Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to ACS 3.5 beta released

Collapse
Posted by Rich Graves on
I tried getting to the demo server a few times the last several days but my account hasn't been approved yet.

The ACES 3.5 source code (I don't think it's accurate to call it ACS 3.5) looks appealing, but I can't get the thing to boot. What obvious things am I missing? I've put my aolserver and acs .ini files at http://people.brandeis.edu/~rcgraves/i-must-be-stupid/

I am running AOLserver/3.3.1+ad13, apparently same as you, Oracle 8.1.6 (1 rev down, yes I know about the hole, we're firewalled).

I am obviously talking to the database correctly because APM is bootstrapping and I get things in sec_sessions in the right tablespace.

Do I need some i18n patches not in the standard 3.3.1+ad13? Did I need to do anything special for internationalization when creating the Oracle database?

I tried both following the posted directions and skipping the load-education.sql step since [most of] it seems already installed by modified version of load-data-model.

I get "file not found" on http://samantha.unet.brandeis.edu:8080/register/

As a troubleshooting stup I created a http://samantha.unet.brandeis.edu:8080/foo.html which according to the log is found, but it's returning zero bytes.
