The build scripts include the contents of grouper/dist/lib on the
classpath and should cope with Grouper-lib.jar or the individual jar
files that are used to make Grouper-lib.jar. Did the ant script
actually fail? If so I'd be interested to see the error output.

The Grouper API distribution expects to connect directly to a database
file in dist/run - configured in hibernate.properties and sources.xml.
The grouper-ui build script copies those files to the WEB-INF/classes
directory where the relative paths are no longer correct. You can make
the paths absolute and rebuild the UI and that should work.

When using the UI it is best to run HSQLDB as a server and connect via a
socket - this allows you to run the API against the same database, and
allows you to run the database manager app - only one connection to a
file is possible at a time. grouper-qs is configured to connect to a
server - which can be run using the grouper-qs/build.xml:db target

The database that is built from the API distribution is not the
QuickStart database, so it has minimal content, though it will contain
a GrouperSystem subject.

As far as I am aware others have been able to run the QuickStart. It may
be that something isn't clear in the instructions. In any case, if you
still have problems you can send me your grouper-qs set up with your
configuration changes and I'll take a look at it.

Gary, I brought the QS down yesterday and discovered that quite a few of
the filenames in
"grouper-qs/grouper-ui/java/src/edu/internet2/middleware/grouper/ui/actio
ns" are truncated and had to be repaired to do the build.
Steve, which operating system are you using? I created the tar.gz file in Cygwin on windows and have successfully unpacked it on Windows.
