After successful installation, why can't I upload file submission? directory [dspace]/assetstore/ does not exist. when creating the manual the problem is still there.

@otuoma you should provide the complete guidelines beginning to end, how assestore directory ownership given to tomcat also when installed roby it isn't accessible to all users like dspace.and the above port 80 enabling to tomcat8 doesn't work for debian. please provide complete guidelines immediately.

hi @otuoma,
Are there any updates for a successful installation of mirage2 theme? I am trying to install dspace mirage2 but it fails. there are some warnings about command failed compass --version
use --force to continue

It fails on [INFO] Building DSpace XML-UI Mirage2 Theme :: Local Customisations 6.3 [4/13]

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal de.saumya.mojo:gem-maven-plugin:1.0.6:initialize (default) on project xmlui-mirage2: error in executing jruby: loading resource from classloader failed: META-INF/jruby.home/bin/gem -> [Help 1]

Is there a way to walk through this? I think there are some updates that do not match with prerequisites but I don't know exactly what I should change to accomplish this. Please help

I have succeeded installing mirage2. I guess i had to pay more attention to every detail
