Forum Problems Installing LAMS: Cannot get Lams to start

I think you need to follow this instead:

http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lamsdocs/Installing+LAMS+2.4+on+CentOS+5.8

The package that you download with LAMS already contains JBoss, so no need to download this again. Additionally, LAMS 2.4 uses jboss-5.1).

If this doesn't work out, please zip and post the logs so we can have a look.

Cheers,

Ernie

Thanks for the quick response. That is the guide I was following - being a noob to linux I didn't understand that installing jboss dependencies meant the same thing as installing jboss...

So now I have two versions of jboss I think - I have looked for guides on how to uninstall the 4.0.2 version I don't need but can't find anything - can you help please? Surely it can't be as simple as removing the /usr/local/jboss-4.0.2 folder and contents? I have tried yum erase jboss but that doesn't work because (I think) jboss was downloaded manually rather than installed by yum...

Thanks

Gavin

Leaving my concerns about the earlier version of Jboss aside (because I had the same problem before)...

I've gone through the guide again and everything is fine up until I try to start lams with the command:
su -l lams -c "/usr/local/jboss-5.1/bin/run.sh -5 50.97.148.3"

Can you advise which log I need to upload?

Many thanks

Gavin

Remember that you need Java JDK 1.6 to run LAMS with.

You can download from the Oracle website.

Once you download it, set up the JAVA_HOME variable to point to the directory in which you unzipped the JDK (ie: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.6.0_45).

Then run the script to start LAMS again.

Thanks,

Ernie

What Ubuntu/Debian version are you running?

Thanks,

I tested yesterday with 6.0.7 and it worked fine.

Do you have MySQL installed already in this box? If so, was it installed via apt-get?

Thanks
