trying to make repository available on external port

We're using hippo enterprise edition 7.9.1 with tomcat 6.0.24 on centos 6.6

Our current instance is using oracle as an external repository, that's working fine but we're trying to replace this instance with another that does not use oracle because of reasons.

The first thing I did was to change the repository options to REP_OPTS="" That gives us a working instance of hippo, but the repository is no longer exposed on port 1099.

We need this port accessible because all of our import/export/backup tools and scripts are based on talking to the repository on this port.

I know we could just replace the oracle repository with mysql or postgres, but is it possible to expose the jackrabbit on this port without an external DB?

I've currently got the attached repository.xml to try and run it with just jackrabbit, but this is giving me a few errors, starting with

ERROR main [RepositoryImpl.<init>:366] failed to start Repository: Cannot instantiate persistence manager org.apache.jackrabbit.core.persistence.pool.DerbyPersistenceManager

repository.xml

Hi Jay,

are you just trying to expose the repository over RMI? In that case that's a setting usually placed in the context.xml file in tomcat.

Thanks Jeroen. Turns out I just needed to change the IP referenced in context.xml. With the previous setup it worked using the servers external IP, I had to change it to 127.0.0.1
