Thanks Christian. When I run http://<ipaddress>:8080, I get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". As best I can tell, Tomcat is running. I don't know much more about Tomcat to be able to troubleshoot further on my own. I get no errors when I start it using
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 start I installed Tomcat using Ubuntu's tomcat5.5 package. Initially, I had an error during installation * no JDK found - please set JAVA_HOME invoke-rc.d: initscript tomcat5.5, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing tomcat5.5 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: tomcat5.5 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Then, I realized that I had JRE (j2re1.4), not JDK, so I installed sun-java5-jdk package and reinstalled Tomcat. That seemed to work fine. I don't see a catalina.sh. I looked for it in /usr/local/tomcat, but I have no tomcat folder in local. Did I do the Tomcat installation wrong? On to your other questions... Yes ant-optional package is installed. When I copy the dspace*.war files to the webapps directory, they do not unpack. All I see are 2 war files, no dspace directory. Thanks for your help so far. -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Christian Voelker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 5:01 PM To: Peter Urban Cc: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Completed install but page cannot be displayed Am 15.10.2007 um 21:39 schrieb Peter Urban: > when we launch a browser and try to access the site usinng http:// > <ipaddress>:8080/dspace, we get a 'page cannot be displayed' message. What do you get under http://<ipaddress>:8080 ? The Tomcat Homepage? So, is Tomcat actually running? If not, stick with this problem. Can you start it manually using catalina.sh? If this is not your issue, did you get any error msgs during your ant fresh-install? (ant-optional pkg is installed?). Does your automatic deployment work properly? So, if you drop your dspace.war into the webapps dir, does it get unpacked to a dspace subdir to the webapps dir? You are not yet at the point where the trouble with the database and the jdbc connector usually starts ;-) - no, sorry, I did not say that, I do not want you to shy away. There is really no reason to do so, just work through it step by step with getting tomcat up and running being the very first of them.
