Thank you, Tobias & Greg. (Also, apologies if this should have been originally sent to matterhorn-users!)
First to Tobias' question: > did you install Matterhorn as a service? That part of the documentation is > likely outdated, as Jaime Hodge left this part of the documentation and > nobody contributed to it so far. To take an adopter's perspective in reading the docs: Not clear, based on the OS X documentation [1], if I was installing as a service. (For comparison, the Linux distro docs clearly notes running MH as a service [2].) Is it possible to run MH as a service on OS X? Is the language the same for OS X and Linux? Second, to Greg's offer: I've listed below the specific configurations that I had to add to my local machine in order to get Matterhorn 1.3 running on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. May be worth comparing with additional Mac OS X Lion users for further verification. -- A) Under Prepare, Item 4 Configure environment: the docs refer to .bash_profile but I think that MacPorts creates and references .profile . B) Under Run, Item 1: In creating /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.opencastproject.matterhorn.plist I had to leave the string for DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH empty. C) Edited /opt/matterhorn/felix/bin/start_matterhorn.sh and added '-Dgosh.args=--noi' to the JAVA_OPTS. (As mentioned in previous email) I hope that this helps!
