topic Need Advice on 2.0 Re-Install/DeBug in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/need-advice-on-2-0-re-install-debug/m-p/82332#M55148 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>We are about to reinstall 2.0 on Ubuntu, Tomcat 5.5 &amp; MySQL, after not having any luck ridding the system of errors that looked a lot like timeout issues with the DB. I didn't do the initial install, but under moderatly heavy use the system kept crashing and a Tomcat restart would fix it for a while. We did a manual WAR install and are going to rip out all Alfresco files, but leave the DB.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>My question is this: After studying the Install notes for myself, I read this:</SPAN><BR /><A href="http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Repository_Configuration#New_Installations" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Repository_Configuration#New_Installations</A><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I found we weren't using ANY of the 3 files mentioned here so when the server was started for the first time WIITHOUT them, did it just use other config files for these settings? (documentation doesn't speak of this)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Can I remedy this without a full reinstall? </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>NOTE: We placed the custom-repository.properties sample file, removing the .sample, in the proper Tomcat shared folder but the file is not getting read on a Tomcat Re-Start. (we broke the XML syntax to test, and there were no errors in the log so we assume it's not being read)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks Much.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Paul</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 12 Jun 2007 17:57:51 GMT nuro 2007-06-12T17:57:51Z Need Advice on 2.0 Re-Install/DeBug https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/need-advice-on-2-0-re-install-debug/m-p/82332#M55148 Hi,We are about to reinstall 2.0 on Ubuntu, Tomcat 5.5 &amp; MySQL, after not having any luck ridding the system of errors that looked a lot like timeout issues with the DB.
