Hoping someone could point me in the right direction,

My boss wants to host inhouse ebooks (epub, ibook, pdf's) and after reading another article here I placed my inhouse folder in /Library/JSS/Tomcat/webapps/ROOT/inhouse/"file"

It does show up on self-service and when I press install, ibooks starts but then nothing else happens.

Thinking it might be permissions issues but does anyone have any thoughts?

Assuming you're not using JDS servers, then add the in-house files through the eBooks section in the JSS, then upload the files to the path you're using, and then go back and edit the URL for each individual eBook so they point to the file (ex. https://your.server.com:8443/inhouse/eBook%20Title.pdf)

If you ARE using a JDS, then just upload them through the eBook section and it should all happen automagically.
