Hi,

I already have a working tomcat installation and mysql database on Linux for another application. For some reason I dont have the Manager application so I ve done the following

Unzipped the apache-roller-4.0.zip
Copied contents of webapp into jakarta-tomcat/webapps
Create roller-custom.properties in jakarta-tomcat/common/classes
Shutdown and restarted tomcat

A blogger.log gets created in jakarta-tomcat/logs with the following content (Ive blanked out details) and there are no errors. I didnt haven't permission to create a new database so I just amended the details to point to the existing database I have which I do
have permission to to modiy.

INFO 2008-04-29 03:30:36,984 DatabaseProvider:successMessage - SUCCESS: Got parameters. Using configuration type JDBC_PROPERTIES INFO 2008-04-29 03:30:36,996 DatabaseProvider:successMessage - -- Using JDBC driver class: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver INFO 2008-04-29 03:30:36,999 DatabaseProvider:successMessage - -- Using JDBC connection URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/***?autoReconnect=true INFO 2008-04-29 03:30:37,002 DatabaseProvider:successMessage - -- Using JDBC username: *** INFO 2008-04-29 03:30:37,005 DatabaseProvider:successMessage - -- Using JDBC password: [hidden]

but when I try to navigate to the roller webpage

htttp://www.company.name/roller

I just get 404 error, I can navigate to my other web apps ok.

Im completely stuck with this, anyone have any ideas thanks Paul
