[DAS] Question about empty page and dazzlecfg.xml configuration

[Selmar Leeuwenburgh]

Hi,

I have a, probably very easy to solve, problem. I am at the moment
trying to install dazzle on tomcat 5.0.25. i am reading the “setting up
a Ensembl DAS Server” from www.ensembl.org/Docs/das_server_v1.2.pdf
<http://www.ensembl.org/Docs/das_server_v1.2.pdf>. I am now on page 6 in
the last part of step5. I read there “if you get an error message or an
empty page then check the servlet error log for the source of the
problem. 98 % of the problems are related to errors in the configuration
of the Dazzle webapp (i.e. In the dazzlecfg)”

So i get an directory listing when i typ “http://localhost:8080/das/” as
url in the address bar. Do you know what i need to add or change in the
dazzlecfg.xml?

With kind regards,

Selmar.

The current dazzlecfg.xml from my /usr/dazzle/dazzle-webapp-1.01 directory:

<!--
Example configuration file for the Dazzle servlet.

Please check all paths and URIs before deploying this on

your own server.
