Try Roller, It's Easy!
To make it easier for folks to try Roller, I have created a standalone Roller demo by bundling Roller with JSPWiki, Tomcat, and the tiny pure-Java HSQLDB database. Everything is preconfigured and ready to run. All you need to do to try Roller Is the following:
1. Download Roller-Demo-0.9.9.2.zip from sourceforge (AN 18MB Download)
2. Unzip The File Into A Directory on Your Hard-Drive (Directory Name Should Have No Spaces)
3. Ensure That The Java_Home Environment Variable IS set to point to your jdk
4. Ensure That Catalina_Home Is Not Set in your environment
5. To Start Roller, Either:
- On Windows: Open The Roller Bin Directory and Double-Click on Startup.bat
- on unix: cd to the roller bin directory, chmod x on all files, run ./startup.sh
6. Point Your Browser At http: // localhost: 8080
7. Login As Testuser1 / Testuser1, Admin / Admin, or Register As a New User
8. Get rollin '
