[GeoNetwork-users] GN2.1, tomcat Javascript errors

Mark_Small · December 6, 2007, 1:05pm

Hi there,

I am a newbie to GeoNetwork, and I am trying to install GeoNetwork 2.1 under
Tomcat 6 using PostGres on solaris 10.

I have installed GN 2.1 with the embedded jetty engine and it works fine. I
then installed tomcat and added the 2 context elements just before the end of
the host element.

I am using tomcat as a standalone server, but will be migrating to having
httpd receiving requests and passing them on to tomcat if I can get GN
working with tomcat as a standalone server.

I point my browser at the correct url and GN loads, the errors appear to be
JavaScript:

closeIntermap is not defined
im_mm_init is not defined

The map in the top left corner doesn't appear either and when I click on one
of the categories, I get further JavaScript errors stating:

clearNode is not defined

I looked at the main-page. xsl file and found <script> elements referencing a
number of JavaScript files, some had a question at the end of the src (I have
never come across this before, any ideas anyone???).

Also, from what little I know about JavaScript any function referenced by
another should come before the definition of the function. Therefore the
order that some of the JavaScript is defined appears to be incorrect, that
said it seems to work when I use the embedded jetty engine.

My gut feeling is that I have some setup problem with interMap but I don't
know enough about the whole GN InterMap package to know for certain.

Any help that can be give is much appreciated, cheers.

I am not specialist but i think i have the same problem before.

Check that your Geoserver work well !

http://localhost:8180/geoserver/

On the main page Geonetwork display the world map and boundaries coming from
Geoserver.
Using the intermap embedded

Maybe your problem is the one i have before.

If it's work well have also a look at the intermap embedded to ckeck there
is no error

And have also a look at the.
/Geonetwork/web/intermap/WEB-INF/mapServers.xml
The parameters must point to your Geoserver for the default map

To start the Geoserver part i have to add it on my context list the
geonetwork part
for you certainly :
          <Context path="/geoserver"

docBase="/home/compass/local/apps/geonetwork/web/geoserver"
                   crossContext="false"
                   debug="0"
                   reloadable="false" />

Be aware that Geonetwork is tested with java 1.5.0 and tomcat 5.5 not the 6.
I think that there is issues with Geonetwork on tomcat 6 and also with java
1.6.

Fabien Bachraty
