Cannot install Workdesk Community

[plguevara]

Hi
I just installed Alfresco Community 4.2.d on windows
I downloaded Alfresco Workdesk Community (alfresco-workdesk-community-4.1.1.0-2013-08-01-dist.zip)unzipped it and I copied all the workdesk folder to (Tomcat)\webapps
I modified the (Workdesk)WEB-INF\web.xml
commented

<!– <param-value>deploy#WEB-INF/conf/opencmis_trial</param-value> –>
‍‍‍

uncommented

<param-value>deploy#WEB-INF/conf/opencmis</param-value>
‍‍‍

When I go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/workdesk/
I get a tomcat error:

Estado HTTP 404 - /workdesk/

——————————————————————————–

type Informe de estado

mensaje /workdesk/

Apache Tomcat/7.0.30

Please help

Hi plguevara,

You just followed the deployment steps correctly and this should work.

Are you using the same Tomcat that comes with Alfresco Community? Did you stop Tomcat before copying the workdesk folder into the Tomcat webapps folder? Have you configured port 8080 for this Tomcat while installing Alfresco Community? You wrote you copied all the workdesk folder, does that mean you copied bin/workdesk from the extracted zip file or you copied the complete extracted zip file? You just need to copy bin/workdesk to Tomcat/webapps.

Sometimes Tomcat needs a while until it fully finished deploying a web application. Can you access http://127.0.0.1:8080/share or is this also not available?

Thanks a lot
My problema was that I did NOT stop tomcat before coying the files

After a complete reboot and after a long waiting time (because of Tomcat I supose) it is working now

Thanks
