I'm getting the exact same error message.

I've tried all sorts of things, including searching for similar threads and solutions don't work. My environment is Tomcat 6.0 with alfresco-community-war-2.1.0

As the subject says, I'm also getting the same thing.

I figured out the issue. DB was not setup correctly. Whilst HSQL seemed to be all there, there was some issues with default directories it needed. The tomcat distribution of Alfresco community had the files/folders needed.

The whole setup is a disaster competed to other CMS's and for that reason, I've ditched Alfresco as I'm worried about what other aspects are overly complex and involved to keep running.

Good luck…

Thanks gslender. I suspect that I may be running into the known Mandriva MySQL issue mentioned in:

http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=55

I forgot to state before that I'm using Mandriva 2008 x64 with MySQL Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.45 and tomcat-6.0.16.
