Publish web project Alfresco

I am new to Alfresco, I was unclear as to manage a portal through alfresco, but I do not see how it is published on the Internet. How is it done?

What I do is to syncronize the alfresco proyect with the portal with rsync.

Using cifs you can use alfresco as if it was an usual directory. So you can synchronize your webfolders of alfresco with the public webfolders.

if you are under windows you can use cwrsync or deltacopy, a graphic tool to manage rsync. Very useful and works fine.

The only problem That I have is that sometimes alfresco fails with the cifs server… but it`s not in my hands…

Good luck.

I've actually found the FTP interface to be a lot more reliable than CIFS, and use a couple of different tools to map it as a filesystem before using some kind of synchronisation software.

For linux, I use CurlFtpFS and rsync

Windows I use NetDrive and SyncBack

Of course, you can also use alfresco's file system deployer if that's suitable for the job

Hi Marcus,
How did you configure CurlFTPFS or how did you map the path to the Alfresco FTP server?

I have tried different combinations and can map it successfully, but whenever I try to copy a file into the FTP server via the map path it will always give an error, "operation not permitted"

I map it like this…

# curlftpfs -o allow_other ftp://admin:admin@alfserver/Alfresco /opt/alf_ftp

and also tried this

# curlftpfs -o allow_other,uid=502 ftp://admin:admin@alfserver/Alfresco /opt/alf_ftp

502 is the uid for a user "admin"

Hope you can enlighten me here.

Thank you very much.

Hi there

I am trying to use NetDrive to connect an user pc with the Alfresco repository by FTP, but it is not possible I always get the "Login Incorrect" error message.

It works with FTP Client softwares like FTP Filezilla Client, to run the action manually (upload or download content)… but not for programs like SyncBack or NetDrive. I make sure the ftp connection is set to "active"…

This is the error I find in the NetDrive Log

Login Failed: Please check the internet connection

any suggestions please?

Thanks
