[Cubicweb] Adding new cubes to the distribution

[Fletcher, John P]

Nicolas

Thank you very much.  I think at some point I had not set the CW_MODE correctly and therefore the create command would not work without sudo.  I used sudo because it worked and created an instance under control of root.  I am learning the system at the moment so I have put up with that, but now want to be able to move over to the user mode.

I am very excited by what I see in cubic web.  I installed the intranet cube as I saw it had a lot of cubes all working together and I need some examples.  I began to see how tags can help the system make suggestions.  I am wanting to build intelligent systems which can use semantic web cabability in a way which I have only seen talked about up to now.

Thanks again - I will keep the questions coming.

John

Then 'sudo cubicweb-ctl create intranet myintranet' is not what you
are looking for, since it means executing cubicweb-ctl in system mode
(aka as root) and using the cubes from /usr/share/ and putting config
files in /etc/cubicweb.d/.

For development, you want to use CW_MODE=user as detailed by
http://docs.cubicweb.org/admin/setup.html#cubicweb-resources-configuration

BTW, the default is all-in-one, so you may want not to lose time
typing it when creating a new instance.

Please keep asking questions, we are always happy to help out new
users.
