Hi Gary,
I am indeed using 1.5.1. Sorry about the confusion, but I confirmed that
Messages.properties is indeed in
/[my dspace-source]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/resources
I made sure the dspace user was the owner of both the dspace source and tomcat
directories, then followed the four steps you outlined successfully. But when
I attempted to define a context path in Tomcat for JSPUI and restarted Tomcat,
I got a 404 error when loading the dspace webpage with the message "The
requested resource () is not available." Undoing the change I made to the
tomcat server.xml file and copying the JSPUI webapp to Tomcat's webapps
directory worked, but my changes to Messages.properties still aren't reflected.
When changing the tomcat server.xml file, I also made sure to specify my dspace
install directory and that the changes were made within the host element.
FYI, changing the owner to the dspace user did indeed take care of those
"failure to delete" build errors I was getting.
You also mentioned trying the source release rather than the default release.
Would I be able to change my install to the source release without overwriting
my current configuration and data?
I appreciate all the help.
Cheers,
Eric

Hello again Eric,
This is a little puzzling, but I know I've been more than puzzled by
Messages.properties in the past. I don't like to be defeated by one
little flat file, so I'm going to ask a few more questions...
Firstly, it looks like and I'm assuming you are on 1.5.1. Correct?
The reason I asked if you had your Messages.properties in the
[dspace-source]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/resources/ directory was
that in your original email it was listed as
[Dspace-source]/modules/jspui/main/resources. So I'll just get you to
double check that directory for me.
Also, I haven't tried the default release but I couldn't find any
mention of .war files in the install instructions. Maybe you could try
one of the alternative deployment methods (see below). But first, can I
get you to confirm that you have followed each of these steps:
i) cd [dspace-source]/dspace
ii) mvn package
iii) cd target/dspace-[version].dir
iv) ant init_configs
Having followed these procedures, can you then either:
A) DEFINE A CONTEXT PATH IN TOMCAT FOR THE JSPUI
Add the following to your [tomcat-home]/conf/server.xml, within the
<Host> element:
<!-- DEFINE A CONTEXT PATH FOR DSpace JSP User Interface -->
<Context path="/jspui"
docBase="[dspace-install-directory]\webapps\jspui" debug="0"
reloadable="true" cachingAllowed="false"
allowLinking="true"/>
OR:
B) COPY YOUR JSPUI WEBAPP TO TOMCAT'S WEBAPPS DIRECTORY
cp -r [dspace-install-directory]/webapps/jspui [tomcat-home]/webapps/
AFAIK the default and source releases should behave the same in terms of
building and deployment, but someone else could confirm or deny this?
I look forward to your reply (or indeed anyone else's thoughts on this
issue).
Gary
P.S. Has the "failure to delete" error been resolved as a result of
permissions changes?
