Community Edition Installer problem

[DiAppoggio]

I'm feel very stupid but on a clean ubuntu 7.04 installation I always get this errori message using the Community Edition installer (but this happens even if i follow instructions on wiki). Have I done something very wrong?

Mhh, is the mysql database installed and running? Did you maybe set a password for the mysql database?

Greetings.

Yes and that's strange. DB initialization is completed with no error and table are created. The server is up and running and I connnect to it simply by tying "mysql" on command line without password.

Is there simply to try while I do another clean installation?

Many thanks

[Martin Heiland]

Strange, for sure. I'll try to reproduce this error - what exact distribution are you using? 7.04 desktop or 7.04 server?

It's 7.04 Server but at this point I think that it's not installer fault. As you can see in attachment there are connection problems (also with oxinstaller) between mysql connector and the mysql server (I think...) but I'm not a java sys admin and I'm not able to read the error output.

Anyway, thanks for the attention

I have found this past thread on forum ( http://www.open-xchange.com/forum/ar...php/t-465.html ) which describes a very similar situation.

My groupware process stays up for about 5/10 seconds and then dies. In this case the java command executed is:

At this point should I try an installation on another pc?

[Martin Heiland]

what does to -console logfile says? there should be several logfiles at /var/log/open-xchange.
Maybe your machine has too less memory?

This machine hast 768MB but open-xchange-console.log is absolutely empty!!!!
Does groupware process must be run as open-xchange user?

[Martin Heiland]

I should run as open-xchange user as the path for the logfiles gets corresponding rights.

Nothing.... the file continue to have zero bytes and also it seems to be touched at each open-xchange-groupware execution (timestamp infact changes).

At this point I'll attempt on another distribution, I really don't know what I should do.

Of course I have tried to install OX on my gentoo and now... groupware process stays up. I don't know why but it works, bah!
