404 on /share and /alfresco

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.

OS: CentOS
Alfresco Version: 4.2.b

I installed the bin version of 4.2.b on CentOS using the directions at http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.alfresco.enterprise.doc%2Ftasks%2Fsimpleinstall-community-lin.html and selecting the default options throughout.

The installation reported no failures and starting up / shutting down the service raises no errors.  If I go to <my ip>:8080, I get the default Tomcat page, whether I use the machine's full IP or wget from the machine to 127.0.0.1 or localhost.  However, trying to access /share and /alfresco results in a 404 error.

I've confirmed Tomcat is using the correct paths and have used the magic "bounce the server" trick suggested in several threads, but no joy. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

I'm also seeing some SOLR related errors (as below), which may or may not be related.  A thread I found suggested these error may be caused by iptables blocking outgoing packets. To test, I disabled iptables, but no change.

In the logs/localhost_access_log….txt I see entries like below every 15 seconds even when not accessing pages.

I have exactly the same problem.

Also installed alfresco on Cent O.S and all went well but if i do a service restart catalina out gives me exactly that error.

I dunno what may cause this…

Please help me (us)

PS: i THINK it has something to do with SOLR caching because it fails when i insert a new model.
Also happened when i tried to install javascript console-share-0.5.jar

Is there some way to prevent this?
