perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Maciej Matachowski" <>]

Hi,
You are right its tricky. My LS is working. I will provide some newbie
instructions for it.
Now I started to make the AS (Authentication Service) again follow the
instruction and again some problems :) . Sorry that I write such a
things but instructions says that I have to copy some files from one
to another destination.
First thing: The folder /opt/perfsonar/webapps doesn't exist and those
files all already attached to
/opt/perfsonar/services/geant2-java-as/WEB-INF/lib .
Second thing: After restart tomcat I want to run the admin panel
http://localhost:8080/geant2_java-as  and it says that there is an
error "HTTP Status 404 - /geant2_java-as . From my manager's panel in
Tomcat I can see such a Service.

Do you have any idea what can be wrong ?

Regards,
Maciej Matachowski
