Installing Alfresco War File On Tomcat With Liferay

[wcameron]

I am installing alfresco.war on the same tomcat instance that can with my liferay installation for 4.1.12

When i log into the alfresco application i get the following exception can anyone give me some idea of the cause of the problem.

javax.faces.FacesException: Error calling action method of component with id loginForm:submit
caused by:
javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: Exception while invoking expression #{LoginBean.login}
caused by:
java.lang.RuntimeException: class configured for MessageDigest(provider: CryptixCrypto)cannot be found.
caused by:
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: class configured for MessageDigest(provider: CryptixCrypto)cannot be found.
caused by:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: cryptix.jce.provider.md.MD4

I'm still having some difficulty deploying Alfresco into Liferay 4.3.1. 

Here's what I run into:

Everything is fine until this SEVERE: Error listenerStart….

Anybody got any ideas what would cause such a random severe, apparently, unrecoverable error?

Thanks!

Am having the exact same problem.  Is the Severe error listener start because tomcat is already running?

[edfialk]

I don't think it's because tomcat is already running, for me at least.

I've tried having the alfresco war in Liferay's deploy directory before and after starting up tomcat.  Both get the same result.

[shoshin]

I too got the same problem.The cause of this problem is the war is not repacked correctly
first set the jar class path and try the following command from the directory where u exploded the exisitng war

jar -cvf alfresco.war *

[mikeh]

The cause of the problem above was because the Liferay configuration files were missing:

Plugin package on context alfresco cannot be tracked because this WAR does not contain a liferay-plugin-package.xml file

If you're getting the same error, then follow the instructions posted elsewhere on this forum or on our wiki in order to modify the war for Liferay deployment.

Thanks,
Mike
