Chris, I have seen this problem when jetspeed.xml is not found or read correctly from conf/Catalina/localhost. Please verify that the jetspeed webapp is being initialized correctly.
Look for some line like this in catalina.out INFO: Processing Context configuration file URL file:/etc/tomcat5/Catalina/localhost/jetspeed.xml If jetspeed.xml is in webapps, then you need to set this property in your build.properties: org.apache.jetspeed.catalina.version.major=5 HTH, Randy -----Original Message----- From: Superman To: Hema Menon Cc: Jetspeed Users List Sent: 12/18/04 3:45 PM Subject: Re: Failed to initialize jetspeed. Hema, Thanks for the direction, however it seemed not to change the error so I resorted to downloading the latest version of Tomcat version 5.5.4 and compiled jetspeed2 and configured it to work with postgres database. I checked to make sure that the correct xml and properties files where in place to the best of my abilities and the information everyone has provided at the moment. All compiles well and the database scripts pre-populated the database but I get the same error I got with the JBOSS version when i use the url http://localhost:8080/jetspeed and it seems like the Datasource is not found from the error message below. I don't know enough about jetspeed yet to trouble shoot the problem. What configuration has to be in place in order for this lookup to occur properly?
