Alfresco Windows User limit

I just want to know if there is a user limit in alfresco. For eg if you have more than some number of users it gives problems in connecting to alfresco. I would request an alfresco engineer to answer this question. ThanksAyush

Hi,

Alfresco does have a configured limit of DB connections that you can modify in 'custom-repository.properties using the following statements:


db.pool.initial=10 - set your initial value here
db.pool.max=100 - set your max value here
‍‍‍‍

Be aware that your App Server and Database may also have limits on the number of connections etc, but these can be increased to suit your environment.

Hope this helps,

Steve

So how did I increase the limit of the number of connections in the app server i.e what do u exactly mean by the app server.

Thanks for the previous reply. Appreciate it. Waiting for the response of this one too….and where is the custom-repository.properties file located.

Hello,

The app server is what you run the Alfresco war file in - usally Tomcat or Jboss (but also includes others).

The best place to get the information is the online documentation for these app servers.

Take a look in our wiki for info on extensions and how to override the default values:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Repository_Configuration
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Database_Configuration

Remember that your DB might have a connection limit too.
