                 iEat - Internet recipe database
             Live Demo @VERSION@ @BUILD_DATE@
=======================================================================

This is the Live Demo distribution of iEat. This is a complete 
stand-alone iEat application pre-configured to run without any 
modification so you can see how iEat works. The only thing you need
besides the Live Demo (which you have if you're reading this) is a
Java 5 Runtime Environment (i.e. version 1.5) or higher. You can get a
JRE from Sun at http://java.sun.com/. Other vendors make JREs, any one
of them should work as long as they are version 1.5 or higher.

Starting the Live Demo  -----------------------------------------------

To start iEat simply run './start.sh' or '.\start.bat' script (as 
appropriate for your operating system). This will start the iEat 
application running with the included servlet container. After a brief 
moment you should be able to go to the following URL in a browser:

  http://localhost:8080/ieat

If you get an error that the JAVA_HOME environment variable is not 
defined, you need to set this environment variable, which varies 
depending on the operating system you're using. For Unix-like OSes 
using sh-derived shells you can run

  $ JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk ./start.sh
  
For Windows users you can run

  > set JAVA_HOME=\path\to\jdk
  > .\start.bat
  
From the iEat homepage you can browse recipes. The first time you 
start the Live Demo, however, there will not be any recipes available.
To add recipes you must log in and add or import recipes.
  

Stopping the Live Demo  -----------------------------------------------

To stop iEat simply run './stop.sh' or '.\stop.bat' script (as 
appropriate for your operating system).


Logging into the Live Demo --------------------------------------------

The Live Demo comes configured with an admin-level user so you can log 
into the application and add recipes, users, etc. Log in with the 
following information:

  Username: demo
  Password: demo
  

Limitations of Live Demo ----------------------------------------------

The Live Demo has some limitations from a regular iEat configuration:

  - Self registration is disabled. Because registration requires 
    configuring an SMTP mail server to send emails with this feature 
    has been disabled. If you want to enable it, you must edit the 
    
    <LIVE DEMO HOME>/jakarta-tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/ieat.xml
    
    file and change the value of the 'mail.smtp.host' property to a 
    valid SMTP server you can send emails from. Then run the setup
    wizard (Admin > Setup Wizard) to enable the Registration Feature.

    
Troubleshooting the Live Demo -----------------------------------------

If you run into problems getting the Live Demo running, look at the 
<LIVE DEMO HOME>/jakarta-tomcat/logs directory for the application log 
files. They may provide clues as to the cause of the problem.
