Talk:Installing Alfresco on Ubuntu 7.10
From AlfrescoWiki
Couple of remarks:
- The useradd doesn't create a group, so the chown a bit further fails - you seem to be running alfresco as user alfresco, and to change the ports it binds to for samba/nfs etc so that it doesn't need root to; this probably requires to configure the samba/ftp config files to change the port it connects to.
Else:
WONDERFUL JOB! I've been looking for exactly that for sooo long. Thank you so much.

[edit] Java-line
Since the Java version changes (mine is currently 1.6.0.03, while the document says 1.6.0.00), you should use the symbolic link instead, which is java-6-sun
[edit] Problems with logging
I updated the page somewhat, fixing some problems noted by other commenters. There seem to be a problem with the section "Configure logging": there is no log4j.properties in tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/ (there actually is no tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/ directory; the only items in tomcat/webapps/ are alfresco.war and directory ROOT). But there is log4j.properties in tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/, which seems to be the right file to edit
[edit] Problems with init script
I suggest to use the -E option for the sudo commands to pass the environments variables to the tomcat scripts
[edit] No Browser on Localhost
First, THANK YOU! Second, everything went swimmingly until the very last line in your directions: "After starting alfresco, point your browser at to http://localhost:8080/alfresco"
I don't have a GUI on my server. It is a VPS and I haven't figured out how to install Gnome. To access Alfresco I tried "http://mydomain.com:8080/alfresco" from my desktop browser with no luck. I'm in over my head. Broadpath 00:10, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
