Thanks so much for the advice Ate.
here's the skinny on my setup:
tomcat = 5.0.27
os = win xp pro
db = hsql
jdk = 1.4.2(-b28)
there are several errors in the logs, but the root
seems to be:
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to
initialize prefs api. java.lang.InternalError: Can't
instantiate Preferences factory
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl
at
org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesProviderImpl.start(PreferencesProviderImpl.java:114)

... 57 more
but this class is resident in
${CATALINA_HOME}/webapps/jetspeed/WEB-INF/lib/jetspeed-prefs-2.0-a1-dev.jar
thoughts?
