Alfresco 3.0 is not starting up in windows <solved>

vijayakumar

Hi,

I have installed Alfresco-Enterprise- 3.0.0-Full-Setup.exe in my windows XP machine. when I restarted my Alfresco server from c:/alfresco, my alfresco server not gets started and am getting the following response.

C:\Alfresco>virtual_start
starting virtual-tomcat
Starting Tomcat…
Using CATALINA_BASE:   c:\alfresco\virtual-tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   c:\alfresco\virtual-tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: c:\alfresco\virtual-tomcat\temp
Using JRE_HOME:        C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0

C:\Alfresco>

Hence am manually starting tomcat and then virtual-tomcat but my virtual-tomcat was not sucessful and hence am unable to preview my files in the user sandbox. The log am getting is as follows:

The above gets keep on repeating….
and finally am getting the error message as

Cjava.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.derby.impl.jdbc.EmbedSQL
Exception (no security manager: RMI class loader disabled)

In alfresco-virtserver.properties I have changed the content as follows:

alfresco.virtserver.domain=172-20-56-113.ip.alfrescodemo.net

where 172-20-56-113 is my IP (i.e. localhost) address…

I also tried to change the following in alfresco-shared.properties

from
alfresco.rmi.services.port=50500
to
alfresco.rmi.services.port=8180

Please help me in this regard

Hello!

We at springsite.com expirienced the simular problem, but log files were without exception, just this looped message

We use for now Labs3c build for 24-Nov-2008

I have performed investigation, and results are as follows. May be thay would be usefull for someone.

Alfresco server contains the following files:

%Alfresco_installed_dir%\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\
1) alfresco-shared.properties with line
alfresco.rmi.services.port=50500

2) repository.properties with the following
avm.rmi.service.port=50501
avmsync.rmi.service.port=50502
attribute.rmi.service.port=50503
authentication.rmi.service.port=50504
repo.rmi.service.port=50505
action.rmi.service.port=50506

And virtual server has the file

%Alfresco_installed_dir%\virtual-tomcat\conf\alfresco-shared.properties
which has alfresco.rmi.services.port=50500 (the same port as in the server, but a name of properties is the same, so logically it ok )

and also a file

alfresco-virtserver.properties with property which was set to
alfresco.virtserver.jmxrmi.port=50501

but at the server this port is taken for AVM rmi port, but AVM is kind of Control Version System, and it doens't relate to virtualization server.

So changing this property to another value helped me, and virtual server started properly.

avm.rmi.service.port=50509

Thanks its working fine for me now..

I am experiencing the same problem with labs 3.0c on Fedora 10, but the suggested fix isn't working for me. I may have misread the suggestion about which file the port number needed to be changed in. I changed it in both <Alfresco>/virtual-tomcat/conf/alfresco-shared.properties and <Alfresco>/virtual-tomcat/alfresco-virtserver.properties. Doing a netstat -an before starting did not show anything already bound to the port.

Here is the relevant log snippet.

Here is the relevant line from alfresco-shared.properties:

# Remote RMI services
alfresco.rmi.services.port=50600
alfresco.rmi.services.host=localhost‍‍‍

and here is the relevant line from alfresco-virtserver.properties:

alfresco.virtserver.jmxrmi.port=50600‍

I feel like I'm overlooking something obvious, but I've been working on this for about an hour and it's getting less obvious by the moment.

A little closer reading revealed my misunderstanding. The property declaration in repository.properties was the one I needed to be modifying.

kaplan

Just letting folks know that I also ran into the same problem running Alfresco 3 with a clean Ubuntu 8.10 install.

Dzmitry Harachka's suggestion of changing avm.rmi.service.port resolved the immediate problem and allowed Alfresco to eventually start.

Hello

Me too facing similar problem while starting virtual server.

I have done changes as per Dzmitry's suggestion but fail to get through.

Also I am unable to find any file with name repository.properties under any folder in %ALFRESCO_HOME%

I am gettig following error as captured in logfile C:\Alfresco\virtual-tomcat\logs\catalina.2009-03-05
