Hi, David, it sounds like you're going through a bit of what we went
through here just a month or so ago. We elected to use the disk image from
the vbox demo, which worked fine in our campus VMWare infrastructure.
We're now attempting to set up "real" Fedora and Islandora instances, and
this has been much more of a challenge, after just running and tweaking
the vbox image. If you're not too far along on your demo, you might
consider going with the vbox disk image in Vmware. Just know that you'll
have to finish this configuration sometime in the future.
Fedora 3.4.2 seems like a good baseline, and after a few weeks of
tinkering with Fedora 3.5, I'm thinking that 3.4 is a better bet for us to
try launching with. Not that I'm looking forward to a migration in the
future, but setting up Islandora with Fedora 3.5 has proved much more
challenging than I had anticipated. The documentation for installing
Gsearch for Islandora is specific to an earlier version of Gsearch, which
works with Fedora 3.4, and while I've gotten quite a bit of help off-list
(it's much appreciated) I just don't feel very comfortable with my ability
to support Fedora 3.5, and all that entails.
That's a long-winded tangent, sorry. But, since you mentioned you're
trying the latest version of Gsearch, it's possible you have a version of
Gsearch that won't work with the version of Fedora you have installed.
