[Edit]Multi-server support

I tried to find something about what is missing for multi-server support. The best information seems to be on this page. But in Known Issues I read

File persistency mode removed as of JAMWiki 0.4.0. -- Ryan 17-Oct-2006 22:12 PDT

So I guess this is not important anymore? Are there any others points besides die file/image upload thing? Because in this case for our environment we would be able to use a multi-server installation--HB 26-Nov-2009 05:46 PST

I'll add a FAQ entry as soon as possible. Ehcache will need to be configured for a distributed cache, and someone will need to look at the Spring Transaction code to ensure that it will work when multiple app servers are accessing the same database. The Lucene configuration will probably also need updates to ensure that the search index is updated properly. As far as I'm aware no one has yet attempted to run JAMWiki in a distributed environment, so there could potentially be other issues, or everything might work perfectly - feedback would be appreciated. -- Ryan • (comments) • 26-Nov-2009 09:55 PST

[Edit]Incremental backup

Archived from the Feedback page:

We are interested in using a Wiki onboard of a research vessel, and in land at the same time. To sincronice both, we need incremental backups. My question is if JAMWiki has that feature.--mmeixide 18-Jan-2008 00:29 PST

--mmeixide 08-Feb-2008 00:40 PST There is no answer? :)--mmeixide 08-Feb-2008 00:40 PST

Sorry, I didn't see this question. I haven't used JAMWiki in this mode, so it isn't supported out of the box. The three things that would need to be synced if you wanted to try this are: 1) the database 2) the file upload folder 3) the search index (or you force the search engine to re-spider after each sync from Special:Maintenance). -- Ryan 08-Feb-2008 08:28 PST

[Edit]A too long page

I think that this page is just too long, and I don't think we should organize information in such a way. jack 20-Jul-2010 11:51 PDT

I've been thinking about deploying JIRA for bug-tracking and feature requests. I've held off on doing so mostly because I like the idea of having everything on jamwiki.org, but if there is interest I can look into getting that set up. Alternately it would probably be possible to divide bug reports and feature requests using categories, so for example there would be a feature request category and sub-categories under it to group individual features. Any suggestions are welcome. -- Ryan • (comments) • 20-Jul-2010 13:27 PDT
