AlfrescoLabs 3c fails in ADMLuceneIndexerImpl [SOLVED]

Hi all,I've downloaded and installed the WAR version of Alfrescolabs 3c, and have tried installing it in Tomcat 5, running on Gentoo Linux with JDK 1.5, but I'm having some problems.On startup for the first time, I get the following errors:16:30:02,853 ERROR [util.exec.RuntimeExecBootstrapBean] Boo

I'm still having issues with this, despite having tried some fresh re-installations of Alfresco.

I have also tried switching on lucene debugging options, which doesn't appear to show much of interest, though does find some invalid files (at least, the debug displays "invalid = true" on the 2nd line shown below). Since this is all debug, I assume it's pretty normal behaviour however.

Has anyone got Alfresco 3c working in a shared Tomcat environment? If so, did you do anything other than what is listed on the following wiki page:

Thanks,
Sam.

Following the instructions at

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Install_Shared_Tomcat

got Alfresco up and running no problems. What else do you have installed in your Tomcat installation?

What else do you have installed in your Tomcat installation?

About half a dozen small webapps of my own, nothing particularly intrusive. They all use MySQL, but that's about it.

Did you do anything with the libmysqltcl.so in the extras? Is it needed?

Sam.

Quick steps;

1. Untar tomcat.
2. Untar alfresco 3c war.
3. Copy alfresco.war to webapps.
4. Copy the following from extensions folder: custom-hibernate-dialetc.properties, custom-repository-context.xml, custom-repository.properties to shared/classes/alfresco/extension. Edit as required.
5. Double check permissions for alf_data directory.
6. Copy mysql jar to tomcat/common/lib.
7. Copy over endorsed directory to tomcat/common/endorsed.
8. Export CATALINA_OPTS="-server".
9. Start it up.

Try undeploying all your small apps and see if it works. Then deploy the small apps one at a time.

Installing it into a fresh installation of Tomcat fixed the problem, but probably not in the way you think… The new installation actually failed completely to talk to the database, giving nothing but connection errors (same machine, same user, same database as before). Whilst troubleshooting that, I realised that I was using version 3 of the MySQL connector, rather than the version 5 recommended by Alfresco.

Switching to version 5 didn't fix the new install (it still doesn't work, but I'm blaming that for now on the complete mess Gentoo has made of the file system layout for Tomcat 5.5/6), but it did fix the old installation.

So thanks for the suggestions.

Sam.
