That worked!!!!! Thank you for your help. strange that all it was, was the dbname. weird that ait half installed and failed with a unhelpful error.


Now, i get a white page. i think my tomcat may be broken. ( have assigned the webapps to be /dspace/webapps)

the page is:
http://78.129.197.42:8080/

it either gets 'the connection was reset' or a white page with no source.

anyone got an idea?

Chris

Hi Chris,

AFAIA, the only two allowed values for db.name are "postgres" or "oracle". The actual name of your dspace database is spelt out in the db.url parameter. Can you confirm that this is the case?

Cheers
Gary

I have not got a dspace install, i am installing a new fresh copy.

running ant clean_database game me the following:
clean_database:

it mentions soem erros in my sspace.cfg, btu the details in there are correct for the database. and when i use the fresh_install i get warnings saying the table already exists. why does the install script get access to the db but not the clean_database one?

Hi Chris,

if you already used ant fresh_install and want to use it again run ant
clean_database to clear the db and then ant fresh_install.

If you successfully set up a fresh install and want to update it use
ant update and/or ant init_configs.

Hope that helps
