Bitnami and it works fairly well (though we call delete PIDs to shut it down to apply settings).
