Alfresco-4.0.a: won't be available as linux 32bit installer

yaziderman

Hey friends,

Not as the previous versions, Alfresco-4 has become in only 64 bit installer for Linux, is there any plans to add a 32bit version, or we have to install it manually?

I've no idea whether that was deliberate.

However the image is available alongside the 64 bit image. Could you double check whether the 32 bit image works?

Where? The download page only has the 64 bit installer. When you say alongside, do you mean the 64 bit installer also contains the 32bit installation?

mrogers

Change the download URL. Instead of 64 use 32.

Please post the link. I tried the following:

http://dl.alfresco.com/release/community/build-3755/alfresco-community-4.0.a-installer-linux-x32.bin

and got:

Well?

Hi there,

I also would be very grateful for a link to the 32 bit linux installer, since I cannot use the 64 bit version on our server.

I also need the 32 bit installer. Where could it be?

thanks for a great system, I really look forward to finding out whets new in 4.0….

sarnold

Same problem here. No official link to the 32 bit version for download. Substituting 64 for 32 in the URL from an external location just gives the error listed above. Can someone confirm if the omission of the 32 bit Linux installer version for download is intentional or accidental?

mrogers

I can confirm that the 32 bit installer for linux won't be provided.

However you can still do a "manual" install of Alfresco, same as for any other platform.

lachmac

Really sorry to find this info. This will make the process more difficult.

I think that if you try it, the manual install isn't very difficult at all and applies to both 32bit and 64bit OS's.
There's good info in the forums on this (depending on your OS - Linux or Windows).
I've had no problems using the WAR files under regular Tomcat installations in Linux rather than using the packaged installer.
I find this allows me to better manage core application upgrades/ patches.
Cheers, Sasquatch

Have spent some time reading up on the manual install. If there are any specific posts that her looking at, I will be all the happier to be pointed in the right direction.

I am on Debian Linux 6.0, MySQL 5.1, and Tomcat 6. And not terribly used to JAVA apps, so in need of help.

Hi,

same as lachmac - I'm also on Debian 6.0 and reading the docs… It's a bit overwhelming. It would be nice if someone could shed a bit of light on that topic. Esp. which Alfresco files/modules to install, because there were a bunch of them and I am unsure which of them I need.

Best
Thoralt

This link for Ubuntu (Debian derivative) installation, forum postings https://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=39341 will help.
Use the alfresco-community-4.0.a.zip file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/alfresco/files/Alfresco%204.0.a%20Community/ for your Tomcat installation.
Add the amp files to the alfresco war file as appropriate (alfresco-community-spp-4.0.a.zip, alfresco-community-fdk-4.0.a.zip).

Cheers,

Sasquatch

Great! Thank's a lot, I'll try this tomorrow.

I went through the installation using the recommended guide, it went all OK so far. The only difference is that I wasn't able to pull swftools via apt-get, so I installed it from source.

Thank you again.

Don't know the rationale, but yes there's a big performance issue on running on a 32 bit O.S. I'm surprised that there's even such a thing as 32 bit linux

H

However from Java's perspective there's no such thing as 32bit/64 bit so there's no difference in the JARs we actually install.

sjoerdjump

is it possibel to upgrade your server to 64 bit?
Im running alfresco on a virtual machine, so it wont be a hassle to get the hoster to give me a 64 bit version, but what steps should I take to "move" my alfresco install to that new environment?

Is a cold backup enough?

- stop the server
- make a cold backup
- move it some where save
- install new server 64 bit
- install comunity 64 bit
- restore backup

Would this work?

Thanks!

mrogers

Yes that should be fine.

You should also just be able to replace the version of Java running tomcat (JRE and JDK), as I said above there's no such thing as 64 or 32 bit Java libraries (Jar files)

Could you explain that with a bit more detail? I understand that Java is platform independent, but replacing the version of java running tomcat?
