Moving from win to linux

Amos-15
Hi All,

Probably a stupid question, but are there any particular caveats when
moving from a windows-based environment to a linux-based one?

After many months of not touching Seaside/Squeak (lack of time, not
lack of interest... *sigh*) I tried moving my image (image file +
changes file) from Win2k to my Ubuntu machine, and all the code I'd
written ages ago survived intact. However, the local seaside app
refuses to render the pages with the images and stylesheets as it
still does in Win2k (although the path in the source looks ok). Where
there are hardcoded slashes, they're forward slashes, which seems to
work in both environments.

I'm guessing it's something simple, but I feel like I can't see the
woods for the trees...

Cheers,

Amos

Hi,

Few things to check (and apologies in advance if they are patronising)

1. Check that the relevant FileLibrary subclass has been kept in
/seaside/config

2. Have you copied the images (jpg/png/gif/etc) and css/script files as
well as the *.image/*.changes?

3. Try using "FileDirectory slash" instead of hard-code '/' string/char.

4. Has your linux VM got the necessary plugins and prims compiled?

HTH,

John.

Are you doing manual startup of WAKom? And you
added file serving for the HTTP Server in order
to deliver your files? You probably need to restart
the whole thing as there might be a windows path
still active in one of those objects.

In reply to this post by Sebastian Sastre-2
Wow, thanks for all the responses, guys. I'd forgotten how helpful
this mailing list is compared to the others I'm used to... ;-)

Anyway, I went back and double-checked all my code, couldn't find
anything, and finally took a closer look at the script in my workspace
to stop and restart WAKom... and noticed that I had a hardcoded
backslash in there:

moduleAssembly
        documentRoot: FileDirectory default fullName, '\www';
        directoryIndex: 'index.html index.htm';
        serveFiles.

instead of something like (FileDirectory default directoryNamed:
'www') fullName... (doh).

Appreciate all your help, happy Smalltalking all!
