run ALFRESCO in Root like http://alfresco

[haltindag]

Hi

how can I reconfigure so that Alfresco runs in the Root like http://alfresco
instead in Virtual directory http://alfresco/alfresco

I made some changes in
urlrewrite.xml, webscript-framework-config-custom.xml and webscript-framework-config-custom.xml.sample

but no success so far



Thanks in advance

In C:/alfresco/tomcat/webapps/ directory, rename alfresco.war as ROOT.war and restart Tomcat. Remember to delete the old alfresco directory in there.

@Zaizi - how far does that collide with the root.war from share ? Any experience ?

If you want to continue to use Share, you'll need to Share configuration to point it at your Alfresco installation. Incidentally you can run Share on a separate server to Alfresco.

Modify

\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\web-extension\webscript-framework-config-custom.xml

And update the URL in the snippet below. In this case remove the "/alfresco/" context.
