When does this error occur, during `ant fresh_install`? If so, you probably just need to drop and recreate your database. *N.B. I'm assuming you don't have anything in there yet!* As the dspace user (who owns the database): dropdb dspace createdb -U dspace -E UNICODE dspace Then run the ant command again from within your target/dspace-build.dir/.
