Broken alfresco installation

marvintje — Mon, 26 Jul 2021 09:07:31 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem with an installation of Alfresco. First of all, I am new to Alfresco, so if I ask some noob questions, please don´t blame me

I have a organisation that came to me with a broken installation of Alfresco, version 4.2c. It´s a standalone installation, without docker. Installed on Ubuntu 12.04.

The Alfresco instance doesn´t work at all anymore. When I try to start it, it shows:

user01@cms01:/opt/alfresco$ sudo ./alfresco.sh start
/opt/alfresco/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat (pid 1731) already running

When you try to open the Alfresco page, it takes ages, and then it doesn´t load (Keeps loading forever).

When I try to stop Alfresco it shows this:

user01@cms01:/opt/alfresco$ sudo ./alfresco.sh stop
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/alfresco/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /opt/alfresco/java
Using CLASSPATH:       /opt/alfresco/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/opt/alfresco/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
Using CATALINA_PID:    /opt/alfresco/tomcat/temp/catalina.pid

Where do I need to start to get this solved? We've looked multiple hours/days into this problem, without any succes.

I've also tried to get a new install (docker), and import the databse, but when importing the old databse to the new installation, it throws a lot of errors (I think they are not compatible).

If you have installed Alfresco manually or upgraded from a previous version of Alfresco, you might not This indicates a broken MS-Office deployment.

The issue lies to this error:

/opt/alfresco/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat (pid 1731) already running

Try killing the Pid instead and see if it works.

sudo kill -9 {PID}

e.g.: sudo kill -9 1731

If possible, share the logs or try to navigate through logs and what could have caused the failure. Also see if there is any system service configured which may be starting the instance and you are trying to start it again via 'alfresco.sh' script.

Try runnin the command to see if you get any details:

sudo systemctl status {PID}

e.g: sudo systemctl status 1731

As a last resort try rebooting the instance.

Both of you, thanks for the reply.

You mean libre office or open office?

Killing the PID and then starting doesn't work.

The error clearly says that one or the other ports are already in use on your server. Try Rebooting the ubuntu machine (i am not sure if you have already tried), if tried already -- it looks like some or the other processes are alfready using port 7070 (as mentioned in error log). Try to change the ports.

Do you mind sharing the server.xml from tomcat and alfresco-global.properties here?

Re: Broken alfresco installation

Hi,

Yes I've already restarted the Ubuntu server multiple times.

The port in use error was some older error I see now. It isn't showing up anymore.

The server.xml:

Re: Broken alfresco installation

abhinavmishra14 — Tue, 27 Jul 2021 15:20:16 GMT

i don't see any reference to the port in configuration which is good. Good that at least one error is gone.

Your global properties also doesn't show any reference to CIFS. But seems cifs is enabled.

Try disabling the cifs and see you still see the error "[SMB] Server error : org.alfresco.jlan.server.config.InvalidConfigurationException: Error initializing TCP-IP SMB session handler, Address already in use":

cifs.enabled=false

You can also checkout these docs:

https://blog.arvixe.com/cifs-support-in-alfresco/

https://docs.alfresco.com/content-services/5.2/config/file-servers/

Re: Broken alfresco installation

marvintje — Wed, 28 Jul 2021 08:13:07 GMT

I've set the cifs.enabled to false.

I see it still trows the port error.

	at org.alfresco.module.vti.VtiServer.onBootstrap(VtiServer.java:218)

But, when I do:
sudo lsof -i:7070
It shows:

COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
java 3536 root 525u IPv6 12887 0t0 TCP *:7070 (LISTEN)

But I think that is started by the ./alfresco.sh start command, because that entry (of lsof -i:7070) shows up, when I try to open the alfresco page.

Re: Broken alfresco installation

marvintje — Wed, 28 Jul 2021 09:24:18 GMT

I've made some progress. I've changed the maximum java memory size.
The server isn't forever loading now. It shows some things:

On http://hostname:8080 it shows a default tomcat page.
On http://hostname:8080/alfresco it shows a login page, and I can login on it.
However, on http://hostname:8080/share/page it shows:

A problem has occured.
This page could not be rendered:
slingshot-login
Please notify your system administrator.

I've looked this up on Google, and a stackoverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8087162/alfresco-share-error) post telled me to do:

stop the Alfresco server
delete the expanded directories tomcat/webapps/alfresco and tomcat/webapps/share
delete tomcat/temp/*
delete tomcat/work/*
start Alfresco again

I've done this, without any succes.

What to do/try now? The alfresco.log file still shows the VtiServer port error.

The share.log shows this error:

The port in use error was some older error I see now. It isn't showing up anymore.

In last post you mentioned that the port issue is resolved. Looks like it is still the same issue.

You are using very old version and i can't find any documentation related to this but since it keeps complaining about the port 7070, can you try adding the following config to your alfresco-global.properties and see if that picks up. Choose a different port.

vti.server.port=7071
vti.server.external.port=7071

Found some info here for changing the vtiserver port here: https://blyx.com/2014/06/02/where-and-how-to-change-any-alfresco-related-port/

Hi guys,

for those who have trouble with port 7070 already in use, please confirm if you have ANYDESK - remote desktop access software instaled. This software uses port 7070 and then when alfresco start and try to start vtiserver return that error of port already in use.

It happened to me.
