What platform are you running on? You need to make sure your ID has full access that runs the client.


WebFOCUS 8.1.05

Hi Matt,
I'm running on linux. WebFOCUS80.
Yes, the user as sudoer profile.
I'm using a tomcat that is not the one that comes with WebFOCUS package, can it be some configuration that i missed?

tks

I run Linux as well, but use Weblogic and not Tomcat. That could be a possibility that the Tomcat package doesn't have the permission. Did you do a chmod 755 on your WF installer?

Just a silly question.

I assume you have created the approot alias ?

I expect that is was auto created on install.

I would suggest checking the install manual for Linux.

Hi,

Waz is correct. It may be as basic as the context for approot being missing, or pointing to the wrong place.

If you are using Tomcat standalone, create an approot.xml file if it does not exist (in the same place as ibi_apps.xml).

For example, this is the content of my approot.xml on Windows:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context docBase="C:\ibi\apps" path="/approot">
</Context>



WebFOCUS 8.2.06 mostly Windows Server

Hi, again.
Thanks to all who tried to suggest solutions to my problem.
The user had sudoer profile, but for some reason i made a chmod on the folders in question and i got it working.
I still don't know why this happened, some problem in installation process maybe?

Tks,
Pedro
