Running Alfresco 2.0 on Linux

[kroty]

Hi,

Have anyone been able to run Alfresco-2.0 on Linux?

What distribution are you using? What configuration?

I've been trying to run Alfresco-2.0-community-tomcat on Linux for
several weeks. I've tried different distributions, different versions of JDK,
different configurations, etc. And keep getting the same error over and over.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Can you specify the environment?

For Redhat/Fedora Linux use this:
alfresco-community-tomcat-2.0.0.tar.gz
Download this from here:

Hi

I had the same problem. It was resolved by settings in /etc/hosts

Thanks

I set the hostname in /etc/host and it worked!!!!

You saved my day buddy, thanks a lot!!

Hi,

I had the same problem. I can make Alfresco running no problem on Windows but I kept getting this error again and again when trying deploying in Linux (with the same settings).

Could anyone who already solved this problem give me more details about how to solve it? For example what setting I need to change in /etc/hosts.

Thanks in advance,
Celice

I managed to deploy 2.0 + MySql on SUSE10 using the BitRock installer without issue.  I am happily running Alfresco and Zimbra on the same box (both with their own tomcat instance) first time round.

My next step is to deploy using the war into an existing tomcat 5 server.
