19 * Fill in each screen and hit Next on each.

27 1.1 Configure WebSphere
28
29 * WebSphere v6.1 does not have the PNG MIME type configured by default, so you need to do so. If you do not follow this step, you'll get a NullPointerException at com.xpn.xwiki.web.SkinAction.isJavascriptMimeType.
30 ** In the Console, expand Environment and select Virtual Hosts
31 ** Click on the default_host link (or whatever host you installed XWiki onto)
32 ** Click on the MIME types link
33 ** Click New to add a new MIME type
34 ** Fill out the form as follows:
35 *** MIME Type: image/png
36 *** Extensions: PNG png
37 * Hit OK, Save to the configuration, and restart the server.

39 1.1 Troubleshooting
40
41 * XWiki 1.0 contains a [bug>http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1113] that shows up as lots of messages in SystemOut.log which all say 'SRVE0238E: Resource paths should have a leading slash'. You can patch xwiki.jar or ignore them (it still works, just slower and fills up the log)")
