1) What paths am I supposed to enter when being asked for "Server's Data Path" and "Default Configuration Path"? As I installed everything into /opt (following the Debian howto), I guess I can't follow the suggested paths that the Ubuntu-HowTo names.
Servers Data Path: this is the path were the actual files are stored. Useally this resides in /var/lib/ but it might as well be found /opt. The choice is yours. "Default Configuration Path": this is the path were your config files reside. On Debian useally /etc or, if you like /etc/simias. The choice is yours. 2) Is there a way to get iFolder running without simbias-server-setup? Can I
edit the config files directly, where are they supposed to be and are they documented?
3) How did it work before the existence of simbias-server-setup? The Debian
howto doesn't even mention this setup process, it just tells you to start simbiasserver. If anyone of you could answer some of these questions it would be of great help.
Good question. I actually installed a working iFolder a couple a months ago (februari last year I think). Back then there wasn't a simias-server-setup script: there was no ldap support, users (and admin) couldn't change their password. But it worked! --

Following the Debian howto I realized that it was completely out of date, many links did not work anymore, compilations did not work as suggested, etc. I updated the HowTo, up to the point where I get stuck myself: Under "Now to configure iFolder" there is point 2. where it asks you to start /opt/ifolder/bin/simiasserver Obviously, the file is now called simias-server, but it refuses to start, saying the server is not configured. Running the simias-server-setup brings up a lot of questions, none of which are answered by the Howto. Whatever I enter there (mainly following the HowTo for Ubuntu) brings up the error message --------------- Configuring ...Failed System.ArgumentNullException: Argument cannot be null.
