Hi Jake, In your catalina.log there are a large number of "SEVERE" errors which are the main problem (s). Most of them seem to say something like:
"Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The main resource set specified [C:\dspace\webapps\ROOT] is not valid" This sounds to me like, as Sean just noted, you *may* have a "double deployment" issue. I wonder if you've made so many changes that your <Host> appBase and your <Context> docBase no longer match up. Could you revert out your changes and start fresh with just a [tomcat]/conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml ? Or, could you share more of your current configuration with us? It seems like it's essentially "confused" Tomcat into not knowing how to start your webapps. Also, since you look to be using Windows, you may want to change any backslashes (\) to forward slashes (/). So, in your Tomcat configs, use paths like "C:/dspace/webapps/xmlui" instead of "C:\dspace\webapps\xmlui". In many Java applications (including DSpace), forward slashes are recommended, no matter what Operating System you are using. - Tim On Wed, Oct 31, 2018 at 12:15 PM Cameron, Jacob <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Tim, > > > > I’ve attached the tomcat and catalina logs.
