Hi, I am trying to customize the configuration of our Nuxeo platform following recommendations in http://doc.nuxeo.com/display/ADMINDOC56/Configuration+templates and http://doc.nuxeo.com/display/ADMINDOC56/Adding+custom + templates

I get an error when executing 'nuxeoctl start' :

 Configuration files generated.
  Could not run configuration: 
  java.io.FileNotFoundException:
  /home/nuxeo/nuxeo56/nuxeo-cap-5.6-tomcat/templates/unknown/nuxeo.defaults (No such file or directory)
    6

I can see with 'nuxeoctl showconf' that the database template is considered unknow

… but I can't undestand why … ???

Any idea is welcome ! Thanks for your help.

Here is a brief summary of the configuration :

/home/nuxeo/nuxeo_conf/nuxeo.conf :

#nuxeo.templates=postgresql,dam,collaboration,drive
nuxeo.templates=/home/nuxeo/nuxeo_custom_templates/custom

$ cat /home/nuxeo/nuxeo_custom_templates/custom/nuxeo.defaults

## Edit this file to customize your configuration ##
#custom.target=

custom.target=nxserver

# Set list of templates to include, comma separated values.

nuxeo.template.includes=postgresql,dam,collaboration

org.nuxeo.ecm.instance.description=Nuxeo ECM customized
nuxeo.server.http.port=8080
