Errors trying to install CE 3.3 on Debian Lenny

scottalexander

Hi -

I've been trying for a couple days to install 3.3 Community Edition on Debian 5.0 (Lenny). Tomcat starts when I enter:

/opt/alfresco/alfresco.sh start

But when I point the browser to:

http://myserver.com:8080/alfresco

I get Tomcat error messages, described in more detail below.

I tried installing Alfresco with Tomcat 6.0 bundled, from here:

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/alfresco-community-tomcat-3.3.tar.gz

Then I followed the instructions in the PDF here:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/w/images/8/88/Installing_and_Configuring_Alfresco_Community_Edition_3_3.pdf

and also doing some of the steps on the website:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Installing_Labs_3_Stable_on_Debian_Etch

(Step 4 from the wiki link above is not necessary when using Debian Lenny (5.0) instead of Debian Etch (4.0) because Java is now part of Debian Lenny (5.0).)

I ran used the db_setup.sql script to create the MySQL database, I've installed ImageMagick and OpenOffice and SWFTools, and I've modified the settings for these things in alfresco-global.properties (shown at the end of this post).

The MySQL database exists, but it doesn't contain any tables.

I wasn't too sure what to use for img.root in alfresco-global.properties. I ran the Linux 'find' command to look for ImageMagick on my server:

myserver ~: sudo find / -name imagemagick
/usr/lib/mime/packages/imagemagick
/usr/share/menu/imagemagick
/usr/share/doc/imagemagick
/usr/share/doc-base/imagemagick
/var/lib/doc-base/omf/imagemagick
/var/lib/doc-base/documents/imagemagick
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And I used the first directory in the output above for the value of img.root.

Tomcat is running, because the browser gives the following different Tomcat error messages when pointing the browser to the following 4 different URLs:

(1) http://myserver.com:8080
Browser displays:

nothing, but the page title says "Apache Tomcat/6.0.18 - Error report

(2) http://myserver.com:8080/alfresco
Browser displays:

type Status report

Browser displays:

type Status report

Browser reroutes to:

and displays:

type Exception report

Someone else has reported the same error message here a little over a week ago:

http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=26381

occurring when they pointed their browser to:

when going to http://myserver.com:8080/share

Their question has not been answered yet.

Another posting here:

http://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-2451?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:changehistory-tabpanel

reports that the problem involving slingshot.site.configuration was "resolved" on 21 April 2010 by Paul Holmes-Higgin.

The version of Alfresco I was using in my original post:

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/Alfresco-Community-3.3-Linux-x86-Install

was last updated 07 April 2010.

There is another version on that same page, with the letter "G" in its name, last updated 30 April 2010:

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/Alfresco-Community-3.3G-Linux-x86-Install

I will try re-installing from this nightly build later, to see if it does resolve the error message involving "slingshot.site.configuration" when going to URL http://myserver.com:8080/share.

scottalexander

I have now re-installed using the following nightly build:

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/alfresco-community-tomcat-3.3G.tar.gz

This changed the error message that was appearing when I pointed my browser to http://myserver.com:8080/share.

Previously it was the very long Tomcat error message quoted in my original post.

Now it is just a very short Tomcat error message:

HTTP Status 404 -

type Status report

message

description The requested resource () is not available.

Apache Tomcat/6.0.18‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I still get only error messages after attempt to install Alfresco CE 3.3 no Debian 5.0 (Lenny).

As mentioned earlier, the MySQL database exists and the MySQL server is running (visible on http://myserver.com/myphpadmin), OpenOffice and SWFTools and ImageMagick are all installed in running (visible when I do the Linux command 'ps ax' for example), and the Tomcat server is listening on Port 8080 (visible when I run the Linux command 'netstat -aln' for example).

Something must be wrong with my configuration.

Thanks for any help.

Hi -

SUMMARY

I have installed Alfresco 3.3 Community Edition on Linux Debian Lenny (5.0) - but I still cannot log in via a web browser at http://myserver.com:8080/share using username 'admin' and password 'admin'.

It appears that MySQL, OpenOffice, ImageMagick and SWFTools have all been installed correctly and that the file /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties has been modified correctly.

Am I using the wrong username & password - or is something wrong with my configuration?

Further details are shown below - including output for the following three commands:

sudo cat /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties
sudo cat /opt/Alfresco/alfresco.log
sudo netstat -aln‍‍‍

The above three listings seem to indicate that Tomcat appears to be running on port 8080 and is able to reach MySQL running on port 3306.

However, I am unable to login at http://myserver.com:8080/share with username 'admin' and password 'admin'.

Thanks for any help.

DETAILS

I have installed Alfresco Community Edition 3.3 on Debian Lenny (5.0), using the Alfresco distribution bundled with Tomcat, downloaded from here:

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/Alfresco-Community-3.3G-Linux-x86-Install‍

To perform the installation, I first did a 'cd' to the directory where the above file was downloaded. Then I did 'chmod 777', and executed the above file, as follows:

sudo chmod 777 Alfresco-Community-3.3G-Linux-x86-Install
sudo ./Alfresco-Community-3.3G-Linux-x86-Install‍‍

I also modified some lines in file /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classses/alfredo-global.properties to read as follows:

ooo.exe=/usr/bin/soffice
ooo.enabled=true
img.root=/usr/lib/mime/packages/imagemagick
swf.exe=/usr/local/bin/pdf2swf‍‍‍‍

These correspond to the directories where OpenOffice, ImageMagick, and SWFTools were installed earlier. Before making the modifications above, I confirmed the installation directories for these programs by doing the following commands:

sudo find / -name soffice
sudo find / -name imagemagick
sudo find / -name pdf2swf‍‍‍

It appears that the MySQL database for Alfresco was correctly created, is running, and is accessible from Tomcat.

I checked the MySQL database by going here:

http://myserver.com/phpmyadmin‍

I see an 'alfresco' database containing 88 files. The directory /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/lib also contains the MySQL connector mysql-connector-java-5.1.7-bin.jar. So it appears that Alfresco has successfully created the MySQL database 'alfresco' and the MySQL user 'alfresco' and can connect to the database.

The output from 'netstat -aln' (see LISTINGS below) seems to indicate that MySQL (port 3306), Tomcat (port 8005), and Alfresco share (port 8080) are running, and that Alfresco is able to connect to MySQL.

So everything appears to be fine.

However, when I try to actually log in to Alfresco by pointing my browser to:

http://myserver.com:8080/share

I see the Alfresco login dialog, with fields 'User name' and 'Password'.

But when I enter "admin"/"admin" in these fields I get an error message saying:

"The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized."‍

Should I be using a different username/password - or is there something still wrong with my configuration?

+++ +++ +++

To help diagnose this problem, the outputs for the following three commands:

sudo cat /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties
sudo cat /opt/Alfresco/alfresco.log
sudo netstat -aln‍‍‍

are shown below.

(The above listing of alfresco.log indicates that the port 50500 wasn't closed when ./alfresco.sh stop was run previously. This appears to be an error which was documented a couple of years ago:

https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ETHREEOH-512;jsessionid=4270CCC07E38742C325E11B0BBFBD967?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel

I don't know if this error is important.)

Hello,

        I have _exactly_ the same symptons as this poster. I managed to install Alfresco on an Ubunut desktop runnign on a vm on my desktop and it worked fine. However I am now trying to install on ubuntu server (our staging server) using the details listed by teh suer. I have the same issue on accessing share with :

org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Request processing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.extensions.surf.exception.PlatformRuntimeException: 05070001 Unable to retrieve object: slingshot.site.configuration of type: configuration

   org.springframework.web.servlet.FrameworkServlet.processRequest(FrameworkServlet.java:659)
   org.springframework.web.servlet.FrameworkServlet.doGet(FrameworkServlet.java:552)
   javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:617)

   javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717)

   And acessing server:8080/alfresco does not work at all. I'm totally stuck here and it is a real shame as I had the full blown alfresco runnign on my ubuntu desktop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Neil

To the original poster: yes, it's vital that the "Address already in use" problem does not happen. Make sure the java processes have gone completely before restarting Alfresco.

To neil.benn: please ensure you have the /alfresco application running before trying Share. Please read this post for info: http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?t=23538

Thanks,
Mike
