Sorry our documentation is still a bit behind. We wanted to get the code out to others soon, so people could start using it.

Below is the contents of the manifest.yml that we use to push the application. You need the cloudfoundry-buildpack-java to run the application. I will check in my manifest, so people can use that to push the application.

applications:

• name: styx memory: 1G instances: 1 url: console.${target-base} path: target/styx-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.war buildpack: git://github.com/cloudfoundry/cloudfoundry-buildpack-java.git

I have pushed our manifest.yml. Please do a git pull and a cf push --reset to redeploy the application. You should see that the cf push uses the manifest to select the correct buildpack.

Ok working now. Thanks.

I think the url field is no longer supported and can be removed.

I already thought as much, as the url field is ignored during the push.

Good to hear you have got it up and running.
