Hi!

Yes, there is detailed information in our Advanced Installation Guide for the latest release (0.9.7.3) on how to install the platform to Tomcat.

Be sure to get release 0.9.7.3 of both the platform binaries AND the documentation:)

Let us know how the installation goes for you,

best regards,
Gretchen

hi -

had gone through the installation guide .. not of much help

As there is no mention of editing web.xml and the parameter setting for solution-path. (managed to find it through the forums)

Anyways i have entered the following context paramters


solution-path /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/webapps/pentaho/WE
B-INF/classes/org/pentaho



base-url http://192.168.1.202:8080/pentaho/


But got the following error:

Error:
