Thanks, Ray, but I do have the HSQLDB server 1.7.1 running, and that is the message I'm getting. I suspect there may be a configuration, driver, or classpath issue, but I can't identify what's wrong.
As for "the readme document on the downloads page", I can't find anything with that name. I do find a page at "http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/getting-started.html" that purports to help a user get going, but it is chock-full of unstated assumptions and consequently very confusing. If the readme document you refer to is somewhere else, I will be grateful if you can pin down exactly where it can be found. -- Charles Knell [EMAIL PROTECTED] - email -----Original Message----- From: Ray Clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sat, 12 Mar 2005 19:05:20 -0800 (PST) To: Jetspeed Users List <jetspeed-user@jakarta.apache.org> Subject: Re: Getting Jetspeed started on Windows I got the same error. It sounds like you didn't start the database. Shutdown Tomcat, go to the jetspeed-database directory and double click on start-database. Then start Tomcat. I believe that your URL will bring up Jetspeed then.
