This is the problem. When you run ant fresh_install it tries to do everything, including populating the database. All you need to do on machineweb2 is ant update (and maybe ant init_configs). You shouldn't need to do anything to the database structure on machine1. cheers, Jim > (3) Based on your suggestion, i feel it is due to database structure existing > with "machine1" since it was installed with postgresql, java,tomcat, and > DSpace software initially . > (4) In this case shall i remove the items already imported or drop the > database.
