How to install Alfresco in to my existing tomcat installatio

[tvenkatmca]

Hi,

Please tell me, [size=150]how to install Alfresco in my existing Tomcat(version 5) installation. [/size]



I installed alftresco tomcat-0.4.0a
operating system: windows 2000 with mysql and jdk1.5(alfresco is running ok from the c:\alfresco folder)

i already have a tomcat installed in my system, shall i simply copy webclient.war into the existing webapps folder.

and what other changes are needed?

Search the forums for "PermGen space" errors - it's quite common.

Thanks,
Mike

On linux there might be another problem: being that the jvm is out of memory due to the fact that shutting down not necessarily shuts down the java processes.
Hence, when restarting, java process is already running and using memory.

To find out:
- go to ssh control panel
- type the command

ps ax | grep java

- if a process is identified and you are SURE that alfresco/tomcat has been stopped, then issue the command:

kill -15 [PId number]

where PId number is to be found from the "ps" command

- again issue ps ax | grep java. If still not stopped, then issue the command

kill -9 [ PId number]

Note: rather not use the latter. First use the -15 option!

It looks like it was the memory error. However once we configured the amount of memory allocated there was still issues with the install. It appears what happened was that the database was created so when I went to install again (thinking that it failed outright) the installer saw the tables in the database and then bombed. So once I dropped the database and recreated it then ran the installer (with the new memory options) all went well from there.

I have some errors when i try to launch the Alfresco. I reset the server and the Debian Linux. I reinstall the MySQL database too. What can i do?

Here is the code:
