Need help with installing

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

Hi all,

I am new to this forum and i need some help with installing JForum.

I got Tomcat version 6.0.14 and JForum 2.1.8
The JForum files are in the webapps folder and the folder is called jforum.

When i try to put http://myservername/jforum in the internet bar im getting this output:

http://localhost/jforum/forums/list.page

type Status report

message Servlet jforum is not available

description The requested resource (Servlet jforum is not available) is not available.

Do i have to change something in my xml files to make it work or is it something else?

I hope some1 can help me with this because it need this forum really bad for schoolwork.

Greetings,

Nick

That's a weird one... I assume that there is a Command.class file in the webapps/jforumWEB-INF/classes/net/jforum directory?

Also, if the server is running *nix, that the permissions on this file (and others) are set so that the user id that the Tomcat service is running can access it.

Yeah the problem was Command.class, it wouldnt let me copy the file to the server but its fixed now And JForum is working

Thanks for the assistance.
