The contents of the alfresco.log file would likely tell us more. Are you able to post it here (or at least a snippet that captures all of the errors)?

Cheers,

project:/opt/Alfresco# cat /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost

hello all,

hoping for a bounce on this thread. Im facing the Exact same problem.

Im running Alfresco 3.2.0 E on SLES11(virtualized)
The error that I get every time that I start alfresco is

error creating bean with name org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiServiceExporter‍

I have tried everything that I could find as a solution to this problem on the internet but nothing seems to be taking the problem away.

Help!!

Please post enough of the stack trace to enable us to help.

And what's SLES11(virtualised)?

Have you changed your hosts file?

hey mrogers,

sorry for the late reply. I got the issue resolved. It was a problem with the hosts file.

I had changed it before I was getting the error too but I guess I didn't do it properly. Is a problem with running alfresco on virtualized SLES(suse linux enterprise server)?? because I was indeed using the virtualized instance(XEN kernel)
