and then start.

removed the file
/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/catalina.pid

and issued the command
./alfresco.sh start

/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/mysql/scripts/ctl.sh : mysql (pid 28513) already running

/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat started

but still after 1 hour

http://myServer.com:8080

doesn't respond with the Tomcat page

and

http://myServer.com:8080/share

doesn't respond either. Does it take longer?

the alfresco.log file is

cat alfresco.log

Alfresco Community-3.4.d
CentOS

Alfresco was running fine until the power was cut from our server.

I have the stated problem above partly resolved. I used the Windows rule of thumb and did a soft boot on the Linux server. That got tomcat working and cleared up some other unrelated problems.

I then restarted alfresco

./alfresco.sh start

/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/mysql/scripts/ctl.sh : mysql (pid 2424) already running
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/java
Using CLASSPATH:       /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar
PID file (/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/temp/catalina.pid) found. Is Tomcat still running? Start aborted.
/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat could not be started

But tomcat is running as I can pull up the tomcat page

http://myServer.com:8080

and get the Alfresco Share login page. But when logging in as admin I get the familiar

"The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized"

window. And Alfresco Explorer gives the

HTTP Status 404 …

page.

I haven't played with any of the configurations so I'm guessing some stuff was left when the power went out and need to be deleted?

I was going through the alfresco log and found this section

How do I address the issue with the indexes and where are they?
