Hi,
I submitted a question two weeks ago regarding to the deployment of TDS 4.5.0.
The symptom is: TDS fails to copy configuration files/folders from
altContent/startup/ to TOMCAT_ROOT/, then TDS can't find xmls in
content/thredds so I saw these in log file:
moteController.tdsContext; nested exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean
with name 'tdsContext' defined in...
nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at
thredds.util.ThreddsConfigReader.getRootList(ThreddsConfigReader.java:62)
at thredds.servlet.ThreddsConfig.init(ThreddsConfig.java:64)
at
thredds.server.config.TdsContext.afterPropertiesSet(TdsContext.java:369)
IMO, this is the consequence of missing config files in content/thredds folder.
The real problem may reside at:
AbstractServlet.java:68
protected void initContent() throws javax.servlet.ServletException {
// first time, create content directory
String initialContentPath = ServletUtil.getInitialContentPath() + getPath();
File initialContentFile = new File(initialContentPath);
if (initialContentFile.exists()) {
try {
if (ServletUtil.copyDir(initialContentPath, contentPath))
logServerStartup.info("copyDir " + initialContentPath + " to " +
contentPath);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
logServerStartup.error("failed to copyDir " + initialContentPath + " to
" + contentPath, ioe);
}
}
}
This function failed to copy content from altContent/startup/
I understand the implementation of this function probably is fine. It must be a
setup issue on my end. But, I just can't find the problem myself. Here is the
return from ps (I use jsvc over Tomcat 7.0 with APR, TDS version is 4.3 and 4.5)
jsvc.exec -java-home /usr/java/default -user tomcat -pidfile
/var/lib/tomcat7054/logs/catalina-daemon.pid -wait 10 -outfile
/var/lib/tomcat7054/logs/catalina-daemon.out -errfile &1 -classpath

-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/lib/tomcat7054/temp org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap
You can tell I have tds.content.root.path, java.util.prefs.systemRoot and
java.util.prefs.userRoot all point to the right location
(/var/lib/tomcat7054/content). The tomcat user has full access to this content
folder. In fact, I can see logs folder created under content/thredds/. But all
other config files/folders were not there...
Please advise!
Thanks a lot!
Guan
