I am trying to start developing using Alfresco Surf, however I can't find the surf.war file in any installation package. I have started the tutorial at http://www.benh.co.uk/alfresco/surf-part-1-getting-started/ with the surf.war linked there, but that's more than 2 months old. Any help would be appreciated.
however i have no idea how to deploy/install it with my installed alfresco. my main aim is to use web studio but i need templates for that. i'm following the same tutorial as the one you have posted to create templates and use them. web studio is good but there is serious lack of info/support on its use and new users like me can't find any good info to get start. i have a huge project lined up and client wants to use alfresco. i have the HTML format of the site but i need to convert it into a template and then work on it through alfresco. i know nothing about templates [xsd, ftl etc] and thus i'm using this tutorial to learn a bit.
please share whatever info you have about alfresco, web studio and other stuff.
its working for me. i simply moved the surf.war file into tomcat and restarted the alfresco webserver and it automatically deployed the war file and created the relevant folders and files. and now i'm running 1 page of the website i'm working on.
Hi Dervaish, I just downloaded the surf.war and placed it in webapp directory to developing custom UI for alfresco labs 3.0. And restarted server sucessfully. when i'm trying to access the surf by using http://localhost:8080/surf it automatically redirects me into http://localhost:8080/surf/page and displaying the following message.
"Alfresco Surf has been installed at this location. A home page has not been defined."
"The requested resource (/surf/login) is not available."
if i login with http://localhost:8080/surf/login.jsp it prompts me to login page (jsut a plain login page)… and not accepting the existed users even "admin","admin". can anyone provide the password and username to enter into the surf platform ?
But i'm seeing the login page in webapp/surf directory.
Now i have created a sample page successfully. And now i want to access my alfresco from this application. Can anyone just give me the small details about accessing the alfresco from this site. Actually i want to see all the folders in alfresco from this sample surf based application. Just give me the brief details so that i can digg into this more.
