Ok then. Since you have an expanded magnoliaAuthor folder in tomcat's
webapps folder, stop tomcat, delete the war file and restart tomcat.
Also check to be sure tomcat has write privilege on the magnoliaAuthor
folder and all it's content. Check both the catalina log in tomcat's
logs directory and magnolia Author's logs directory. Hopefully the
second one will show up this time around.
If not, there has to be some information in tomcat's logs somewhere
regarding why it isn't being deployed.

I checked /var/libs/tomcat5.5/magnolia and all it's subfolders... I do
not see any named logs...

Check to see if there is a logs directory within magnolia and check
the logs in their to see if there are any errors.

David,
OK, here is what I have found. I checked the Tomcat5.5
webapp/magnolia folder and found that all the files are there. The
war file is totally unzipped there.
In TomCat5.5 manager, Magnolia is listed as an installed application
but it is not listed as running. I cannot start it either.
When I go into http://md-lamp:8180/magnolia/.magnolia, I still get
the same error.
Still scratching my head here... Could there be something wrong with
Tomcat? I don't think so because I can use the manager application
but I am a total newbie at this... if there is a test you can
suggest I run, I will do so.

I'm reasonably sure if you customized you magnolia to write the
repositories and logs folder outside the webapp, it would.

Wow. I had no idea. (Docs said otherwise).
Let me try that and get back to you.
THANKS FOR THE TIP!

Oh! .... (light bulb shows up above my head) ... Magnolia is
designed to run as an expanded archive out of the box, not a war
file. Unzip the war file and upload that to your tomcat server.
On first start it needs to create a logs and repositories folder
in the top level of the webapp. That can't happen if it's
deployed as a war archive.

If you renamed your downloaded magnolia from
magnolia-bundled-webapp-3.5.4.war to magnolia.war, the webapp's
context will be magnolia, not magnoliaAuthor.
http://md-lamp:8180/magnolia/.magnolia
Also check your tomcat logs if that doesn't help.

Hi All!
I just installed Tomcat 5.5 and Magnolia on an Ubuntu Server
(7.10) with Apache 2. Tomcat is working fine, near as I can
tell. The Web Application Manager works, for example.
I downloaded the WAR file and used the Deploy function (I used
magnolia-bundled-webapp-3.5.4.war and renamed it to
magnolia.war). For the record, I deployed it using
http://mylamp:8180/manager/deploy?path=/magnoliaAuthor&war=file:/home/administrator/magnolia.war
TomCat Manager does show that magnoliaAuthor is installed but
I cannot start it. When I try to start it, I get the error:
FAIL - Application at context path /magnoliaAuthor could not
be started.
And yes, I have the JDK installed (sun-java5-jdk
1.5.0-13-0ubuntu1 is the package installed).
I then try to go to
http://md-lamp:8180/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia (that's what's in
the readme) and http://md-lamp:8180/magnoliaAuthor/ (which is
what was documented on a page on the net) and neither work. I
get this error message:
HTTP Status 404 - /magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia
type Status report
message /magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia
description The requested resource (/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia)
is not available.
One last point. I also tried installing this manually (the doc
page I found said to copy the way into the webapps folder,
start up Tomcat and it would bootstrap the application) with
the same success.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
