[WV] Issues with 1.1.157

Hi,

I just installed WV 1.1.157 on a WinXP SP3 machine. When I start
WebVelocity, the WV launcher window does not appear, and in the web
browser I get the following dialog box:

      A username and password are being requested by http://localhost:7777.
      The site says: "WebVelocity Development"

Using the task manager, I see WebVelocity.exe running in the
background, but nothing appears on the task bar. I tried uninstalling
and reinstalling WV, but I get the same problem.

Any suggestions?

The launcher window not appearing is intentional. It's part of being able to run on hosted systems that it doesn't use the GUI at all, and the functions for which you needed the launcher are available through the web UI. I'm not sure why it's asking you for a password, though.

WebVelocity 1.1?   That is an internal build, and is not even Alpha yet.  Try installing 1.0! which is released and supported!  :-)

Oh, as far as what to do, you might try running with the -gui command-line option, and maybe throw in a -doit "VisualLauncher new open", which should give you a VisualWorks GUI launcher, from which you can poke around to find out what it's doing.

Hi Mark,

it's a feature :-).

The release 1.1 of WebVelocity is required to run as a headless server
to be deployed on the Amazon elastic cloud. The classic GUI has been
replaced with a Web admin tool - therefore the user authentication.
The initial userid/password is admin/password, it can be changed in
the Configurations tab once you are logged in.

You can stop headless webvelocity running on Windows from the Task
Manager, or, if you get the latest (just announced) build 1.162, you
can do it from the Server menu of the Administration Console.
