Configure document storage location

celiowin

Hi,
I've deployed alfresco.war and share.war in tomcat running on a web server. My question is how do you configure alfresco to change the location where the documents are stored from web server to a file server?

Need someone to point me in the right direction.

thanks

If you are using Alfresco 3.3 the file for changing the location of alf_data is
under tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties
Change the settings of dir.root=./alf_data
to point to an absolute path say for eg. your file server is mounted on g: drive then
the dir.root might look something like
dir.root=g:/blahblah

What if it is across a network.

Alfresco stores the content in the file system and not in the database.
So its normal to expect to have the DB distributed rather than the file system,
as that might slow down the performance of content rendering on the web.

This doesn't work in version 5.*
