Hi All,

  This is Sudeep from India. I am stuck up a little. I installed 
opennms-1.2.2-1 from the source. I am using tomcat-4.1.24 and 
postgresql-7.4.2.  Everything seems to be working fine except 
that when I run
>#opennnms start
It says that "Started OpenNMS, but it has not finished starting up".
And it just says that opennms is stopped when I type
>#opennms -v status

I looked into logs and into manager.log and everything seems to ok. 
I also looked into archives and tried the solution mentioned there, but 
to no sucess. Tried everything with jdk1.4.2 also. 
Just couldn't figure out. Plz help.

Thanks a lot,
Sudeep
