hello DSpacers,
I am having trouble installing dspace with tomcat. I followed the
instructions in the dspace manual but there must be some important step/fact
I am overlooking. I hope someone can shed some light please.
In step 8 I tried adding the <context> directives to context.xml instead of
copying the webapps stuff over but tomcat did not seem to act on this at all
so in desperation I resorted to copying jspui over to webapps. That resulted
in tomcat trying to start it up but it failed with this error:
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(org.apache.commons.digester.Digester).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
INFO: Loading provided config file: ${dspace.dir}/config/dspace.cfg

By skipping ahead in the dpace manual I find at page 111 that when things
are working properly "org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.LoadDSpaceConfig servlet
is always loaded first". But I don't see that here. I think that maybe
LoadDSpaceConfig is supposed to wind up defining ${dspace.dir}.
Also the instructions do not seem to say anything about how tomcat is
supposed to pick up the several files in the dspace config directory. There
is more there than just dspace.cfg. For example there is the log4j config
file. Does this config directory need to be copied somewhere?
I see from the mailing list archives that I am not the only one to have this
problem. There is a similar post at
http://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/dspace-general/2008-July/002103.html. Now
this guy managed to fix his problem but it is not clear to me from the
posting how that was done.
I am using DSpace 1.5.1, Windoze XP, Tomcat 5.5 and java 5.
