Configuring Portal Server

Hi I tried installing the portal server (java_es-5-ga-windows-x86.zip) using default settings. I installed things separately in the following order.

Directory Server

Web server

Access Manger

Application Server

Portal Server

After each install the log claimed that the configuration completed successfully. I tried to login to the new address each time and life was good. Then I got to the portal server and the configuration failed. I have since tried to configure the server using the psadmin.bat file. What is the configuration secret? My boss thinks this is a great product so I guess lots of people have installed it successfully.

Hi,

I have seen Windows installations fail during cacao configuration. Open a windows shell and go to <Java ES install dir>/share/cacao_2 and run the script configure.bat. Does this run successfully? If not, this is how it worked for me:

1. Uninstall Java ES completely

2. Reboot

3. Make sure

- you are logged in as Admin

- you are able to ping your machine using the FQDN, e.g. mybox.example.com

4. Run the installer

5. Watch out for the file <Java ES install dir>/share/cacao_2/configuration.pl

6. As soon as it is there, place a # (comment) in front of line 120 and save

Afterwards, the installation finished successfully.

hth,

Christian
