localwiki on PowerPC

[Bill Leddy]

Hi All,

  I would like to set up a sort of special purpose localwiki site. It will be for a volunteer supported garden in Sacramento. The reason I want to create a  separate wiki rather than just add to SacWiki is that we want to manage the editors more and I have some ideas for special templates that will be pretty fussy for users without a little training. Sooo.....

  I'm trying to set up on a G4 MacMini using Ubuntu 12.10 as a single boot installation. Trying to make it a simple as possible. Unfortunately, sudo apt-get install localwiki  fails part way through with the following:

...

* (not running).
grep: character class syntax is [[:space:]], not [:space:]
* Starting Jetty servlet engine. jetty                                 
      Cannot find any VM in Java Home /usr/lib/jvm/default-java
* Jetty servlet engine started, reachable on http://adventure:8080/.
jetty                                                                   
         [fail] 
dpkg: error processing localwiki (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
status 1
Processing triggers for python-support ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
localwiki
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  Do you know if it will run on a PowerPC? I had an install running in a virtual machine on intel, but performance was very bad. Don't have an extra intel box to run on and the group has no money (well, I haven't asked yet) for hosing. I have static ips at my house so it seemed like an easy setup.

  Thanks for any suggestions you have.

Bill,

If you fill out the Expense Plan linked to from this page and send it back to me -- along with your hosting needs, I'll get you squared away.  This is one of the benefits of being a CfA Brigade!
