Startup error on Mac OS X

This thread is a little bit messy

I had an error message here before which I donÂ´t think is relevant any more so I deleted it for clarity…

I have got ImageMagick to work now by modifying the alfresco.sh startup script with these lines:

If ImageMagick has been installed in /opt/imagemagick then add the following lines to the alfresco.sh startup script :

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/imagemagick/ImageMagick-6.3.3/bin
export MAGICK_HOME="/opt/imagemagick/ImageMagick-6.3.3"
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/imagemagick/ImageMagick-6.3.3/lib"

However, I am soon giving up on getting OpenOffice to start on Mac OS X 10.4.9.

I have tried exporting displays, Xfvb frame buffer and using the open-X11 startup script but no matter how I do it I either get a DISPLAY error, a CID font error or more recently an error in X11 "Undefinied error" when it tries to start OpenOfffice.

So far I have added this to the start_oo.sh

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/Applications/OpenOffice.org\ 2.2.app//Contents/MacOS/program"

Which seem to help…

I am using OpenOffice 2.2 (installed in /Applications) for Mac OS X with X11 installed from Apples DVD.

How should the start_oo.sh script look like on Mac OS X? Specifically settings for X11 and valid launch arguments for soffice…

Which version of OpenOffice should I use?

PLEASE HELP!

When I checked my log I found out two things about ImageMagick which I wonder if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix

1/

INFO: The Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: /opt/imagemagick/ImageMagick-6.3.3/lib:.:/Library/Java/Extensions:/System/Library/Java/Extensions:/usr/lib/java

2/

When I run some transformations I get these errors listed below. The strange thing is that my preview images have been created when I look in the space to which they are copied to:

I've seen some of the same issues on Mac OS when using Apple's terminal to provide the command line. Switching to xterm (at least to start and stop Alfresco) made everything work perfectly for OpenOffice! I was able to quickly add a rule to one of my spaces that transformed incoming Word Docs to PDF.

BTW, thanks so much for your wiki at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Installing_on_MacOS_X . It was a big help for me to get CIFS access.

alexandra

Ok great tip. But how does your start_oo.sh script look like when you are starting it from xterm? The same as the one included in the download?

Great that my install-page could help someone

sdavis139

Ok great tip. But how does your start_oo.sh script look like when you are starting it from xterm?

The line from my script is:

/Applications/OpenOffice.org\ 2.1.app/Contents/MacOS/program/soffice "-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager" -nologo -headless -nofirststartwizard &

BTW, if you get tired of having X11 crowd things, take a look at

http://www.cse.psu.edu/support/docs/apple/mac_x11.php

for some cool tips!

alexandra

Interesting…

My server is complaining and wants the DISPLAY environment variable using the -display option to be set which is missing from your line…

Any ideas why your line is working…and mine is not?

I am using OpenOffice 2.2 (installed in /Applications) for Mac OS X with X11 installed from Apples DVD.

Which version of OpenOffice should I use?

PLEASE HELP!

Why not use NeoOffice? It's Mac Native, and there's a line for it in start_oo.sh. I'm about to give it a try.

caedmon

Why not use NeoOffice? It's Mac Native, and there's a line for it in start_oo.sh. I'm about to give it a try.

Ouch. Ok, NeoOffice is a wash… It's not meant to run under Root.

http://trinity.neooffice.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=2579&highlight=running+root+user+allowed

Basically they say, for Server type uses, use regular OpenOffice under X11.

I tried getting around it by using this line in start_oo.sh:

sudo -H -u jh03625 /Applications/NeoOffice.app/Contents/program/soffice "-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager" -nologo -headless -nofirststartwizard &‍

It didn't work.

So when are you going to try your hand at the WCM module?

alexandra

Ok, it is working now!

Here is what happened. My brother told me to start alfresco as root in order to easliy make the CIFS-server working and being able to mount the volume as ALFRESCO in Mac OS X Finder.

However, when I opted to use the OpenOffice launch arguments without the DISPLAY environment variable without being root and starting it from xterm in X11 it just started working.

However, that change (I guess) gave the following error in the log and mounting the CIFS-volume did not work of cours

Mac OS X Windows File Server is not running and I have tested with the firewall completely off and still the same…

alexandra

Did some more digging using the Forums and Google

Found out that in file-servers.xml there were a few values that someone suggested to edit.

The first was

<!–Set to the broadcast mask for the subnet –>
      <broadcast>255.255.255.192</broadcast>

which was 255.255.255.255 before…is this the same as netmask?

This was also disabled

      <tcpipSMB port="1445" platforms="linux,solaris,macosx"/>
      <netBIOSSMB sessionPort="1139" namePort="1137" datagramPort="1138" platforms="linux,solaris,macosx"/>

So I uncommented that as well.

After that my error messages look like this

01:27:09,666 WARN [org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiRegistryFactoryBean] Could not detect RMI registry - creating new one

Which compared to earlier is some kind of prograss.

However, when trying to mount the CIFS-volume I either get an error saying wrong password or just error code -36 when using Apple-K in Finder.

The log file says like this depending on trying with domain/alfresco or domain_A/alfresco

mount_smbfs: negotiate phase failed: syserr = Connection refused
mount_smbfs: can't get server address `UTV.RFSL.SE_A':
Unknown host
mount_smbfs: can't get server address: syserr = Network is down

Any suggestions…

parlocchio

If you start Alfresco on MAC OS X with 'root' user you can use the reserved port 445, 138, 137 and 139 for Samba & NetBios Services; otherwise if you want start Alfresco with another user you must uncomment the two lines

<tcpipSMB port="1445" platforms="linux,solaris,macosx"/> 
<netBIOSSMB sessionPort="1139" namePort="1137" datagramPort="1138" platforms="linux,solaris,macosx"/>
‍‍‍‍

and use port 1445, 1138, 1137 and 1139 ( or some other ).

Then it's important to set the domain parameter

<host name="${localname}_A" domain="yourdomain.com"/>‍

and netmask

<broadcast>255.255.255.0</broadcast>‍

after this you can try to connect from finder on the same machine where the Alfresco Server starts; to connect from other machine you can set on the firewall the rules to open 1445, 1138, 1137, 1139 ports
