[rules-users] Guvnor in Websphere 6.1 setup, repository problem

Hi all, I've been trying to install Drools 5 in websphere 6.1, and followed some documentation available on the wiki at: http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DeployingGuvnor5OnWebSphere That page did solve a lot of the issues I was having, but now I'm faced with something that seems a little unique. Maybe I'm not understanding something basic, maybe not... Anyway, my repository home directory is set to: <property name="homeDirectory">/data/GuvnorRepo/</property> First noob question is where should I put the data directory? The reason I ask is that no matter where I put it, when I start up the web application, I get the following (summarized and annotated) stack trace: [4/19/10 8:38:16:863 CDT] 00000016 WebGroup A SRVE0169I: Loading Web Module: JBoss Drools Guvnor.

Websphere does not provide it as far as I know, but there's an alternative, my Websphere application directory, and if I put data there, I get the same error. I've also tried my Eclipse project's root and the WEB-INF. While debugging it, I tried to take all folder structure out and see where the repository.xml file would appear, but not only it did not, it gave me a different error on startup. So, with this in components.xml: <property name="homeDirectory"></property> I get: [4/19/10 8:49:48:773 CDT] 00000026 WebGroup A SRVE0169I: Loading Web Module: JBoss Drools Guvnor.
