https://answers.launchpad.net/acewiki/+question/121205 is missing at launchpad. Does anyone know the address of the acewiki server on the suse CD?
The archive Amazon EC2 image of Version 0.5.3 AceWiki_Server.i686-0.5.3.ec2.tar.gz appears to be corrupted. Otherwise, a very interesting tool. Thanks a lot.
Although I’ve tried many times over the months attempting to download the VMware image version fails.
Can you give more information on how it failed and at which point? Do you use VMware or VirtualBox? Do you get any error messages?
I downloaded the CD image and running on my GNU/Linux box as a virtual OS. It seems to be running perfectly. Since no browser client is included in that CD image I am unable to access the webappliance. Nor could I install any, since yum installer is also not present. How to deal with this situation?
The appliance is a minimal version of an AceWiki server. It deliberately contains no GUI packages (no graphical shell or browser).
You should access it from the outside, i.e. from another (virtual or physical) computer. The CD image is probably not the best way to use it. I would suggest to use VMware or VirtualBox to run it as a virtual machine and then to access it from a browser of the host computer. You might need to set some parameters to make this work. Here I described what is necessary when using VirtualBox:
https://answers.launchpad.net/acewiki/+question/121205This reply for record. I managed to redirect the host port to the guest os in Virtual Box using the tips posted here: https://answers.launchpad.net/acewiki/+question/121205. Thanks.
It was my oversight. I now have root access. The system is working as expected.
A great tool to learn about the formalism of knowledge representation.
