[ome-users] Installation under Windows server 2008

[Josh Moore]

Hi Anatole,

What are the contents of the E:\OMERO directory? Your logs say:

  Index directory not found, creating: 'E:\OMERO\FullText'

but then fail to read from that directory:

  Caused by: org.hibernate.search.SearchException: Unable to open Lucene IndexReader

This could well still be a permissions issue. If so, our check for writability:

  OMERO data dir: 'E:\\OMERO'     Exists? True    Is writable? True

is somehow not detecting your setup properly, and it would be very helpful
if we could track that down.

Cheers,
~Josh.

I managed to get pass that by running the prompt as administrator (right-click->run as administrator) (which seems to be different from running it from an administrator account, more like a sudo I guess). If somebody have a better solution, it might be what cause the errors below...

Last question, it seems omero.fs is not running (W. server 2008 is recognized as Vista, which does not support that feature); are there any plan for that? I guess I certainly would not be against (to say the least) running a linux server, but I may have to stick to windows for this one...
