Starting with Magnolia (Training)

Hey,

I'm new to magnolia and on this site, you can make a training:
http://www.magnolia-cms.com/support-and-services/training.html

But I want to learn it by my self so I think the technical guide is the first place to go.

But when I look at the topics, there are different to the "Standard Training Curriculum"

Does the technical guide includes this topics? Is it enough to read and understand the technical guide, or
are there more important sources?

Beste regards,
jrost

internationalized NodeData

I want to store an internationalized attribute. AFAIS Magnolia uses the 
convention attributeName_isoCode. If I want to store the name in two languages 
I have to create the NodeData objects with the names "name_de" and "name_en". 
Plus there exists the exception "name" as a fallback?

Is there a convenient API which wraps around this convention?

Re: Starting with Magnolia (Training)

Hi jrost,

You can learn independently for sure. Lots of people have. Where to start depends on how much you know about
content management and Java webapps. 

Start with the [url=http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/technical-guide.html]Technical
Guide[/url] if you are a system architect or are evaluating different systems. It gives you a walkthrough
of the technology used in Magnolia CMS. The topics are not exactly the same as in the training but much is
common. To find out whether Magnolia CMS has the features you need, see also
[url=http://www.magnolia-cms.com/magnolia-cms/features.html]Features[/url] and [url=http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/modules.html]Modules[/url].

Start with [url=http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/editing/quick-guide.html]Quick Guide to
Creating a Site[/url] if you are the type that prefers to get hands dirty and learn by doing. From there, go
to [url=http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/templating.html]Templating[/url]. Try the
[url=http://www.magnolia-cms.com/magnolia-cms/demo.html]online demo[/url] too.

If you want to develop your own Magnolia modules and customize the system, attending a training class would
be a good idea. Look at
[url=http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/developing.html]Developing[/url] for dev setup instructions.

Oracle 11g

Hi,

I am using Oracle as the Persitence Manager and every time I restart the webapp server (TOMCAT or JBOSS), the
Magnolia application ask me to reinstall the modules.

The magnolia.repositories.home is outside the webapp.

Thank you in advance for your help !

Eric

Re: Starting with Magnolia (Training)

Thank you very much for your fast and helpful answer. I read the Technical Guide and now I will took a look at
the Features and Modules like you suggest. Also I will took a closer look the the STK and then start to create
my first Site :)

Re: Oracle 11g

Essentially, that must mean the repository is lost, one or another, and thus recreated at startup. If
Magnolia doesn't find nodes under /modules/ in the configuration workspace, it assumes the module it's
looking for needs to be installed (which is correct).

If you create content, say, in the website workspace, it's also lost after a restart, right ?

If so, I'll go ahead and assume there's something wrong with your configuration, but without further
details, it's hard to guess ;) Aren't you log files giving you any clue ? Otherwise, log files and
configuration files would help. Use something like pastie.org or some uploading service if you want to
share them.
