Error message when running Alfresco 1.4

org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Failed to authenticate as Guest user.

Any thoughts ?

Hello,

Are you running the Enterprise version with a valid license (not a trial license)?

We have encoundered a scenario where the license details 'go missing' and this causes the repository to switch to read-only mode.

With a trial license!

Hello,

Has your trial license expired? - again this causes the repository to enter read-only mode.

Since you are a partner you can get a proper license for your Alfresco software. Just contact us.

Only downloaded 1.4 yesterday, so the trial license can't have expired, can it?

[steve]

Ah, probably not!

The license could of expired, if you installed v1.4 against an existing alfresco repository.  The license is linked to the repository data store.  But again, that's unlikely.
