SuperContainer Installation Error

[Chong-Yee]

Sorry for the bother, but I'm a first time user of SuperContainer having trouble with installing it. I hope someone in these forums can help.

I've recently upgraded to Server 11 Advanced and have downloaded the latest SuperContainer (2.742). Ran Installer.jar from the local hard disk (not network drive). Message says "An unexpected error occurred during installation".

I then followed the instructions for manual installation, and SuperContainer appears to run, but only in Demo Mode. There wasn't any opportunity to enter the registration code (presumably this would have been part of the aborted installation process).

What may be relevant is that I seem to remember installing a demo version of SuperContainer some months back (the button on the Installer screen says "Upgrade", which seems to confirm this). Clicking "Remove" gives the same "unexpected error" message.

Can someone help please?

Regards,

Chong-Yee

P.S. I should have added that restarting doesn't seem to help.

The installer.jar file does not currently work on snow leopard. You will need to perform a manual installation (which it sounds like you have done already).

For any deployment option the registration is done from http://mysupercontaineraddress.com/SuperContianer. You can then click on the Registration link and enter your registration information on the fields on the screen. You can read about the registration process in the documentation.html file included with your download of SuperContainer.

I am having the same installation error with SuperContainer 2.744 on two different Mac OSX Leopard Server machines. I tried manual installation on both - and verified permissions - and I get "page not found" on both servers when I go to mysupercontaineraddress/SuperContainer

I have uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted, checked my settings - what can I try next?

Never mind - found the answer on the wiki - missed the Tomcat config path on the manual install - now working correctly... Wish the install instructions mentioned that Snow Leopard requires a manual install...
