Wayne Babich commented on JS2-447: ---------------------------------- Thank you for the very quick response. I've been struggling with this for a while. BTW: Still has a problem if there is a pre-existing CATALINA_HOME environment variable, but that's easy to fix. Thanks again. > Documentation for using Installer doesn't work, and I can't find any > installation procedures that do work. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JS2-447 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-447 > Project: Jetspeed 2 > Type: Bug > Components: Installer > Versions: 2.0-FINAL > Environment: Windows XP SP2, with Tomcat > Reporter: Wayne Babich > Priority: Critical > > I am attempting to install Jetspeed-2 using the installer, not building from > source. > The instructions at > http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/getting-started-installer.html seem to > have no relationship to the actual software, and I can find no install > procedures that work. > For example: > -- The instructions say that I can download Jetspeed2.0-derby-install.jar. > But the actual download is a zip file that does not include any jar by that > name. I can find no installer. > -- If I unpack the downloaded zip file, I find an installpack.zip. However, > this appears to be a tomcat directory, not installation tools. Also, the > README and RELEASE-NOTES talk about JGOODIES, not jetspeed or tomcat., and > provide no guidance. > -- The installpack.zip contains two files called "zipsucks", one of which is > in webapps\jetspeed\WEB-INF\deploy, which interferes with the execution of > JetSpeed's war file under Tomcat. > -- If I unpack the installpack.zip and try to use it as a tomcat > installation, startup.bat fails because it uses my pre-existing CATALINA_HOME > (from a tomcat installation already running on my machine) > -- If I fix the above problems and startup tomcat, Jetspeed fails at Tomcat > startup due to SQLException: "No suitable driver". This cascades into a > springframework.beans.factory.Bean CreationException: Error creating bean > with name "jetspeedDS'. Presumably, this is happening because there is no > JDBC connection information to point to the pre-installed database (is it > Derby or Hypersonic?), and I can find no documentation on how to provide this > connection information. > Is there an intention that it should be possible to run JetSpeed 2 without > building it, or is it expected that everyone will build? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
