Cannot start Share (new User Interface)

bgl — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:08:36 GMT

Hi,I'm using the latest svn checkout of the trunk (currently revision 2652). After building the share war, I try to deploy it under my tomcat (version 6.0.14). Java is 1.5.0_14-b03 under linux (Fedora core).When tomcat starts (I have alfresco and share in the same tomcat), alfresco starts with no pr

Hi

There should be an alfresco.log file containing more information - please post the contents of that and hopefully the solution will present itself.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

I never use this log file since I see the same trace at startup as in catalina.out. This is the case here again. I have remove logs before restarting tomcat so I am sure I have all traces for this run. This is the content of alfresco.log :

Is it mandatory to have a valid CIFS configuration for getting share working ? how do I specify location of Alfresco for the UI ?

thank you

Boris

The Share interface doesn't use CIFS at all - just the repo tier ("/alfresco")

It's not obvious what isn't working here, but please note that Tomcat 6 isn't officially supported yet (there are some notes on our wiki about it).

webscript-framework-config.xml contains the URL of the repository (localhost:8080/alfresco/s) by default.

It seemed strange to me that this could use the cifs but since it is the only error I have in my logs…

Thank you for the answer Mike.

Anyone is running the share interface with this version ?

Just FYI, I'm seeing the exact same error in the logs… alfresco starts fine, but share always gives a listenerStart error and fails to load… have you had any luck getting yours going or determining the cause?

Re: Cannot start Share (new User Interface)

bgl — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 14:46:34 GMT

I didn't work anymore on it. It should work as it is (in my opinion) so we can test it and report problems (or congratulate for the new great interface :wink: )
I think there is a problem in head. Which svn revision are you using ?

Re: Cannot start Share (new User Interface)

mikeh — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 19:29:55 GMT

Although it's possible that HEAD might be temporarily unstable, it's highly unusual for a nightly distribution not to work - as the build server deploys the applications in order to run the 1600+ unit tests and only updates the server on successful test completion.

Note that we don't officially support Tomcat 6 yet - please try again with 5.5, or carefully read the wiki regarding version 6.

Thanks,
Mike

thank you for re-posting the remark about Tomcat 5.5. I have downloaded it, deployed and it is working :wink:

About unit tests you mention, I would like to point you this post ( http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=13839 ) where I say that some unit tests do not work since (at least) version 1040 -I am under Linux (Fedora)- . After fixing the first problem and posting fix on forum, I had no feedback (fix integrated or not) but another test fails. Do you have the same tests that fail in enterprise (they should I guess) ? if those tests are outdated, may be they should be removed -or updated- since it is blocking for making automating tests/validations.

To run unit tests, I use the target "test". Am I missing something ? (may I start a new thread for this ?)

Thanks about the tip on Tomcat !

Hi,

on starting tests through ant task, I also encountered a lots of issues, since I guess some tests are platform dependant, especially those concerning CIFS. I'm not sure but I also guess that tests assume a MySql DB to work fine. I successfully start filtered suite of tests : I removed those which were looking based on Windows resources (like DLL). But the fact is that, on a Windows machine, i doesn't work either just using "test" target.
By the way, I worked on V2.2 Enterprise, but it seems symptoms are the same.
