Alfresco Community 6.2.0-ga Installation Issue

logicallimit

Hi,

To my surprise, the installation of this latest version of Alfresco 6 has been made a terribly difficult thing to be done. I am pretty sure it could have been much much simpler.

I am following the installation documentation but not able to install it in my Windows workstation.

Here is the environment

OS: Windows 7 Professional 64Bit

Alfresco file used: alfresco-content-services-community-distribution-6.2.0-ga.zip

Database: PostgreSQL 9.5

Java: jdk-11.0.6

Tomcat: tomcat-9.0.30

The error shown when I start tomcat is as below:

Any idea what might be going wrong. Did I miss something?

Try creating this folder:

The directory specified by base and internal path [D:\Projects\alfresco\tom
cat9030/../modules/platform]\[] does not exist.

Thanks for the pointer.

I created the directories as below:

\Projects\alfresco\tomcat9030\modules\platform

\Projects\alfresco\tomcat9030\modules\share

Apart from this, there were some other issues also.

Just wanted to share so that, if anyone else facing similar problem in windows environment can get help from it.

1. The certificate generation with custom parameters command should carry double quotes only for Distinguished Name values only. Here is the command that I used to generate my certificates

run.cmd -alfrescoversion community -keysize 2048 -keystoretype JCEKS -truststoretype JCEKS -keystorepass Pass -truststorepass Alfresco -encstorepass Pass -encmetadatapass Pass -cacertdname "/C=IN/ST=Madhya Pradesh/L=Bhopal/O=My Company Name/OU=LLC/CN=Custom Alfresco CA" -repocertdname "/C=IN/ST=Madhya Pradesh/L=Maidenhead/O=My Company Name/OU=LLC/CN=Custom Alfresco Repository" -solrcertdname "/C=IN/ST=Madhya Pradesh/L=Maidenhead/O=My Company Name/OU=LLC/CN=Custom Alfresco Repository Client Solr" -browsercertdname "/C=IN/ST=Madhya Pradesh/L=Maidenhead/O=My Company Name/OU=LLC/CN=Custom Browser Client"

2. This password is also needed to be set in the file server.xml of tomcat at

<Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
    SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https"
    keystoreFile="D:\Projects\alfresco\alf_data\keystore\ssl.keystore"
    keystorePass="Pass" keystoreType="JCEKS"
    secure="true" connectionTimeout="240000"
    truststoreFile="D:\Projects\alfresco\alf_data\keystore\ssl.truststore"
    truststorePass="Pass" truststoreType="JCEKS"
    clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />

Also, note that in above server.xml code, I have set ->

protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"

Using any other value as mentioned in Alfresco install document, gives some sort of protocol error.

3. I have also added attribute -> maxHttpHeaderSize="32768"

to the server.xml file

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
		maxHttpHeaderSize="32768"
               redirectPort="8443" />

4. Apart from that, my alfresco-global.properties file carries following values. Note the double slashes I have used in all windows path. Also, folder name in any path MUST not have any spaces or dots. Use camel case or underscore or dash only.

# Set this property unless you have explicitly chosen to expose some repository APIs without authentication
solr.secureComms=https

#
# Custom content and index data location
#
#dir.root=/srv/alfresco/alf_data
