Angelos,
Thanks for that. I'll have a look at the menu configuration.
Regarding the known issue with running tomcat you're correct in assuming
that my username wasn't "user".
Cheers,
Guy

Angelos,
I am having a couple of problems with the installer and Cameron
suggested I talk to you about them. If you think they are better
suited to the mailing list please feel free to move this conversation
there.
I have downloaded the nightly build ISO (for 02/07/13) and run it in
a virtual machine. There are links for "Start ncWMS" and "Stop
ncWMS" as expected. However, there are 2 of each, and they are found
in the "Other" menu. Could you explain how the links in Desktop get
moved to the correct menu? Or simply how to get them in the right
menu and only have one of each?
Thanks for your testing of the nightly builds.
This issue is something that I have noticed too, and have tried to fix
a couple of times.
Menus are configured in the following files:
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/bin/install_icons_and_menus.sh
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/desktop-conf/xfce/xfce-osgeo.menu
I have added ncWMS in there as you can see, but for some unknown
reason it gets moved to "Others" folder... still searching this issue.
I opened a ticket for this:
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1152
The second problem is that the "Start ncWMS" link doesn't work after
installing the live DVD to the hard drive. I know this was discussed
on the mailing list (issue #1141 - Projects using default tomcat...),
but I have copied the script used by 52nWPS and others:
#!/bin/bash
STAT=\`sudo service tomcat6 status | grep pid\`
if [ "\$STAT" != "" ]; then
sudo service tomcat6 start
(sleep 2; echo "25"; sleep 2; echo "50"; sleep 2; echo "75"; sleep
2; echo "100") | zenity --progress --auto-close --text "ncWMS starting"
fi
firefox $WMS_URL/godiva2.html $WMS_QUICKSTART_URL $WMS_OVERVIEW_URL
However I have checked 52nWPS and others and they have the same
problem - tomcat is not started. To clarify, this works fine on the
live DVD, and only fails after installation to the hard drive.
This is a known issue, but I forgot to open a ticket for this.
What is the user name you used during installation?
As a workaround, you can add to the /etc/sudoers.d the following:
*<username> ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/service tomcat6
start,/usr/sbin/service tomcat6 stop,/usr/sbin/service tomcat6 status*
We need to find a way to handle this for installed systems.

Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

Guy Griffiths
