AW: [opencms-dev] simple newbie questions about installation

[Jakob Lemler]

Hi Judith,

let us first try to get the necessary info:
1) Which Version of tomcat, operating system, database and jdbc-driver
you are using?
2) Which java (jre/sdk) version is installed on your machine?
3) Did you get any error messages during the setup
(http://localhost:8080/opencms/setup)?

Until we get your answers for 1 to 3, some "blind" tries:
A) Did you copy your jdbc driver in the %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib
directory?
B) If you open a (dos)-shell, do you get some sensful answer if you
execute: "javac -version" ?

The steps to get OpencCms running in short:
1) Jdk ist installed, JAVA_HOME Variable is correct and the bin
directory in the path.
2) Database is running (and a supported one ;-)
3) Tomcat is installed, the jdbc driver (=jar file) for your database is
in the "%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib" directory (forget this step if you
are using mysql).
4) Start the setup in your browser: http://localhost:8080/opencms/setup

After finisching these steps you should be up and ok... Ready for RTFM.
If all is running fine within tomcat, then I would try to use the
jk-thing and apache...

Regards
Jakob

Hi
probably my questions are too stupid to be answered?
I got the logs saying it does not find the userdriver (last mail)this
when I have set the wizard.enabled=false If I set it on true again,I get
following errorlog from tomcat:

StandardWrapperValve[jsp]: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw  
exception
Unable to find a javac compiler;
com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK
	at  
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.getCompil
er(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:106)


The terrible thing? I loose so much time trying to make the opencms
work.. Judith
