Re: [Bimserver-users] database deployment problem

Hi Time,

The database will try to install in a directory called 'database' in
the current working directory, when you are running, that's probably
the home directory of tomcat.
You can also override the location of the database in a file valled
settings.xml, but you would have to modify the war file (you can do
that with most zip software like 7-zip).
The settings file can be found in WEB-INF/settings.xml.

The message 'SEVERE: Error creating database dir "/database"' worries
me a bit, because on linux this implies installing the database in the
root directory of your filesystem, which is not what you would want, I
will check this in the source code asap, for now could you try
settings the database location explicitly in the settings.xml?

Kind regards,
Ruben de Laat
