Alfresco Installer

subhajit

Hi all,

I want to build and make the installer for alfresco community 3.4.0. I have downloaded BitRock Version: 7.1.0 and tried to build alfresco installer .xml files i.e Project.xml but every time I got the following error,

Executing pre build actions
Checking output directory
README file README.txt does not exist.
Build time: 12 seconds
Build failed!
Built with an evaluation version of InstallBuilder

Please help me out.

Thanks

Still I am not getting any reply. Every time while I am trying to build alfresco installer, getting some error from bitrock. My new error is,

Executing pre build actions
Checking output directory
Prebuild check
Cannot add

/subhajit/Projects/Alfresco/Source/HEAD/root/installer/bitrock/wcmquickstart/alfresco-community-wcmqs-3.4.b.amp to packed archive. File does not exist
Build time: 13 seconds
Build failed!
Built with an evaluation version of InstallBuilder

Is there any specific steps to follow to build that same with bitrock.

Thanks.

mikeh

I don't know much about the installer, but from the error it would seem you have to build the optional modules (e.g. web quickstart).

Thanks,
Mike

subhajit

Thanks for your reply.
Actually alfresco source code bundled with installer. So I think building that with bitrock will work, but always I am getting error. Can anybody please help me. Is there any procedures to follow to build that?

Thanks,
subhajit

mikeh

Have you actually built the wcmqs module and copied it to that location?

Mike

subhajit

Thanks for ur reply Mike. I have build only alfresco source code using build-tomcat. What are the steps to build "wcmquickstart"? What is the command?

Thanks

mikeh

Use "ant build" instead. Or "ant build-modules" to build all the modules.

Also, "ant -p" lists the important top-level build targets.

Thanks,
Mike

Whenever I am trying to build web quick start I am getting compiler error. I am using command "ant compile-wcmquickstart-module". Can you please help me out.

Thanks.

Still no reply. Every time I am getting the following error whenever I am trying to build installer in alfresco,

Executing pre build actions

Unknown error while building

I am just stuck in this. Please help me out.

Thanks,

Still no reply. There is no one who can help me to build and make an installer from alfresco install folder!!!!

The "installer" is a fairly obscure bit of Alfresco, there are few people who understand it.

As for your compile error, you are getting errors from compiling quick start. Its almost as if your quickstart is building against a different, old version of the repo libraries.

The common problem when compiling is having other character encodings than UTF-8 however that does not appear to be your problem.

Sorry can't help much more. The alfresco code does compile.

subhajit

Ok I understood. Thanks for your reply. Can you please tell me one thing- for Alfresco version 3.4.b what Bitrock version should I use?

subhajit

Can it be possible to make custom property unique in alfresco? Suppose I have created 2 custom property say 1. name 2. number, now if any user edit number column then it should be unique.

thanks.
