Hi Billy
I think you want to look at the web.xml file in WEB-INF, not the one in
conf - it's either the web.xml under:
[tomcat]/webapps/dspace/WEB-INF
Or:
[tomcat]/WEB-INF
I'm not sure which is the pertinent one - I suspect the former. In any
case, there should be reference to your dspace.cfg file in there -
something like:
<display-name>DSpace Web UI</display-name>
<!-- Configuration Information -->
<context-param>
<param-name>dspace-config</param-name>
<param-value>/usr/local/dspace/config/dspace.cfg</param-value>
<description>
The location of the main DSpace configuration file
</description>
</context-param>
.
.
.
Hope this helps
Regards
Gary

Thanks Graham. Here is one loop from repetitive output in
/var/log/tomcat5/catalina.out :
INFO: HTMLManager: start: Starting web application at '/dspace'
15-Nov-07 7:49:19 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error in dependencyCheck
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error getConfigured
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Context [/dspace] startup failed due to previous errors
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext stop
INFO: Container

15-Nov-07 7:49:21 PM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log
INFO: HTMLManager: list: Listing contexts for virtual host 'localhost'
Nothing in my /usr/share/tomcat5/conf/web.xml points to
/dspace/dspace.cfg -- should it? It almost looks like part of Tomcat
isn't loading? By the way, /tomcat5/webapps/dspace/ and
/tomcat5/webapps/dspace-oai/ directories do contain installation files.
I am not running SELinux, nor am I blocking any services or port 8080.
Could this be caused by a permissions-related issue?
Other Tomcat-related applications (such as jsp examples) are working.
