Graeme, If you've just deployed it, you usually need to ensure you've setup the hibernate to point to your database (it's fairly simple to do, just edit the file and uncomment the relative area, adding in account details as needed). AFAIK tomcat won't start the app until it has a valid db connection, which could explain why you're getting a tomcat error (and not an xwiki error)
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Graeme West Sent: 12 June 2008 13:02 To: XWiki Users Subject: [xwiki-users] New install problem: 404 from Tomcat Hi all, Just attempted to deploy the XWiki 1.4 .WAR distribution into Tomcat 5.5.20, using PostgreSQL, and I'm getting a 404 error when I try to load the Xwiki main page. I deployed the wiki by dropping the .war file into the webapps directory, and Tomcat subsequently automatically unpacked the WAR into an 'xwiki' directory. But now when I go to my host : http://localhost:8080/xwiki/ , I get an Apache Tomcat 404 error, saying "The requested resource (/xwiki/) is not available.". It's not even an XWiki 404 - it's a default Tomcat one, the same as I'd get if I loaded http://localhost:8080/ThisWebAppDoesNotExist . I'm sure I've installed the Xwiki war incorrectly, but can anyone point me in the right direction - where have I gone wrong? I'm deploying on CentOS 5 using the default Tomcat installation which comes with that OS. The only thing I've changed is the Hibernate configuration to reflect a Postgre database (which is set up). Thanks in advance.
