Issue connecting to new installation

[jonathanscorner]

I have installed, apparently successfully, the 3.2 community edition under Ubuntu with all web-related optional features included. When I run the alf_start.sh it seems to run successfully, but when I connect to http://localhost:8080/ it either times out or serves up an empty page.

Is there anything else I can/should be doing to connect to the UI?

Self-reply:

1: The first time at least startup is several minutes slower than I expected.

2: Line 9 of alfresco.sh can be changed to "export  JAVA_OPTS='-Xms1024m  -Xmx1024m  -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m  -server'", thereby preventing an immediate crash due to Alfresco hitting its memory ceiling.

3: http://localhost:8080/alfresco is an appropriate access URL and works in place of the http://localhost:8080/ that I was trying to use.
