Thanks! That was the Problem. In downloaded postgresql-8.2-506.jdbc4.jar instead of postgresql-8.2-506.jdbc3.jar! After replacing this. Starting the PostgreSQL (I solved my access problem with pgadmin), saying 'ant clean' and 'ant fresh_install' and I got finally the message 'BUILD SUCCESSFUL'!
Thank You all Robert PS @Christian: Tanks to the offer to contact You directly in mother tongue. But I agree to You that the discussion over the list is better to the benefit of all. :-) ----- Christian Voelker schrieb: > Hello, > > Am 25.10.2007 um 12:51 schrieb Robert Roggenbuck: > >> I'd like to install DSpace to check whether we can use it for our >> planned OA-Repository.
