WCM Refuses to install

[sensei]

Hello,
I'm not sure if I'm making a mistake due to some missing install instructions but I cannot get the WCM components to work. The web project space does not show up in company home and the web content forms are not there in data dictionary.

I have a working community tomcat 2.90B install on Cent OS using MySQL.

I extracted the community WCM 2.90B and uploaded it while my community system was stopped. I placed the bootstrap file as instructed.Restarting the server and starting alfresco - the community install still works fine but no WCM components.

I tried dropping and recreating the database, deleting the alf folder contents and letting alfresco recreate itself with the WCM extension in place - same thing. Community components are there but no WCM.

Did I miss a step in the install? If so, where is it documented???

This is almost certainly caused by the wcm-bootstrap-context.xml file being in the wrong directory.  If you're using Tomcat, it needs to be in ${TOMCAT_HOME}/shared/classes/alfresco/extension, where ${TOMCAT_HOME} is the directory in which the main Alfresco instance's Tomcat server (not the virtualisation server's Tomcat server) is installed.

Cheers,
Peter

/opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension is where the file is located - it's not in the virtual tomcat directory.

I checked the database and there is no entry for the wcm patch in the alf applied patches table.
