Helix,
Ah, so you're right. For the record, I had been comparing our configs to
those in the dspace-3.0 release in preparation for upgrading from 1.8. I
pulled over some new syntax changes, including what I thought were defaults
in the new config file, such as db.maxconnections. Defining them as listed
in 3.0's dspace.cfg[1] resulted in a build error:
BUILD FAILED
/home/aorth/src/git/DSpace/dspace/target/dspace-3.0-build/build.xml:88:
Property db.maxconnections was circularly defined.
... so I left it blank (or commented it out, I can't remember now). That's
how I ended up with the weird Cocoon crashes.
Anyways, I'm now up and running. If you think it's worth it, I'll submit a
bug report / pull request so we can hopefully stop others from running into
this same error?
Cheers,
