FirstFoundationClient

[pablo_zapico]

How to run the sample because of the sdk FirstFoundationClient.java gives this error:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'luceneFullTextSearchIndexer' defined in class path resource [alfresco/core-services-context.xml]

Do I need to configure anything?

This seems to be an incredibly common problem, and you'll find many similar forum threads or blog posts scattered around the web.

1 - Have you followed the instructions here : http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_SDK#Install_2.9_Community_Edition_Alfresco ?

2 - If you have then you will have noticed this : " 3 SDK is broken (THis seems to be outdated - see here for details) ". This actually means Alfresco is allowing (and actually encouraging…) people to download a version that actually doesn't work, or at least has a workaround that you have to dig around to find.

According to what I've foudn out, you first have to check your 'dir.root' is properly configured (as explained on the wiki page). Then you have to add the alfresco-jlan-embed.jar file to the to various projects, especially AlfrescoEmbedded (in fact adding it to that project and exporting it should work, but I'm not sure about that).
You can find the file in a normal Alfresco 3.0 installation, in the  alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib/ folder. Then you add it to a project in Eclipse with right-click->properties->Java Build path -> Libraies -> Add External JARs. (exporting is done in the "order and export" tab).

That seems to solve most people's problem. In my case I still get the same errors :

If anyone has another solution in mind you're help would be much appreciated.

Have you succeeded in getting the example to work? I'm running into my own issues.. From the forums, it appears that there are dozens and dozens of issues with this particular example…

For your issue, I see:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.json.JSONException

that means you need to add the JSON.jar to your classpath.
