Hello,

I have configured Alfresco and the web front end works but now I want to configure Alfresco ftp server:
I have the following entries in /usr/share/tomcat/tomcat-2/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties:


[…]

### FTP Server Configuration ###
ftp.enabled=true
ftp.port=1121
ftp.ipv6.enabled=false

[…]


But the ftp server seems not to work. When I try to connect to ftp localhost:1121/alfresco
I get the following error : ftp: localhost:1121/alfresco: Name or service not known

I really don't know what to do now ? Can somebody help me ?
Thanks in advance.

If you are installing alfresco on your own instance of tomcat 6 then you also need to set the "shared loader."   (normally in catalina.properties) to include your "shared" folder.   I suspect that's missing.

I have already setted
shared.loader
in
catalina.properties
. Here is the line I've added :


[…]
shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar
[…]


Any idea why my alfresco configuration is not loaded ?
Thanks in adavance.

Have you checked the value of catalina.base?   I suspect its /usr/share/tomcat6.    Your instances are at tomcat-1 and tomcat-2

Thanks you, but how can I check the value of catalina.base ?
I changed the catalina.base value in
/etc/sysconfig/tomcat-1
and
/etc/sysconfig/tomcat-2
.

I follow this to create my instances : http://www.openlogic.com/wazi/bid/188102/How-to-Run-Multiple-Instances-of-Tomcat-on-a-Single-Server
