Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Redman, Chad" <>]

Are you on Java 11 by chance? We're working on that for 2.5, but not there 
yet. You can add these jars manually which are no longer in the Java 11 
distribution:

javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api:2.3.1
com.sun.xml.bind:jaxb-impl:2.3.2
com.sun.xml.bind:jaxb-core:2.3.0.1

For gsh to work, you may need to replace groovy-all-2.5.0-beta-2.jar with 
some or all of the groovy-* jars that are now split up into smaller 
components instead of one big jar file. We haven't identified which of them 
are necessary yet. Testing so far also indicates upgrading to 
javassist:3.24.1-GA.jar.

Subject: [grouper-users] 2.4.x installer fails, Problem reading config: 
'database:grouper'

Hello all,

My google-fu hasn't yet proven fruitful, so here goes.

I'm trying to install 2.4 current (all patches), on a CentOS VM in our 
dev environment, but the process fails.

My previous installation in a proof of concept environment (Ubuntu VM on 
VirtualBox) went fine.

The grouper config table in both instances is empty, and the 'sa' user 
has ownership and privs on the PostgreSQL database used for Grouper as 
well as all of the tables & views.
