Oracle is not supported on Alfresco Community 3.2.
It is supported on Alfresco Enterprise.

Ok, I think I have found the answer…

I found in this topic
http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=17605&start=15
a link to another page where It is explained that from version 3 of Alfresco the extensions for propietaries databases are included only in Alfresco Enterprise releases.

link: http://newton.typepad.com/content/2009/03/building-a-stronger-open-source-product.html

Explicit text:
"We started with Alfresco 3 to put extensions to proprietary databases such as Oracle or SQL Server into the enterprise release only, while extensions to MySQL, Ingres and other open source databases were available in open source"

Then, previous versions to 3 are compatible with propietary databases??

Thanks.

Yes you should be able to get Labs 3B and Labs 3C to work with Oracle.

OK, thank you mrogers now I am using Alfresco 3 Labs Stable…

But now I would want to know where I can download the source code for this version, Alfresco 3 Labs Stable, to use it with eclipse and build it.

Thank you
Alberto

Sorry for my ignorance…

Thank you very much.
