The Blog SampleRunning the Blog SampleNote: These instructions are for the current development stream of Aries. Instructions for older releases can be found here Instructions for the current release of Aries can be found here Create the OSGi platform for the Blog sampleDownload and build the development stream of Aries, see here cd samples/blog/blog-assembly/target mkdir load The full Aries build builds the blog sample by default, all of the platform pre-reqs will be available in the target directory. Create the load directory. This used to be done automatically by Felix file install, but in more recent versions yo have to create your own. Running the Blog sampleStart Aries in an OSGi framework (we're using Eclipse Equinox in this case) java -jar osgi-3.5.0.v20090520.jar -console The OSGi console should start up, the 'ss' command should show all of the platform bundles in state 'ACTIVE'. To run the blog application (.eba file) copy samples/blog/blog-jdbc-eba/target/*.eba into the load directory. Point your browser to http://localhost:8080/blog/ If you subsequently delete the .eba from the load directory the application will be uninstalled. Running the sample using a JPA persistence layerThe first blog sample application was written to use a JDBC persistence layer. There is a second application implemented to demonstrate the JPA capability To run the blog sample which uses the JPA persistence layer, start the OSGi framework as before, remove any previous copies of the blog sample from the target/load directory, then copy samples/blog/blog-jpa-eba/target/*.eba into the load directory. Finally, after typing 'refresh' at the OSGi console, point your browser at http://localhost:8080/blog/ . You should see something that looks precisely the same as the blog sample running with the JDBC persistence layer, but this time running using the JPA persistence layer.
