fuseki webinterface does not show datasets

Question

I have installed fuseki and start the server with

#!/bin/sh    
cd /home/frank/localInstall/jena/apache-jena-fuseki-2.5.0
exec /home/frank/localInstall/jena         


        

Answer 1

The problem was not with the config file, but with the default shiro.ini file in .../apache-jena-fuseki-2.5.0/run/shiro.ini. The default values do only allow local access and my access was a server. The instructions to change are clear enough. Here the relevant parts after the change:

[users]
# Implicitly adds "iniRealm =  org.apache.shiro.realm.text.IniRealm"
admin=passXXX  ## changed 

[roles]

[urls]
## Control functions open to anyone
/$/status = anon
/$/ping   = anon

## and the rest are restricted to localhost.
##/$/** = localhostFilter  ## commented out

## If you want simple, basic authentication user/password
## on the operations, 
##    1 - set a better password in [users] above.
##    2 - comment out the "/$/** = localhost" line and use:
"/$/** = authcBasic,user[admin]"  ## enabled, removed ##

I assume that it is explained somewhere and I read it and forgot it when I moved from my localhost installation to a server. It would be helpful if the interface would indicate that permissions are not given in stead of inviting to select a dataset.
