My apologies in advance if this is the wrong place to come for support but it seemed the most likely on the website. I have also looked in the wiki link.
Using the information at http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/getting-started-installer.html I downloaded the derby install jar and installed on a Windows 2000 system. This system already has tomcat 5.5. on it. After the installation I had another tomcat installation with added jetspeed files and directories. According to the wiki entry, I was also supposed to have a jetspeed-database directory, which I do not have. Anyway, I then run the startup.bat - all goes well with odd warnings and infos until I get the following errors java.lang.InternalError: Can't instantiate Preferences factory java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl at java.util.prefs.Preferences.<clinit>(Preferences.java:204) etc etc org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'java.util.prefs.PreferencesFactory' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/assembly/prefs.xml]: Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.PreferencesException: Failed to initialize prefs api. java.lang.InternalError: Can't instantiate Preferences factory java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.PreferencesException: Failed to initialize prefs api. java.lang.InternalError: Can't instantiate Preferences factory java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl at org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl.init(PreferencesFactor yImpl.java:74) etc etc Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'java.util.prefs.PreferencesFactory' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/assembly/prefs.xml]: Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.PreferencesException: Failed to initialize prefs api. java.lang.InternalError: Can't instantiate Preferences factory java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory .createBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:356) etc etc Caused by: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.PreferencesException: Failed to initialize prefs api. java.lang.InternalError: Can't instantiate Preferences factory java. lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl at org.apache.jetspeed.prefs.impl.PreferencesFactoryImpl.init(PreferencesFactor yImpl.java:74) etc etc INFO: Jetspeed Initialization complete, Ready to service requests. When I try to connect using the browser I get javax.servlet.ServletException: Failed to initalize jetspeed. org.apache.jetspeed.exception.JetspeedException: Jetspeed Initialization exception! org.apache.jetspeed.engine.JetspeedServlet.doGet(JetspeedServlet.java:207) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) So two questions I guess. Can I simply copy the differences into my original tomcat 5.5 installation rather than have yet another Tomcat installation - the wiki notes say I should but also suggest there is a jetspeed-database directory, which I do not have. What have I done wrong so that using the notes referenced above, jetspeed is not initialising properly.
