Booting with Alfresco

[marcel_kobain]

Hello,

I manage to install Alfresco and lauch it manually with the commande .

/alfresco start‍

in my Alfresco directory.

Now I want to launch my Alfresco during the boot of my server.
So I added a link to /op/alfresco/alfresco.sh in my etc/init.d
But It doesn' t work…
Tomcat is launched, but Alfresco is not deployed.

I think the problem is that we can't launch Alfresco in a different directory of the Alfresco main directory.
Linux and Unix : http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Starting_and_Stopping_Alfresco

I try to lauch Alfresco manually with the command /

opt/alfresco/alfresco.sh start‍

from my home directory and I had the same problem (Tomcat Ok, Alfresco NotOK)

Do you know how correct it??

Thanks!

Hi marcel_kobain,
The problem lies in the config file. To fix the problem you are facing you have to uncomment the line which is below:

#dir.root=‍

to

dir.root=/opt/alfresco/alf_data‍

in the /opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-repository.properties file.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Vibhu.
