I spoke too soon. My xwiki installation doesn't want to start up :-( I'm seeing the same problem with tomcat6 or 5.5. I have xwiki set as my ROOT webapp. The problems seem to start with: """ INFO: Deploying configuration descriptor ROOT.xml 08-Apr-2012 21:33:36 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.xwiki.container.servlet.XWikiServletContextListener java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to find the Observation Manager component """ More complete trace from catalina.out here: http://pastebin.com/28C5n5fJ Any suggestions on what I could do to fix this? cheers Matt
Update:
uninstalling, then installing the package again seems to have fixed the issue.
Just need to check all my configs and db contents are still in place :-) (all backed up of course!)

Hi,
I've been trying to upgrade a 3.3 installation of the xwiki-enterprise-common package to 3.5 today. Unfortunately it seems to have failed, leaving me with no installation:
It took me through modifications to the config files in /etc/xwiki, enabling me to keep my changes and update where appropriate, but after that point:
""" Installing new version of config file /etc/xwiki/xwiki.properties ... ln: target `/usr/lib/xwiki/WEB-INF/' is not a directory: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing xwiki-enterprise-common (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 configured to not write apport reports Errors were encountered while processing: xwiki-enterprise-common E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
Current status: 0 updates [-1]. """
Manually creating the /usr/lib/xwiki and /usr/lib/xwiki/WEB-INF directories and then doing an aptitude (re)install results in installation completing and files being placed into /usr/lib/xwiki/WEB-INF; but there are no files created in /usr/lib/xwiki, as indicated that there should be [1]
Any suggestions?
Matt
