Mango M2M Community

Hi there,

Just tried to install the last version on a new *nix machine.

I got a last trouble I did not success resolving yet maybe someone could help me :

the Help links don't works , when people click on the question mark, they get the div, qith "loading..." title and then a browser error message withou any explanation. WEB-INF/dox/[lang] files are here with the correct rights access

here are some troubles I resolved and their solution:

on tomcat launch mango try to get a write acces on several files :
-derby.log createTables.log -> looks like they try to write it on the lancher home directory with the tomcat launcher rights. for my installation it was on /root/ with user tomcat:tomcat rights

Solutions : giving right access on the directory to tomcat user / launching tomcat as root / making a hack on source code so that these files are in the usual mango log folder.

mango default log and DB folders did not suit my installation ... you'll find and manage to change the paths in log4j.xml and env.properties files you'll find in [mango]/WEB-INF/classes/

some troubles sending mails : a usual tomcat javamail trouble , mango com with its mail.jar but if there is any other mail.jar/javamail.jar/smtp.jar in tomcat's classpath sending mail migth be bogus - everything become OK when others are removed.

some trouble with i18n -> when your locale is not English mango looks strange : ???login.userId??? for exemple , there a thread here explaining where to configure i18n .

Hello,

You seem to have found your way around customization of installation quite well. Regarding your online documentation issue, are there any error messages in the Tomcat console?

Also, can you specify the Java JRE or JDK that you are using, and what *nix distro?

Re oppenning my old thread

My distros : fedora 11 and Fedora 12
Java : OpenJDK

I guess I'll have some questions soon about serial ports.

I can access /dev/ttyS0 with tomcat user on the console but no serial port is present in the list on mango.

RXTX and others jars seem to be on the right place.

Is there any easy way to test it ?
Any configuration hint ?

Found a rxtx lock unable error...
Solved it by adding tomcat user to corresponding group.

And a reboot was mandatory ...
