If Roller starts up fine but doesn’t find a front-page weblog then it will display the Completing Your Installation below that explains how to register your first user, create your first weblog and setup your site’s front page.

Create a user (the first will be admin) roller/blader
Create a weblog If you are using Roller to run a community of multiple weblogs, then you’ll probably want to display an aggregated front-page combining all weblogs on the site. In that case, create a weblog to serve as the front-page, set it as the front-page weblog and make sure you set the aggregated front-page setting on the Server Admin page.

handle: URL: http://www.pixoblog.de:8180/roller/blogs

Server administration: Handle of weblog to serve as frontpage blog: blogs Enable aggregated site-wide frontpage: yes Sichern

Frontpage, Ausloggen

Now that you’re done with the installation you should turn off Roller’s auto-installation system. Edit your roller-custom.properties file and set installation.type=manual. Then restart your server or Roller so that it accepts the new setting.

# nano ../../shared/classes/roller-custom.properties
