Scarab was running :)

After trying install scarab application for couple times, I have already done. What's matter about the problems are very not serious. Just only i wrong got the release version :). I never succesful when install version scarab-1.0-b17, but it was very fast and successful install on scarab-1.0-b20. These are step by step in my simple installation.
1. Dowloading scrab from scarab.trigris.org , rememeber lastest version is very recommended :)
2. Then extract on your directory , let's say SCARAB_HOME
3. Create build.properties, don't worry about it , you can just copy from template minimal.properties or project.properties. Official scarab recommended for first.
4. Set appropriate parameter value as you want and as you need
5. Go in SCARAB_HOME/build, then run ant deploy or just ant
6. You can fly with ant create-db for database preparation
7. To run on server, just go in SCRAB_HOME/tomcat/bin and run startup.bat. So you've done, wow :) just simple and great.

I am trying on WINDOWS so I don't know on other platform is as simple as on it. Oh I forgot it, before you try to install you must have already installed these application :
Ant 1.5 or greater and MySQL 4.1 or greater (the databases are optional, because you can use the others)
