Well OK, I may have tried to bite off more than I can chew here.... I am trying to
upgrade my server from running on Win98 to
Win2000 and I thought I would grab the latest version of James and try a port it to
Win2000 as well. Not going well, and I admit I
am unfamiliar with Win2000 also...
1. First let me report what I think may be an installation problem with the release
candidate of James and will be interested in
hearing feedback on this as well. I have a bunch of mailets and jar files to support
them and I stashed these in my James/lib
directory. But I had a heck of a time trying to figure out why James was crashing
after I ported all my config.xml code over! I
finally was able to track the problem down to what is apparently a misconfiguration
??? of the places where some of the needed jar
files were being placed. I found them in James/work/James-1038102691318/SAR-INF/lib
and when I copied all these jar files over to
the James/lib directory it made James a lot happier and it now "appears" to be coming
up OK.
This was a tough problem to track down as the stack walkbacks one gets are very
misleading. SO I might suggest that before you
release the next version of James this configuration ought to be cleaned up, or at
least well documented! (and IMHO that is a
horrible name for a directory that James is placing these jar file in!!! I refer to
James-1038102691318.) ;-)
2. Even though James is appearing to come up OK now, it is still not functioning OK. I
tried to telnet to port 4555 and the telnet
session hangs and eventually times out without succeeding. When I bring up a mail
client to try and receive mail, I get a popup
dialog asking me to enter my user id and password. I am using SMTP authorization, but
it is not accepting the user id or password
even though I know them to be correct. Telneting to the POP3 port on 110, or the SMTP
port on 25 also fails to make a connection. Of
note, I do use MySQL for a database for James, and I think it is working OK... I am
able to connect to it from across my LAN using
dbVisualizer and it responds as expected. Am I facing some Win2000 issues here that I
don't understand? Any help would be much
appreciated, and I will continue to poke around at it...
3. One last item of note... I noticed that when I close James down (BTW much much
cleaner now!) I am getting a stack walkback in the
phoenix.log file which I include below....
