[Opensim-dev] [OpenSim-dev] First time setup of OpenSim - paths to configure

[Ai Austin]

I am finding out more works than we indicate when going through the 
various .ini setup files.. initially for Standalone configurations.. 
but I plan to follow with MySQL and grid setups.

The comments in config-include/StandaloneCommon.ini.example indicate 
that the various [GridInfoService] settings for these 5 things are 
"currently used".
    *     welcome =

    *     about =

    *     register =

    *     help =

    *     password =
However, they all work fine and properly communicate the values to 
the grid managers on several viewers I have tested.

The undocumented [GridInfoService] "message" URL also works on both 
standalones and Robust grids.

DestinationGuide does NOT seem to work for standalones, but works 
fine for Robust grids.  Any idea why that might be the case 
@BlueWall, as I think you implemented that part?

As I mentioned before groups, OfflineIM and some errors with 
UserProfiles all mean these don't work on my tests with 
Standalones/SQLite.. though I am not sure if that is because they are 
not meant to work, or that I am not following instructions correctly, 
or the instructions are misleading for the Standalone/SQLite case.

@Diva, would we expect your core provided Groups V2 and Offline IM 
V2  to work with Standalone/SQLite?  Errors are thrown that "no 
storage interface for SQLite is in the module".  So maybe MySQL is 
compulsory for these addon features?  If so a comment to that effect 
may be all that is needed, as the current instuctions imply the 
modules work with Standalones and don't specify a specific data base 
must be used.

@BlueWall, would you expect UserProfiles to work with 
Stanalone/SQLite setup?  I reported a mantis issue on this if it 
should work. http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=7704

Thanks for your patience everyone and I hope you don't mind too much 
if I finish off my questions and get comments for fixes via this 
list. They are a bit too broad to make a whole series of Mantis 
entries for except where I come across specific errors in my tests.
