Hi,

I am new to alfresco and I try to run the examples of Alfresco SDK. When I run "SimpleExample" of the JCR Samples, I have the followings appearing in the console :

15:45:39,015 ERROR [transform.magick.AbstractImageMagickContentTransformer] ImageMagickContentTransformer not available: Failed to perform ImageMagick transformation:

I have found a similar issue in the forum, but with no given solution :

http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=8313

In case it matters, I am using alfresco SDK v2.1, with MySQL 5.0.45 on JDK1.5, OS : Windows XP SP 2

Thanks for any help,
Damien

Two things here:

1. ImageMagik transformation …

Refer to: http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=7407

2. DB setup issue …

Refer to: http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=8587

Please double check your DB setup & properties. It may help to explicitly override the DB setup for your SDK installation to make sure it points at your MySQL database:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Database_Configuration

You can also update the RetryingTransactionHelper.java in your SDK to see the underlying cause of the rollback. Replace:

                lastException = (e instanceof RuntimeException) ? 
                        (RuntimeException)e : new AlfrescoRuntimeException("Unknown Exception in Transaction.", e);


‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

with:

                if (e instanceof RollbackException)
                {
                    lastException = (e.getCause() instanceof RuntimeException) ?
                         (RuntimeException)e.getCause() : new AlfrescoRuntimeException("Exception in Transaction.", e.getCause());
                }
                else
                {
                    lastException = (e instanceof RuntimeException) ? 
                         (RuntimeException)e : new AlfrescoRuntimeException("Exception in Transaction.", e);
                }
