Trying to setup the ODK manage server but i seem to get stuck on the
same step all the time.
i did edit the application name to the one i signed up with including
the allowed users but have failed to save
whatever i have added and i also get stuck on step " 5 " that involves
getting to the terminal.
any ideas on how else i can go by this??
Edit {odk-manage}/war/WEB-INFO/appengine-web.xml, and insert your
appengine application name in the Application field.
Edit {odk-manage}/war/WEB-INFO/appengine-web.xml, and edit the list
of allowed users in the allowedUsers system property. This is a
comma-, space- or semicolon- delimited list of email addresses. An
attempt is made to sanity-check the list for badly-formed e-mails upon
receipt of the first well-formed request to the Manage server. If any
email address in the list is invalid, all access to the server will be
denied.
In the terminal, go to the folder where you installed the Google
App Engine SDK (it will probably be called google_appengine). Type .
\appcfg.cmd update {odk-manage}\war in Windows or ./appcfg.sh update
{odk-manage}/war in Unix/Mac. You will be prompted for your gmail
address and password. After entering them, it should successfully
install the ODK Manage Server.
On Windows, type "cmd" in the "Search programs and files" box on the Start
Menu. Windows should then present the "cmd.exe" program in the filtered
start menu; click that to start a terminal window.
On Mac, in the Finder search field, type "Terminal" and open the "Terminal"
application.
On Linux, search for "terminal" This should bring up "xterm" and usually one
other application. You can use either one.

manage isn't actively supported so if you are not a developer, there
will likely be more challenges to overcome.
what do you mean you are having problems saving. are the changes to
the file appearing on your local file system?

we can't offer much more help. i believe the instructions are correct.
if they don't make sense, then i'd recommend finding a developer to
donate an hour or so to help -- perhaps someone at makerere?

You should be able to use Notepad for editing the files and saving them.
If you can open these files in Notepad but cannot save the changes, it is
likely that you placed the files in an area of the file system that has
heightened security and requires Administrator access to make changes. In
this case, go to the Start menu / Accessories and right-click on Notepad.
Choose "Run as Administrator" You should now be able to open the files,
edit them, and save them.
