Hi Hilton,
Thanks for your quick reply. Actually, I have configured it using the
following command-
#Adding user
adduser tomcat7 dspace
adduser dspace tomcat7
#Setting permission
chown dspace:dspace -R /usr/local/dspace
chmod 0775 -R /usr/local/dspace
#Creating administrator account
usr/local/dspace/bin/dspace create-administrator
#setting up webapps
cd /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps
ln -sv /usr/local/dspace/webapps/oai
ln -sv /usr/local/dspace/webapps/sword
ln -sv /usr/local/dspace/webapps/solr
rm -rvf /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/ROOT
ln -sv /usr/local/dspace/webapps/xmlui ROOT
I have installed dspace many times by using this way. Never face any
problem in dspace version up to 4.1 but this time it doesn't work. I don't
think it is only directory issue.
