I have install Ubuntu 11.10 Server on an old computer and I trying to
get a local install of ODK Aggregate. I have run through the install
without a problem. Mysql and tomcat is running
When I go to http://wham:8080/ODKaggreate/ I get a 404 error
If I go to http:127.0.0.1 the webserver is working.
This is my first try at Ubuntu so I am sure I am missing something
easy.
Or I hope so
Thanks for any help

andy,
this is likely some form of dns configuration issue. that is, "wham"
is not resolving to whatever ip address your machine is. it's hard to
explain without knowing how your network is configured, but basically,
you need a fully qualified domain name...
if you are at home (you likely have a nat setup) and are trying to
connect to the server from another computer on the network, the
private ip of the server (likely something like 192.168.1.123) should
work. once you verify that is working, then try using the hostname of
the server to connect.
if you are outside your network (say at work) connecting to the server
at home, then your public ip (plus making sure you've enabled 8080
port forwarding on your router) should work. ideally, you should set
up some sort of dynamic dns server which would give you a fully
qualified domain (something like wham.dyndns.org).
all this is really hard to explain over email, so hopefully this gets
you closer to getting something working.

Please follow this ticket:
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/issues/detail?id=483
This is an issue with 1.0.3; until 1.0.4 is out, the solution is to install
1.0.2, configure a local Aggregate user with Site Admin privileges, then
upgrade to 1.0.3 and use that local user for configuration - signing in
with Google does not work in 1.0.3 on a Tomcat instance.
Or you can stay at 1.0.2 until 1.0.4 comes out.

Hi, andy
Please try this and lets see, we currently dont know your network settings, but from the look of things, is this local host (http:127.0.0.1) works then you try this lets see.
If you rename the war file (ODKAggregate.war) to "wham" before coping it to the webapps folder then you have to type this into your browser address bar,
2. http://127.0.0.1:8080/wham
If you still have errors then check to see if your java is intalled And u configure the path,
Make sure you configure mysql well.
