Hi Michael, Could you explain your fix to this issue with more detail? I am having the same problem. The default filemgr.properties file sets these two values to directories that do not exist (so I have to set them to 'something' valid). Here are the default settings:
# XML repository manager configuration org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.repositorymgr.dirs=file:///dir1,file:///dir2 # XML validation layer configuration org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.validation.dirs=file:///dir1,file:///dir2 And this is what I set them to: # XML repository manager configuration org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.repositorymgr.dirs=file://[FILEMGR_HOME]/policy/core # XML validation layer configuration org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.validation.dirs=file://[FILEMGR_HOME]/policy/core And I still get the error. Could you explain more about how I can work around this issue?
