Alfresco & Oracle DB - probably JAVA error

[unknown-user]

Hello Alfresco users.

Actually I'm trying to implement an Alfresco Server (based on RedHat) in our existing network environment by an installation over PuTTy.

But there are errors in the log file, I can't really explain or solve. Maybe a more experienced user already knows those messages. It looks like some kind of JAVA dysfunction. If you need anymore information on the local systems, ask me please. Although there are a lot of log entries in the catalina.out - TOMCAT is already active and reachable. Alfresco is not.

2nd question would be, if I do need to use ImageMagick, or is it more like an extra gimmick? And if I don't need it, is it possible to suppress these error messages in the log?

alfresco.log

solved

catalina.out

solved

I'll be grateful for any kind of help. Thanks in advance.

The error:

java.rmi.AlreadyBoundException: alfresco/jmxrmi]
java.io.IOException: Cannot bind to URL [rmi://localhost:50500/alfresco/jmxrmi]: javax.naming.NameAlreadyBoundException: alfresco/jmxrmi [Root exception is java.rmi.AlreadyBoundException: alfresco/jmxrmi]

Suggest that some other process on the server (another jboss/tomcat?) is already using port 50500 - which is used as the default JNDI port.

You do not require Imagemagik if you do not need image transformation in Alfresco.

Thanks,

Hi kevinr.

Thanks for your hint. Your right, the problem was a second pending instance of tomcat. These problems are solved now.

The unpleasant result are new difficulties that I can't stop. Let's have a look at the logfile.

I already tried to solve the problem by deleting the folders in 'alf_data/lucene-indexes' and rebuilding the indexes with the ('index.recovery.mode=FULL') command. Unfortunately I received the same error (CONTENT INTEGRITY ERROR: Indexes not found for 5 stores) again, right after restarting the first time without this command. The 'dir.root' I use, is the default folder 'alf_data' which is already built by the software. The only difference is, that I changed the path in the .properties file to the full path (/opt/alfresco/alf_data). Interesting could also be that the contentstore folder at @alf_data is completely empty.

May be somebody knows how to solve these problems?

Again, I'm thankful for any hint.

Okay, Server is up and running. Re-Installed the whole thing and a reset of the Oracle-DB helped solving the problem.
