There is no active transaction error .. i have now invested almost a week of my life on this software.. i followed the guide to a T and did eveything that was said still no go. what pains me the most is the amount of energy and time i spent trying to seup a pxe server becasue so i could install the ubuntu server because i have ran out of blank disk .. and all the painfull steps i took to adapt the "installation guide" to ubuntu following all the steps filling the obvious guides .. it all came to nothing.. and i just felt useless like my time could have been better spent watching pain dry .. its just so painful, yeah its opensource and free .. but we use mostly opensource software in my school and even though people say in freesoftware u get what u pay for .. i have never experienced this every software we use .. i guess after tyring calem i cant say that anymore .. cheers to the developers and thanks for waiting my life

It is unfortunate that the setup and configuration could be challenging and time consuming when you do everything by yourself. Alternatively, you can get professional support via web, email or phone from CalemEAM when you deploy Calem Enterprise edition.

Judging by your extremely articulate, completely error-free responses, my first step would be getting someone who is literate to double-check all your config settings for typos.
