Forum OpenACS Development: Ubuntu 9.10 Installation Problem

Collapse
Posted by Raul Rodriguez on
I performed a clean installation of Ubuntu 9.10. I did not select installation of postgres as I did that via the instructions at: https://openacs.org/xowiki/ubuntu

I then followed the said installation instructions. The installation fails when not entering the default values for the pop up windows. If you choose any owner/username etc other than the defaults, the installation fails.

The first error I see is:
.: 183: Can't open /usr/share/wwwconfig-common/pgsql.get
openacs failed to preconfigure, with exit status 2

then later:

Any ideas?

Thank You.

I ended up figuring out that the database host name I used was not correct. I left it at localhost and the installation worked fine.
