Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: LONG: Somebody pls help me - Loading package info files...this will take a few minutes

As Tilmann says, it can take several minutes for this process to finish up.  It's not just parsing the info files it's storing information about the packages in various database tables.

Go off and have a cup of coffee or a beer or something then come back and if it's still running you might have a problem, but my guess is it will be done before you do.

I remember that I had this problem once too when first installing OpenACS on a slow machine. I just committed a changed message in acs-bootstrap-installer/installer/install-data-model.tcl that makes clear that it really can take a few minutes.
