Hello community!
I installed alfresco from the distribution.zip (alfresco-content-services-community-distribution-6.2.0-ga) like described here: https://docs.alfresco.com/community/concepts/install-zip-overview.html
Environment:
- JDK 11
- Tomcat 9.0.34 (I know it's unsupported, but don't belief that it causes my error)
- PostgreSQL 11.7
When I startup Tomcat I see the following error in the log:
2020-04-16 11:39:54,217 WARN [heartbeat.datasender.HBDataSenderServiceBuilder] [main] Setting the Heartbeat sender cron with property 'heartbeat.sender.cronExpression' is no longer supported.

Digging deeper I found this part in the mentioned content-services-context.xml:
<bean id="transformer.PdfBox"
class="org.alfresco.repo.content.transform.PdfBoxContentTransformer"
parent="baseTikaContentTransformer">
<property name="documentSelector" ref="pdfBoxEmbededDocumentSelector" />
<property name="pdfParserConfig" ref="pdfBoxPDFParserConfig"/>
<property name="extractBookmarksText">
<value>${content.transformer.PdfBox.extractBookmarksText}</value>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="pdfBoxPDFParserConfig" class="org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParserConfig">
</bean>Can someone please tell me why the creation of the Bean fails?
Is a certain component missing that I didn't install? It seems that the DB connection is working but until this point apperently no tables are created...
