(It's a Java/Struts based blog program.) I have FreeBSD 4.9, with a fresh install of Tomcat 5.0.16. It works and serves its root page quite nicely, also the manager page, which is pretty cool. I've tried to install Roller 0.9.8.1. There's not much to it, but I can't get it to work. The manager interface registers it, but it won't start up. The log shows a bunch of lines I believe relate to the problem. They say INFO 2004-01-21 16:24:50,809 IndexManager:getFSDirectory - Problem accessing index directory java.io.IOException: Cannot create directory: /nonexistent/roller-index So roller is trying to create a directory on /nonexistent, which doesn't. (The Tomcat server is owned by www.) So what should I do? I'd like to change the root directory for Roller, so that I can let it create its index somewhere else, but I'm not sure how to do that. Someone on the roller mailing list suggested I could do that in roller-config.xml though I see now directive for that purpose, nor a relevant comment. Ideas? Thanks, John PS I'm not subscribed to freebsd-java, so please CC me.
