Once again: Installation on Ubuntu 7 *or* 8

[strophi]

Dear forum,

is there anybody out there who can explain alffresco's installation on either Ubuntu 7 or 8?

I tried the wiki way for 2.1 Community. No success. I retried 25 times and reread the article 100+ times, even the french thread (thanx i've some french in school), then I tried the linux installer for 2.9B, but no success. The under ubuntu 8 not working installer on sourceforge.org  is there since december 2007. 7.5 month - isn't this an release by Alfresco.Inc. ???

If Alfresco can't build an linux installer, that works under ubuntu 7 or 8, that installs a proper base of alfresco ecms, who else can?

Linux: “Ubuntu and Red Hat pull away, SUSE remains flat by comparison in the US” – Ubuntu 24d Hat Enterprise Linux 21%.

Possibly the linux gurus out there, who have no problems and who run a productive or test environment, aren't sharing their experience…

Why don't they share?

hope you won't feel offended

I would say that trying something 25 times isn't going to be productive.

How far did you get with the installation? I'm sure it is just a simple matter of setting up a few shell variables.
