Hi David,

Try to add some contents such as images, documents, flash, etc. at your local alfresco repository.

such as http://localhost:8080/alfresco

login as admin/admin

Add content at Guest Home.

Now you are ready to see images, flashes and documents as links.

Good luck!

Jonas

Thanks, Jonas.

I was actually talking about the download site…but now it's working.

Pulled everything down and trying to set it up. A little confused by the database instructions - seems like they say to create 2 db's called liferay? Should one be called 'alfresco'?

Create database for alfresco in MySQL

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

Create database for liferay in MySQL
create database liferay;
grant all on liferay.* to 'liferay'@'localhost' identified by 'liferay' with grant option;
grant all on liferay.* to 'liferay'@'localhost.localdomain' identified by 'liferay' with grant option;

You are right, there is one error.

The correct one should be:

Create database for alfresco in MySQL
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;

Create database for liferay in MySQL
create database liferay;
grant all on liferay.* to 'liferay'@'localhost' identified by 'liferay' with grant option;
grant all on liferay.* to 'liferay'@'localhost.localdomain' identified by 'liferay' with grant option;

Great. That works, and everything starts ok (apart from a Faces error).

I have added some documents to Alfresco Guest Home using admin/admin, and added the Alfresco portlet to Liferay.

I can't seem to find the documents I added, however.

Also, in this set up do you have to duplicate the users/groups etc. in Liferay and Alfresco?

many thanks!!

David

Hi David

Which kind of portlets: alfresco client? or alfresco content?

If you want to share same users / groups between Liferay and Alfresco, use LDAP for both Liferay and Alfresco.

Good Luck!

Hi Jonas,

I need to show the content available to the particular user in the portlet.

In liferay I logged in as Test/test, opened the Add Content pane, and under CMS selected Alfresco and Alfresco Content.

The contect portlet tells me to contact the admin to set up this portlet. I Click on Select Content and see the User Id/password fields. I set up a Test/test user in Alfresco and when I tent Test/test in the maximised portlet and click Save, I can browse the content beneath.

However, I need it to automatically use the Liferay user/password and show the content that user has permissions for in the Portlet in the Normal state.

Is this possible? Am I missing something?

thanks,

David

the alfresco-content portlet shows predifined content FROM alfresco to the general portal-user (ie not user specific as in relative to logged in user)

the alfresco-portlets (my documents etc) will show the content specific to the user from the corresponding user-parameters within alfresco for the authenticated user.

I myself have not (yet) been able to get the latter portlets to work from within liferay. These portlets can be checked out logging in to alfresco and choosing them for display in 'my alfresco'. Pretty cool if this works in liferay and probably what you mean and need.

Hopefully someone else will address the issues with these portlets for alfresco 2.9 in combination with the latest liferay in a way like the excellent manual for 2.1 and 4.3 was written in the wiki…

Hello,
I tried to access to http://liferay.cignex.com/sesame/ in order to download the file Liferay-Alfresco-REST-Tomcat-6.zip and test liferay / Alfresco REST.
But this web site seems to be offline :cry: . Can anyone give a link where i can find this file.

Thank you by advance.
