[Using Sakai] sakai installation problem

[Steve Swinsburg]

The config module is in the source code:
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//config/tags/sakai-2.7.0/

Like I said, sakai.properties is optional. If you don't supply one, defaults will be used.

For reference, the Install Guide also mentions:
If you wish to configure a binary installation you'll need to manually create a /sakai folder in $CATALINA_HOME to hold your sakai.properties file.

and then tells you where to get a sakai.properties if you so choose to use one.

I agree however that the wording on the binary install page should mention that the properties file needs to be fetched from the source code, so will pass this on.

cheers,
Steve
