If you are running the installer on the command-line make sure the current user has execute permissions on that file. Also, if you are installing on the command-line and do not have the ability to display a GUI, make sure you run with the –mode text option.

You should be able to install using a WAR-only approach if you cannot get the installer to work or if you'd just prefer that anyway. This page on docs.alfresco.com sounds like it is for Enterprise-only but it will work with Community.

The high-level steps for a manual installation are:
1. Create a shared class loader and update Tomcat config
2. Edit $TOMCAT_HOME/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties to match your requirements
3. Make sure your database driver is in $TOMCAT_HOME/lib
4. Make sure serializer.jar and xalan.jar are in $TOMCAT_HOME/endorsed
5. Make sure dependencies such as pdf2swf, convert (ImageMagick), and OpenOffice are installed and configured in alfresco-global.properties

Once you get that set up and your repository is running, I'd recommend that you use the OpenCMIS Java API from your web application to execute CRUD operations against the repository.
