[daisy] [JIRA] Created: (DSY-431) Daisy wiki wrapper script should check/wait 'smart' for the repository to run!

[Scott Warren]

I had a similar problem on Windows Machines there is a setting in the
Wrapper file that causes the wiki to delay for 30 seconds (I think it's
seconds)

	wrapper.startup.delay=30

Hope this helps.

I am not sure if this will work on linux as well? I would only assume it
would. 

Regards
