Hi Antonio. In the normal course of things, you should never need to
point your browser at a Backstage serves since it only serves JSON,
not HTML.
Instead, you will (typically) point your browser at port 80 of the
same host where you will need to be running a Web server that serves
the Exhibit HTML. Then - as described in the authoring page on the
wiki - you link in the scripts and data in that HTML.
You're not the only one to raise this point, and I tried to clarify it
in the wiki, but apparently not well enough. Any input on a better way
to describe this would be gratefully received!
Thanks.

architecture. I am trying to evaluate it through examples, but i'm not
able to make it work for my own.
After your advise i ve put the e3src/exhibit3/scripted/demos/ on
apache2 server when backstage jetty server runs on port 8181 (Starting
Butterfly at 'http://127.0.0.1:8181/').
But when i browse to for instance http://localhost/demos/senate/senate.html,
i can see nothing, and the source code says:
<script src="../src/exhibit-api.js">
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /demos/src/exhibit-api.js was not found on this
server.</p>
<hr>
<address>Apache/2.2.17 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80</address>
</body></html>
</script>
I know that i'm doing something wrong, but i don't know what wiki
follow, after the building backstage wiki.

Ah, those are the "scripted" mode demos and won't work as-is for
"staged" mode (i.e. Backstage).
Backstage doesn't have any stock demos right now, but we've been
meaning to check in those currently hosted at
http://databench.zepheira.com into the github repository... so, I've
gone ahead and checked in one of them, including HTML & data;
https://github.com/zepheira/backstage/tree/master/demos/sweden-europeana
You'll have to point the HTML at your Backstage instance instead of
ours to serve the scripts, and of course first upload the data using
the directions on the Wiki, but that should hopefully get you started.
Mark.
