Subject: Re: orion on unix
Are you trying to start orion on port 80?
In UNIX-based systems ports 1-1024 are called "privilaged ports" and can
only be bound to as user root. Try changing the port to 8080 or something
else above 1024 in ~/config/default-web-site.xml.
Now you are going to tell me that it has to be bound to port 80 and you
really don't want to run it as user root for obvious security reasons.
This discussion belongs to the "how to start orion without being root," of
which there are many solutions that can be found by searching through this
list archive.
cheers,
sach
