Dear Raj,
This error occurs because the machine the IPT is being installed on cannot make outgoing connections. I see the error is saying it cannot talk to the GBIF registry. The IPT administrator will need to investigate if there are ports closed or firewall restrictions stopping this from happening. On Linux the best way to ensure it is possible is to open a terminal and type "curl http://gbrds.gbif.org"
There is also no need to install Geoserver for the IPT 2.0.x although there should not be an issue if you so wish to. I would suggest not to do so during training though as it might complicate things unnecessarily.
Please can ensure all issues are sent to the to the IPT users list (ipt@lists.gbif.org ) which you will have to subscribe to if not already? There are more people on the list that can help diagnose potential issues, and quicker normally than I can alone.
I hope this helps, Tim

Dear Mr. Raj,
As suggested I downloaded the latest IPT version(ipt-2.0.2.war) and tried to install on the test machine.
Following steps were followed
- Installed java(jre-6u25-windows-i586), apache (apache-
tomcat-6.0.32) and copied ipt.war and geoserver files in apache webapps directory. 2. Run localhost:8080/ipt on the firefox browser. 3. In IPT Setup-I (directory path as c:\iptdata was given) 4. In IPT Setup-II (gave email, firstname, lastname, password etc. under base url it automatically took path as http://DSPUNDIR:8080/ ipt but it showed error when I clicked on Save. 5. Then I changed to base url to http://localhost:8080/ipt and clicked on save. Then it directed to error screen (As shown in pdf attachment) 6. In proxy URL I tried both by leaving it blank and next time I have our Institute proxy server setting as http://192.168.201.254:8080 Then it directed to error screen (As shown in pdf attachment) 7. After step 5 it showed error screen(pdf file) which I am attaching you for your information and action. I am also sending you the log screen in pdf file.
Kindly guide.
