transport a created formular from one server to another

Heinrich Götzger
Hi,

to export a created form from form-builder I can easily get it by
browsing the eXist-DB.

Using wget:
wget http://host:8080/orbeon/exist/rest/db/form_lesson/form1/form/form.xhtml

delivers me my complete form. Fine.

And now I'd like to include it in another instance of orbeon to use it
there, but just copying it in a directory and browsing to it does not
work, it stops with nasty NullPointerExceptions.

I created the directory:
~/apache-tomcat-5.5.28/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/apps/xforms-form

copied the file there

created a page-flow.xml:

<config xmlns="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/controller">

     <page path-info="*" view="form.xhtml"/>

     <epilogue url="oxf:/config/epilogue.xpl"/>

</config>

But it just won't start.

Where can I get information on how to get the form running?
What am I missing?

Thanks for your help

Cheers

Heinrich

Heinrich,

May I suggest you try creating a backup of the collection,
and then restore it to your other site.  You can use the
eXist admin GUI by running the Java Web start from the Launch
button on the lower left:

http://exist-db.org/

Form Runner looks to the eXist data store.  I am sure you
could move this to a file and alter the code to look to
file storage, but perhaps the first test is to move
the form without making code changes.

HTH,

Louis (Hank) Ratzesberger
