Hello,
There is [dspace] which is where the binary DSpace is installed to. This
[dspace] directory contains: assetstore, bin, config, etc, exports, lib,
log, reports, search, sitemaps, solr, upload, webapps.
This is usually something like c:\dspace on Windows or /dspace on Linux.
Your servlet container (Tomcat) will use the webapps located in
[dspace]/webapps/, and you can run [dspace]/bin/dspace create-administrator
There is also [dspace-source], which is what you download from SourceForge
(or SVN or Github). It will contains a package named something like
dspace-1.7.1-src-release.
This is usually something like c:\users\myuser\dspace-1.7.1-src-release on
Windows, or /home/myuser/dspace-1.7.1-src-release on linux.
You can do:
[dspace-source]:$ mvn package
and
[dspace-source]/dspace/target/dspace-1.7.1-build.dir$ ant update
So when you are running:
C:\dspace\dspace-1.7.1-src-release\dspace\bin>dspace create-administrator
That looks like it is the equivalent of: [dspace-source]/bin/dspace which
won't work. I would suggest moving the directory dspace-1.7.1-src-release to
somewhere outside of c:/dspace, such as
c:/users/myuser/dspace-1.7.1-src-release. You don't need to move it, but it
will make more sense when [dspace-source] isn't inside of [dspace].
You should be running [dspace]/bin/dspace, which means trying running:
c:/dspace/bin/dspace create-administrator

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a

threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
