Hi,
In /opt/alfresco/tomcat/webapps there should be a file called 'alfresco.war' - this is what http"//localhost:8080/alfresco should work against - and the configuration of this is automatic, you don't have to change any config files to get Alfresco to work.

What does the catalina.out file show?

There is a file called alfresco.war. I changed the default directory back to webapps just to make sure and still nothing. The first time you try to go to the website it takes forever to get page cannot be displayed. Here is what the catalina.out says.

Hi,

Your error indicates that you have already started Tomcat but with incorrect configuration (as you have already explained).
What you need to do is drop your Alfresco tablespace (catalog) and recreate it.
Also remove any sub-directories of your 'alf_data' directory/

Then start Tomcat - and it should work.

Re: Linux Install new to Alfresco

dgrammer — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 03:30:26 GMT

what do you mean by drop the tablespace and recreate it?

Re: Linux Install new to Alfresco

steve — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 10:40:42 GMT

Hi,

You can use a tool such as the MySQL Administrator to drop the catalog, or execute sql statements in MySQL.
First, execute:

drop database alfresco;
revoke all privileges, grant option from 'alfresco'@'localhost';
drop user 'alfresco'@'localhost';

then execute:

create database alfresco;
grant all on alfresco.* to 'alfresco'@'localhost' identified by 'alfresco' with grant option;
grant all on alfresco.* to 'alfresco'@'localhost.localdomain' identified by 'alfresco' with grant option;

Note, these commands should be found in a couple of files in the 'extras\databases\mysql' directory of the zip file you downloaded.

Hope this helps,

Steve

Re: Linux Install new to Alfresco

That is what I thought you meant. I ran the db_remove.sql and then ran the db_setup.sql to recreate the databases. I also removed the subfolders under the alf_data and restarted alfresoc and still having the same problem.

Re: Linux Install new to Alfresco

kumbach — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 21:12:28 GMT

I had this error yesterday after moving a test Alfresco database to a new MySQL server. The error indicated in the log was "A previous schema upgrade failed. blah blah blah"

I dropped the database as per previous posts and deleted the alf data directory, but the problem didn't go away. Good thing this was in our test environment.

The source of the problem turned out to be the database userid Alfresco was using to connect to the MySQL database. I was using a different userid that wasn't granted the ability to create tables therefore Alfresco couldn't initialize the tables.

You might want to check into that to see if it helps you too.
