It looks like there are a couple of issues here.

The ImageMagick error is due to the imconvert.exe not being in the PATH environment variable. The same goes for the error regarding the Win32 NetBIOS DLL. Both these files can be found in the bin directory of the windows distributions.

The JVM_Bind error is caused by something already running on port 21 (the one FTP requires). Do you have another FTP server running on your machine?

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I'm just at the beginning of my study of alfresco and just replying to pmarreddy:

In case you are using eclipse (must be the same with any IDE or command line cases), it seems that if you start the repository once and it reaches an exception preventing it to close correctly (most of the cases if you reach any exception I think), you could have a javaw.exe running and using the 21 port. Just kill that process to release the port.

It would maybe be interesting to catch the exception and perform a clean exit if one reaches an exception when starting the repository, no?

Hi,

The examples are designed to illustrate usage of APIs and features.  In this case, the errors you see have not caused the repository startup to fail.  Certain features have failed to initialise (i.e. FTP and OpenOffice transformations) but the rest is running fine.

The FTP problem is probably caused by an existing example still running.  Kill the example before attempting to run it or another one again.

Regards
