Trying to get ofbiz up and running as a new install, though this isn't my first attempt (in the past, I got farther, but last attempt was a year ago or more). Running under Debian 5.0 and Ubuntu 9.10 with sun-java6-jdk installed from distribution repositories. Have downloaded ofbiz 4.0, 9.04, and trunk, unpacking each into their default separate directories under /opt.
With all three versions I see the same behavior. When I start them using ./startofbiz.sh, they go through the verbose startup procedure without apparent error (nothing in runtime/logs/error.log). When I connect to localhost:8080, I see nothing. Blank page. In runtime/logs/debug.log, there are some entries that read e.g. "characters( )" and "Pushing body text ' ' " but with a lot more spaces between the respective delimiters. Any ideas or suggestions? Do I need to be running jdk 1.5 instead? I saw conflicting instructions on that subject on the Net. -- Matt Warnock <[email protected]> RidgeCrest Herbals, Inc.
