We've been trying to install dotLRN on Oracle, and know we should be
able to (theoretically at least). Having followed the instructions in
the readme and grabbed the OpenACS sources from CVS and then the
dotLRN sources we have hit some problems. The OpenACS install goes ok
if we do it standalone and so does the OpenACS+dotLRN having cleaned
the database out first). However when we try to perform simple user
administration functions, we frequently get PL/SQL errors, typically
indicating that the number of parameters was wrong when creating a
new object (PL/SQL). The things that are failing look like they are
core OpenACS procedures.
My question is, is are the two CVS repositories always in sync and
should we always be able to grab a source image that is relatively
stable, or should we be grabbing a tagged release from the CVS
repository. I notice that there is a tag Âsloan-phase-1Â in early
July. However the CVS server crashes with an assert when I try to get
this tagged revision.
Any ideas, suggestions to get a basic alpha installation ?
Best Regards
Ian
