Hi, I have just installed eXist on a linux slackware server, but now when I'm trying to use it to make a collection where I can add files, it gives me the following errors. Does anyone know what is the problem. To install eXist these were the steps I followed: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.1_02 cd /usr/local/eXist/bin chmod +x client.sh export EXIST_HOME=/usr/local/exist/WEB-INF cd /usr/local/eXist/bin ./client.sh Then eXist starts, then I try to make a collection and it fails, as you see below. eXist version 0.9, Copyright (C) 2003 Wolfgang Meier eXist comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
