While trying to load the test report which comes with the irt runtime, I am
getting an error.
I checked the Tomcat logs, and I was geting the following error:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2006-09-07 17:27:06.282
!MESSAGE Error reading configuration:

java.io.FileNotFoundException:
/usr/local/tomcat5.5/webapps/birt-viewer/WEB-INF/platform/co nfiguration/org.eclipse.osgi/.manager/.fileTableLock
(No such file or directory)

I checked the directory structure and the org.eclipse.osgi directory was
missing.
I copied the one from the eclipse instalation, restarted tomcat.

The stach trace from thr birt-viewer is as follows:

Which configuration file is the birt-viewer having problems with? Any
assistance will be deeply appreciated.

How did you deploy birt ?

a . Using birt.war and Tomcat Manager
b. or unziping birt content con Tomcat/webapps?

if (b) then see if birt-viewer user& group are tomcat:tomcat.

Where do I check for the user & gropu for birt-viewer?

On console type:
ls -l /usr/local/tomcat5.5/webapps/

And you will see birt-viewer owners, to change them type

chown -R tomcat:tomcat /usr/local/tomcat5.5/webapps/birt-viewer/

If not working try to change with chmod permissions on birt-viewer folder.

I have same problems under linux with unzipping, but finally i had used
tomcat web manager to deploy birt.war (easiest way). Tomcat manager is
running on localhost:8080 read tomcat install instructions to use
manager. Copy birt.war to /webapps directory and on manager on browse
for war only type birt.war and press deploy button. That is all, don't
forget to copy itext jar.

Regards,
Mauro

When I try to do a remote deployment, I get the following:

FAIL - Deploy Upload Failed, Exception: nullI copied the birt.war to the
local server file system.Trying to deploy directly i am also getting
errors.I have left contect path empty.XML Configuration file URL : birtWAR
or Directory URL : /[pathtobirt.war]/birt.warError -> FAIL - Invalid
context path was specified
COntext path: birtXML Configuration file URL : birtWAR or Directory URL :
/[pathtobirt.war]/birt.warError ->FAIL - Invalid context path birt was
specified
BTW, this is running on FreeBSD 6.1. tomcat5.5 is owned by root/wheelAny

I too suffered the same fate onboard max OS X. I am not aware of the detailed fault but i have the solution. There is a security option in Tomcat confifugration. It should be in server.xml. I switched it off from the server configuration in Eclipse and the access violation java.util.properties "birt.designer" read went away. I think it is because of the fact that tomcat is deployed in some other directory and as another owner while my birt app (especially when running from ecplise Run/Debug clicks) is getting deployed and invoked at another temp location inside the workspace folder. Hence the user of the folders would be different and hence the access violation.
In production environment the webapps folder user rights and the rights of the tomcat server would essentially be taken care off and hence you would be able to keep the security bit ON and not face this.
