I am new to installing software on OS X other than using .DMG files (I have used Windows x.x for 18 years…).</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have installed PHP, MySQL, Apache, all works okay and I used the Terminal application to complete some steps for these but from reading the Alfresco 'Simple Installation Guide' I seem to be stuck.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The instructions seems easy to follow but I'm stuck on what may be a really stupid section. It states that I should install Alfresco into /opt/alfresco .. I have searched for this on the system, even unhiding files and folders incase it was hidden to no avail. I then thought I would just create a directory from my home directory ~xxxxxx/opt/alfresco. I unpacked all the Alfresco files and made sure that the alfresco.sh file pointed to the correct directories but when I try to start it, it say's 'command not found'</SPAN><BR /><BR /><STRONG>I'm typing in terminal :</STRONG><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>ken-rainforths-computer:~/opt/alfresco kenrainforth$ sudo ./alfresco.sh start</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Password:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>./alfresco.sh: line 16: /opt/alfresco/tomcat/bin/startup.sh: No such file or directory</SPAN><BR /><BR /><STRONG>This is my alfresco.sh file :</STRONG><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>#!/bin/sh</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN># Start or stop Alfresco server</SPAN><BR /><SPAN># Set the following to where Tomcat is installed</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>APPSERVER=~/opt/alfresco/tomcat</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Home </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>export JAVA_HOME</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>export PATH</SPAN><BR /><SPAN># Set any default JVM values</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>export JAVA_OPTS='-Xms128m -Xmx512m -server'</SPAN><BR /><SPAN># Following only needed for Sun JVMs before to 1.5 update 8</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>export JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/apache/lucene/index/IndexReader\$1,doBody -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/alfresco/repo/search/impl/lucene/index/IndexInfo\$Merger,mergeIndexes -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/alfresco/repo/search/impl/lucene/index/IndexInfo\$Merger,mergeDeletions"</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>#</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>if [ "$1" = "start" ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; "$APPSERVER"/bin/startup.sh</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; if [ -r ./virtual_start.sh ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sh ./virtual_start.sh</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; fi</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; if [ -r ./start_oo.sh ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sh ./start_oo.sh</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; fi</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>elif [ "$1" = "stop" ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; "$APPSERVER"/bin/shutdown.sh</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; if [ -r ./virtual_start.sh ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sh ./virtual_stop.sh</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; fi</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; if [ -r ./start_oo.sh ]; then</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; killall soffice.bin</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp; fi</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>fi</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I really am new to this but any assistance would be most appreciated.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks in advance.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Ken</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 02 Jul 2007 07:55:50 GMT kjrainforth 2007-07-02T07:55:50Z Installing Alfresco on OS X - Help Needed https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/installing-alfresco-on-os-x-help-needed/m-p/84978#M57270 Hi,I have just download Alfresco but am having trouble installing it.
