you need to make the directory if it does not exist. shared/classes/web-extension

And make sure you change the catalina.properties to have shared/classes on the shared.loader.

Also create your share-config-custom.xml and put your overrides in there.

Hi mrogers,

Thanks for the response, I've only just got the time to come back to this.

I have created the directories and I have shared/classes on the share.loader,

shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar‍

and I have changed share-config-custom.xml to use the separate server instead of localhost where I thought it was needed. It's still not working.

When tomcat starts I receive the following error, I'm not sure whether it is significant or not.

 log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException:  share.log (Permission denied) ‍‍

Let me know if the complete logs are required and I'll figure out how to get them, they're on an isolated system in a vDC so I can't copy and paste them here.

Please let me know if there are any major steps that I have missed here, I'll try and outline what I have so far.

1. Alfresco and Share both running on a machine in network 10.10.10.0/24
2. The Share.war that has been exploded out on machine in network 10.10.0.0/24
3. I have followed the steps on the website (link in first post) as well as the steps from mrogers. (I'm not entirely sure what you mean by 'overrides' in the share-config-custom.xml. Again, I can post this file if it will be of assistance)
4. alfresco-global.configuration set to use the remote Share machine
5. Both machines restarted

Kind regards,
Ed
