Stuart,
many thanks, that worked like a charm. Never would have figured that
out. Not really used Tomcat before.

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Problem with DSpace-1.5.2 on Ubuntu
linux
Hi David,
I've recently installed DSpace. Build & install went
without a single error.
Excellent - that is often the trickiest bit.
I then copied the jspui directory to where Tomcat 6 is
looking:
/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps
Stopped & restarted Tomcat6, but the following error is
in localhost.2009-10-07.log:
DSpace has failed to initialize, during stage 2. Error
while attempting to read
the
DSpace configuration file (Path:
'/usr/local/dspace-1.5.2/config/dspace.cfg').
The file is there:
-rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6 68726 2009-10-06 17:19
/usr/local/dspace-1.5.2/config/dspace.cfg
Tomcat has a security manager which is often configured to be
pretty restrictive in terms of allowing applications to open files
outside of the tomcat installation folders.
The easiest solution (if this is what is causing the problem) is
to edit /etc/default/tomcat6 and addor edit the line about
TOMCAT6_SECURITY and set it to equal to 'no':
TOMCAT6_SECURITY = no
Alternatively you could edit the catalina policy file to only
provide read and write access to the relevant files, but unless you are
hosting other applications iwth security considerations on the same
server, turning security off should be fine.
I hope this helps,
