minor issues : typo, lesson builder bug, severe error while running jetty as a service

[pepemont]

Hello everyone, I just successfully uploaded and deployed this code on my own VPS (Ubuntu 16.04).

Just a few tips :

• there is a typo in Lesson.sql, line 8 : a final comma has to be removed from there ;
• lesson builder (http://www.openwords.org/lesson/lesson.html) is buggy : it emits [@] instead of [] for a blank item ;
• UploadSound works while running jetty from command line, but it fails while running jetty as a service. Setting 0777 permissions to /my_web_data/ etc. seems to solve the problem (but is it unsecure ?).

Hope this help !

Regards, Paul

Thanks Paul for the correction.

Regarding the Lesson builder, the openwords.org one is out-dated, the newer version is at our Openwords app server and this source code.

Please note that the cloudContextPath = "/my_web_data/" is only for the Openwords server at Openshift, if you want to develop locally, when you call getContextPath(boolean useExternal) method you will need to pass "false". For example: UploadSound.

Also a tip I just found out, our Openwords server only works with MySQL 5.7 for now, don't try MySQL 8 at all, it will break everything.
