Re: [Hypercontent-users] CASIFY Hypercontent - issue

[tom t. <j_l...@ya...>]

Hi Alex,

If I need a staging area, cant I have the same
Hypercontent server to final publishing rather than
publishing it some other server. For example if I have
project called my-project can't we have a staging area
in the same project it self.

Is there any performance issues(when concurrent users
goes up) if we select Hypercontent server as the final
server to serve the content. Should we only consider
Hypercontent for authers and publishers (limited
users)

Is there any sample demo to see the life cycle with
some xml and stylesheet approach.

I observed some discrepancies while inserting some
images just see following are bugs or not....

I am using a war file approach rather than using HC
inbuilt tomcat server. I created a war file called
hypercontent.war and deployed on our existing tomcat.

I have a very primitive projectdefinition.xml as
listed below. When I tried to edit the html and insert
an image using the editor, it does not inser the
current relative path. it appends only /someimage.jpg
but it should be idealy
/hypercontent/my-project/someimage.jpg
When I changed this file in the text mode it works.
