install of Jahia broken..?

Hi folks,

I have come across a strange problem.

We have a running instance of Jahia which we have attempted to clone (to produce a "hot-swap" standby machine - long story there...).

Initially the key directories on the production server were copied to the second machine with rsync. Everything appeared fine until I clicked through to certain pages where an exception is thrown and the page only half completed. On first load (only) of a typical erroring page after starting Jahia I was getting this in catalina.out:

107617 [Thread-48] ERROR - Root cause : Error while forwarding the Engine /jsp/jahia/templates/adg/ADG/list_page.jsp : /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so: libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory -> BAILING OUT

On subsequent loads of the same page I was getting:

On the live server (which does not produce this error) the library file libXtst.so.6 only exists in /usr/X11R6/lib/ so I rsynced this whole directory as well. 

Even with this file there I still get the same error on the second server. The production server does not exhibit this error.

Looking at the source code of CategoryTag.java I see the problem appears to be with JTree - part of Swing missing?

So I removed my production clone version of Jahia and replaced it with a brand new install of the default download (jahia403_build5580.tar.gz - same version as the production server). I also replaced the JDK directory (Blackdown 1.4.2) - which had been previsouly copied with rsync - with a new install from the original .bin file.

The default install of Jahia seemingly worked fine. To test the category functions I went to Administration, switched administration modes to server, and clicked on Manage categories and got the error listed below in catalina.out:

Am I doing something really stupid?

:)

BTW this is running on Debian Linux 3.0rc1.
