In your share.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco folder… there are various XML files that references port 8080. You may want to change that to your custom port.

You can override the port that Share expects to find the Alfresco webapp running on - the Share application makes HTTP connections back to the Alfresco server instance - by default it is 8080 so the poster above is correct.

Look for the file: \tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\web-extension\webscript-framework-config-custom.xml

Ahh..my oversight. I forgot the overriding capabilities. Thanks Kevin.

Hi,
Could you please detail a bit further these re-writing capabilities…?

I have the same log in problem with Share but I didn't change the Tomcat 8080 port. I'm running on a different tomcat (not the one bundled with Alfresco) and with an Apache connector to port 80.

The firewall is configured to allow all internal traffic and I've also tested disabling it… therefore I can access Share on port 8080 and 80 and the result is the same, can't log in.

Could it be because I deployed share.war not at the same time than alfresco.war?

This is how my alfresco.log looks like at start up.

Is there a way to debug the alfresco authentication to figure out where the problem with /share is?

Re: can login to /alfresco but i can't login to /share

kevinr — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 10:37:18 GMT

Log looks fine. Can you explain again what you have deployed where and using what ports? i.e. Alfresco and Share on separate tomcats? Which ports are they using? Try taking Apache Proxy out of the equation first to get it working, then trying adding it back in.

Re: can login to /alfresco but i can't login to /share

dpa_74 — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 13:39:39 GMT

Alfresco and Share are installed in the same Tomcat instance. That is the Tomcat bundled with Scalix that comes with the Apache module proxy_ajp pre-configured, listening on port 8009.
Tomcat is running on 8080 and Apache on 80. Therefore it's accessible both ways, http://server:8080/share or http://server/share. The result (failed authentication for /share) is the same. Alfresco (/alfresco) works flawlessly in both ports, as well as the Scalix mail apps.

You have a very good point about taking the proxy_ajp and apache out of the equation. Although accessing http://server:8080/share (tomcat directly) should have the same effect. Shouldn't it? I can give it a try to make install a fresh/standard tomcat instance and redeploy there.

Looking at the wiki http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Install_Shared_Tomcat, looks really simple (except step 2, which I skiped because the files in <Alfresco_Root>/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco are already deployed in /var/opt/scalix/h9/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco).
I wonder if there may be something else on the tomcat configuration/pre-requisities that I'm missing…

I understand there's a single user store and authentication (unless I modify the default authentication). Meaning that Alfresco users can directly log in into Share. That should also be valid for the default admin (user: admin / pwd: admin). Is that right, or an Alfresco user needs to be flagged somewhere as a Share user…?

Re: can login to /alfresco but i can't login to /share

kevinr — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 18:37:43 GMT

Deploying both Share and Alfresco into the same tomcat is actually the default for our prepackaged bundles when we do release. But we don't have Apache in the equation. The Share web-app uses HTTP as the communication mechanism between itself and the main Alfresco server - no matter where it's deployed - and the key is making sure it's pointing to the correct port for the Alfresco webapp - which by default is set to 8080.

You could turn on some debugging logging for share in your log4j.properties as that might shed some light on why it cannot connect - it will definitely be port/connection related as you are correct in saying that Share users are nothing special in Alfresco - they use the same Person/User objects and if you can login to Alfresco you can login to Share.

try these:

log4j.logger.org.alfresco.web.scripts.servlet.EndPointProxyServlet=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.web.scripts.RemoteStore=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.connector=debug

Thanks,

Kevin

I've added your debug entries at the end of the file in tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties. There's another log4j.properties in …/share/… which one is the right one?
After tomcat re-start, debug appears to kick in, as the log file shows… but nothing shows up in alfresco.log following the authentication attempts.

Finally I got the debugging running and you were right… the connector can't connect … see the log below.

Any ideas?

there's currently no firewall and I wouldn't know how to tweak Tomcat to allow/block this traffic but it must be somewhere in tomcat's configuration I guess because as you suggested, I also tested in a standard Tomcat (bundled with Suse) and it worked.

Re: can login to /alfresco but i can't login to /share

Hi,

I am using alfresco / share 3.4 and I managed to install Alfresco smoothly.
First, I was using the default app path configuration: http://localhost:8080/alfresco and http://localhost:8080/share. With this configuration, I could login into Share with Alfresco users.
However, I needed to change the path to http://localhost:8080/es/alfresco and http://localhost:8080/share but now I can only login into Alfresco Explorer and not into Share. I get this error: "The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized."

Do you have any idea where I can change the Share configuration to look into the new path?

Cheers!

Yes, assuming a standard setup, you will have:
tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\web-extension\share-config-custom.xml

Enable (remove XML comments) around the Remote section on changing the ports, and update the endpoint-url to the new alfresco url e.g.

   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Remote">
      <remote>
         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco-noauth</id>
            <name>Alfresco - unauthenticated access</name>
            <description>Access to Alfresco Repository WebScripts that do not require authentication</description>
            <connector-id>alfresco</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/es/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <identity>none</identity>
         </endpoint>

         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco</id>
            <name>Alfresco - user access</name>
            <description>Access to Alfresco Repository WebScripts that require user authentication</description>
            <connector-id>alfresco</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/es/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <identity>user</identity>
         </endpoint>

         <endpoint>
            <id>alfresco-feed</id>
            <name>Alfresco Feed</name>
            <description>Alfresco Feed - supports basic HTTP authentication via the EndPointProxyServlet</description>
            <connector-id>http</connector-id>
            <endpoint-url>http://localhost:8080/es/alfresco/s</endpoint-url>
            <basic-auth>true</basic-auth>
            <identity>user</identity>
         </endpoint>
      </remote>
   </config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
I installed Alfresco Explorer and Share based on war files and did not used the standard installation.
However, I could find the share-config.xml file.
The Remote section did not exist. I created one like your example and it worked

Thanks again.

Hi,
I tried all the options suggested and still not able to login to /share. Additionally, I am not even prompted with authentication credentials when I try to access /alfresco. Please help, am new to Alfresco and running it on ubuntu 11.04.

Thanks
Venkat

Yes - unfortunately there's very little anyone can help you with without some more detail.

Thanks,

What do I do with the last block?
