ERROR System content not found in content store

[fghoche]

Hello,

I am trying to install Alfresco with Tomcat and MySQL.

After much cleaning I still have this error I am struggling with. I have looked in the docs, the wiki and searched the forum. I have erased the alf_data dir tree and killed the database and rebuit-it; and also used the param FULL to rebuild the Lucene indexes…

Perhaps somebody can point me in a direction I have not investigated yet.

This is a Windows 2000 SP4 test PC with 750MB RAM, JRE 1.5.0_12, Tomcat 5.5, MySQL 5.0.45, Alfresco 2.1

JAVA_HOME is set to the JRE dir alright.

Here are the log and config files:

Alfresco.log from the last run:

My previous tests on a laptop went on fine with the default HSQL database setup, but now I need to set up a real world demonstrator with a MySQL database on this PC.

Any help appreciated

Hello,
I had exactly the same problem. The reason seems to be the unsynchronized content of the database index (MySQL and Lucene) and the data repository.
I could solve the problem by creating new repositories from the scratch. I did it in following steps in this order:
1. Delete the MySQL database using db_remove.sql
2. Create a new empty database using db_setup.sql
3. Create a new data root directory and put the path into the parameter dir.root in the repository.properties file (in tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco)
4. Change the value of the parameter index.recovery.mode in the same file into FULL
5. Start Alfresco with the MySQL configuration

The index is rebuilt and fits to the empty data store. After that it should work.

Hi Christoph,

Thanks for your reply.

I have done precisely that a couple times already. Or should I say, I am almost sure it was in the same order, but I will give it another try, now that I know it did work for you…

In the meantime, I have also gone another direction: I have set up a clean virtual machine with Virtual Box on my laptop, installed the whole stack with Alfresco and the setup went much more smoothly.

Now I am strugling with CIFS. I can get it to work within the VM in Windows Explorer, but not in in the host computer or a client, whether with Explorer or Firefox.

But I will start another thread if I can't make it work.

Christoph,

I'm assuming this is all very nice if you have no content at all (empty database).

In my case, I cannot afford to lose all the content

What would you recommend? I have the same issue.
