I Do not know if this is suitable for a productive use, but for I me it is the perfect solution for my homeoffice.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;strong&gt;Before I start, please let me ask you for a favour:&lt;/strong&gt; I am still learning Alfresco, and will continue to do so. My plan is to integrate &lt;strong&gt;tesseract OCR&lt;/strong&gt; for newly added PDFs. I found some hints, but haven't been successful yet. There are a lot of open questions for me (it looks like the way for alfresco 5 is different to V4, for which i found some info). To make it short: if anyone has the files (transformations) that are used (I think I am able to edit them for FreeBSD if they are for linux), can tell where to put them and which actions are to take - it would be great to have this as a step-by-step guide. I spent a lot of time on this without success.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>ok, lets go:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>There are some decisions to maker during install. I decided for MySQL over PostgreSQL, as the latter is difficult to install and keep running over Host system updates in FreeNAS.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>After some searching i found a great install script, which finally worked after preparing the system with the following steps. You will find the script by searching for "andergrim freebsd" on github.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;strong&gt;Prepare a new Jail:&lt;/strong&gt;</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>pkg update<BR />pkg upgrade<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Install nano</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>pkg install nano wget<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Prepare Jail for SSH access:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>service start sshd<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Now set sshd to autostart by setting sshd_enable to "YES" in /etc/rc.conf</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>nano /etc/rc.conf<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Enable SSH over IPv4 by uncommenting&nbsp; ListenAdress 0.0.0.0 in the following file:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>nano /etc/ssh/sshd_conf<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>now add a user for SSH, do not forget to invite to the group wheel when prompted:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>adduser<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;strong&gt;Install the database&lt;/strong&gt;</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>pkg install mysql56-server mysql-connector-java<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>If MySQL is installed, set your MySQL root password (you will need it later)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>mysql -u root -p<BR />passwd<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;strong&gt;Prepare for OpenJDK&lt;/strong&gt;</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Add the following lines to your /etc/fstab by using nano:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>fdesc&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;/dev/fd&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;fdescfs&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;rw&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0<BR />proc&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;/proc&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;procfs&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;rw&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;strong&gt;Install packages needed for Alfresco&lt;/strong&gt;</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>pkg install tomcat7&nbsp; nginx libreoffice liberation-fonts-ttf droid-fonts-ttf ImageMagick-nox11 swftools tex-dvipsk<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>This will make sure you have all the packages needed by Alfresco.

I did exactly what you mentioned but have some trouble setting up Alfresco on FreeBSD (only difference: since LibreOffice is no longer available for FreeBSD I skipped this installation): I can not log in into Alfresco, although after replacing the keystore file with the generate_keystore.sh script. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So first question: Which user is Alfresco expecting to log in the first time? Is it the user created in the jail, the alfresco user or the admin/admin user? </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>You are talking about "one of the main problems after install…", so do you have any other ideas how to solve this login problem?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>[Update]</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Solved the problem. I carefully studied the Tomcat Logfiles end came to a working Alfresco at the end.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:46:04 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/guide-to-install-alfresco-5-0d-on-freebsd-freenas-jail/m-p/290188#M243318 newbe 2016-01-14T11:46:04Z
