HOWTO: Change the default port from 8080

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

- Ensure your Tomcat instance is looking on our extensions classpath. See http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Install_Tomcat6 for details
- Get share-config-custom.xml.sample from SVN: http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/slingshot/config/alfresco/web-extension/
- Copy this file to tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension (create the folders if they're not there) and rename it to remove the .sample extension
- Edit this file (notepad will do, or any other text editor).
- You don't need most of the other config, just the section at the bottom… something like this:

<alfresco-config>

   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Remote">
      <remote>
         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco-noauth</id>
            <name>Alfresco - unauthenticated access</name>
            <description>Access to Alfresco Repository WebScripts that do not require authentication</description>
            <connector-id>alfresco</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <identity>none</identity>
         </endpoint>

         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco</id>
            <name>Alfresco - user access</name>
            <description>Access to Alfresco Repository WebScripts that require user authentication</description>
            <connector-id>alfresco</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <identity>user</identity>
         </endpoint>

         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco-feed</id>
            <name>Alfresco Feed</name>
            <description>Alfresco Feed - supports basic HTTP authentication via the EndPointProxyServlet</description>
            <connector-id>http</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <basic-auth>true</basic-auth>
            <identity>user</identity>
         </endpoint>
      </remote>
   </config>

</alfresco-config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

- Edited the sample above to change the "localhost:8080" part of the URLs to match your local setup.
- Save the new config file and restart Tomcat (or just redeploy share)

Thanks,

Hello:

There must be some misunderstanding in this question, i`ve seen your comments but i cannot find such files and folders in my computer.
Perhaps something has changed with 3.3 version. I always feel that the main focus in your comments drives to Linux users, and im not sure wether it applies or not to windows.
Cheers
