alfresco-global.properties not taken into account

fo1337 — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 17:39:33 GMT

I'm evaluating the new 3.2 preview #2 release, and I'm trying to use the new configuration infrastructure. We're supposed to edit the new alfresco-global.properties instead of the separate .properties.I've copied the sample alfresco-global.properties into my shared class path, per the Wiki instructi

It's working for me now. I couldn't get mine working because it was in the extensions folder, not the classes folder. If you are using Tomcat 6 which I imagine you are with 3.2 make sure the shared.loader catalina.properties is set. There is a WIKI entry on it, not sure the URL right now.

I installed from the Linux installer, so yes I have Tomcat 6. I put the file under the classes folder, and I have checked the shared.loader in catalina.properties, and its value looks OK, namely shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar

It was set up right out of the box.

Is this what you have?

One more piece of information, it seems like my alfresco-global.properties file is detected, but its content is not taken into account. Could it be that the "legacy" configuration files get loaded AFTER the global file and thus replace the values I set for them? Here is the log:

To complete the report, here are all the files might be relevant:

After a fresh installation of the latest 3.2 nightly build of the Linux installer (dated June 18 2009), any property in alfresco-global.properties fails to be taken into account. Tested with changing the default alf_data path to alf_data_test with no effect, and also tested with changing from a derby database to a mysql database, again no effect. Tried commenting out all default properties from the legacy custom-repository.properties and custom-hibernate-dialect.properties files, no effect. Here are the relevant files:

You must have overriden your dataSource and configured an invalid validationQuery for Oracle.

I'm still wondering what exactly pravat's post has to do with my issue…

Anyway, I'm still unable to have 3.2 read the alfresco-global.properties file. It's like the legacy files are read after the new file, overwriting the values. Have a look at

https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALFCOM-3100

and

https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALFCOM-3167

Unfortunately the first bug report was dismissed as working in latest version, but even after upgrading to latest SVN, still not working. Please note that I'm running this under Linux, this might be a factor.

Do not use a mixture of alfresco-global.properties and legacy config as this will cause conflicts as you have found. Either continue using custom-repository-context.xml and its associated files, or remove the override of the repository-properties bean and start using alfresco-global.properties.

For me, tomcat was looking in <home>/shared/classes/ rather than what I expected: <home>/share/classes/alfresco/extension/. Perhaps the file shouldn't be in the "extensions/extension" directory of the WAR distribution?
