Re: [Exist-open] CentOS, eXist-db Further question

[Dale P. <ldp...@gm...>]

Thanks.   Problem solved.  I decided to check the logs again.  This time I
started and stopped the installation, once as root- where everything worked
- and once as my preferred user which did not allow me access via the
browser, but the system was running.  I copied the appropriate sections out
of the log and pasted them into NoteTab separate files and 'blinked' back
and forth between the files looking for different lines.  I finally found
what I had been overlooking when just reading the logs.  There was a small
file in the /tmp folder 'xfTestConfigOneElementInMemory.data', or something
like that which was owned by root.  Probably created when I installed
eXist.  I changed the ownership to my preferred user and that solved the
problem.  Moral of my story is to learn to read the logs creatively.
 Thanks everyone.

Dale
