Thanks for the help thus for. I have browser access! As somebody mentioned prior, I needed to append index.jsp (for some reason tomcat was only searching for index.html and not proceeding to look for other index files, I guess I'll have to check the config).
The site provides sql for a sample store application. Where is the code for this application? Is there a config file that will allow me to tell this application how to connect to the database? Basically, I'm trying to get a feel for what slide has out of the box and what the end user sees. Is there a better way to view a demo of the content management in action? I'm anticipating something that will allow a user to alter a web page, lock the page, process approvals, etc. Did I misinterpret the purpose of Slide? -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Werner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 2:30 PM To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: RE: totally lost Try looking at the log files to see if any errors were reported during startup. They can be found at $CATALINA_HOME/logs (i.e. /path/to/jakarta-slide-install/server/logs). Make sure port 8080 is not already in use. If port 8080 is free, tomcat with slide should start up and a basic info page should be present at http://localhost:8080. What type of error page is being shown? Is it a browser error page, or a tomcat/slide error page?

I downloaded the binary distribution (jakarta-slide-1.0.16.tar.gz), unpacked it onto a Solaris box, and haven't made much progress. For fun I ran server/bin/startup.sh, and it seemed to start ok development# ./bin/startup.sh Guessing CATALINA_HOME from catalina.sh to ./bin/.. Setting CATALINA_HOME to ./bin/.. Using CLASSPATH: ./bin/../bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/java/lib/tools.jar Using CATALINA_BASE: ./bin/.. Using CATALINA_HOME: ./bin/.. Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/java When I visit 8080, it says "The requested resource (/index.html) is not available." So I'm figuring a doc root needs to be set somewhere. Am I missing some files that provide step by step to run an example application? I'd like to get a feel for slide, but didn't really want to commit hours on hours to get it running.
