Hi,

Installing Alfresco into a directory path with a space in it's name could be causing this issue.
Try alfresco in c:\alfresco to see if that works.

Hope this helps,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Actually, with some help I have solved this problem. It turned out that in directory C:\Program Files\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF, file web.xml was missing (and possibly other files as well). The reason for this is unknown, but is possibly that the install was interrupted. In any event, after directory C:\Program Files\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps was manually deleted, this forced it to be redeployed - and the problem disappeared.

So "C:\Program Files\Alfresco" works (with the embedded space - on Windows).

Thanks for your suggestion. It seems, though, that to be robust, the Alfresco Install process should check for this sort of thing. I needed help to discover the missing file(s) - I would never have discovered it on my own. And obviously the Install process did not discover it either. If this happens so easily, others will probably experience this issue too.

Same exact thing just happened to me. I have no idea why web.xml was not present. I know I did not edit it. I got the same error though. Fortunately, as described above, i deleted the \tomcat\webapps\alfresco directory, restarted alfresco, and allowed tomcat (i guess) to unpack alfresco.war thus recreating the alfresco directory with the missing web.xml file.
