6. Fix WordPress problems - 2 current issues:
+
−
+
−
Fix, the first:
+
−
+
−
Remove the trailing '-' on line 101 of /webapps/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-formatting.php :
+
−
/webapps/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-formatting.php:102:
+
−
-$text is an invalid left-hand side of an assignment. in

−
functions-formatting.php:101: $text = preg_replace('/&([^#])(?![a-z1-4]{1,8};)/','&#038;$1', $text);-
+
−
+
−
Fix, the second:
+
−
+
−
Open the file /webapps/wordpress/wp-includes/class-snoopy.php
+
−
and re-save it as UTF-8 if it is not already in UTF-8.  (Required for Mac OS X, as the file opens
+
−
as "Western (Mac OS Roman)" by default).
+
−
+
−
7. Start the Resin snapshot and run the installation wizard
+
−
<http://localhost:8080/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php>. 
+
−
You'll see numerous exceptions where WordPress is looking for a table that doesn't exist.  These will
+
−
continue throughout the wizard then stop forever once you're all set up.
+
−
+
−
8. Shut down the Resin snapshot and move your webapp to resin-3.0.19
+
−
+
−
9. Start resin-3.0.19 and visit your blog:  <http://localhost:8080/wordpress/>
