Description

Given that there are many different possible ways to install, there needs to be simple clear instructions for new users.

I have deployed the war file using the tomcat manager file after installing Tomcat, but have no idea where to put the jar files, where the class path is etc.

would anyone help please?

error "The javax.jcr.Repository interface from the JCR API could not be loaded. To resolve this issue, you need to make the jcr-1.0.jar available in the shared classpath of the servlet container."

What would really help is a little bit more information in the "First Hops" section for people who are not already familiar with Java/Tomcat/Jackrabbit
