I have installed the 3.3 on windows, selected RM in the install steps. 
I then went to add the Dashlet and do not see anything that looks like RM?

Thanks

Hi

The solution already exists in the forum. (i forget the link)

I must modify the script you applies the AMPS (for working with share.war instead of alfresco.war)




sry for my english (french Smiley Wink )

Hi,

The RM for Share interface does not gets deployed automatically with current implementation. You can use MMT to deploy RM

C:\Alfresco\bin>java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar install c:\Alfresco\amps-share\alfresco-dod5015-share.amp c:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\share.war

The above assumes you have installed Alfresco in C:\Alfresco - change it to your requirements.

You can also modify the aply_amps script to apply RM into share.war as mentioned by previous post.

The new script will be as follows:

@echo off
rem ——-
rem Script for apply AMPs to installed WAR
rem ——-

set ALF_HOME=%~dp0
set CATALINA_HOME=%ALF_HOME%tomcat

if not exist "%ALF_HOME%SetPaths.bat" goto getpaths
call "%ALF_HOME%SetPaths.bat"
goto start

:getpaths
call "%ALF_HOME%bin\RegPaths.exe"
call "%ALF_HOME%SetPaths.bat"
del "%ALF_HOME%SetPaths.bat"

:start
echo This script will apply all the AMPs in %ALF_HOME%amps-share to the share.war file in %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps
if ""%1"" == ""nowait"" goto nowait1
echo Press control-c to stop this script . . .
pause
:nowait1
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar "%ALF_HOME%bin\alfresco-mmt.jar" install "%ALF_HOME%amps-share" "%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\share.war" -directory "%2"
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar "%ALF_HOME%bin\alfresco-mmt.jar" list "%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\share.war
echo .
echo About to clean out tomcat/webapps/alfresco directory and temporary files…
if ""%1"" == ""nowait"" goto nowait2
pause
:nowait2
rmdir /S /Q "%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\alfresco"
rmdir /S /Q "%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\share"
call "%ALF_HOME%bin\clean_tomcat.bat"

For reference I have included the link:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/w/images/8/88/Installing_and_Configuring_Alfresco_Community_Edition_3_3.pdf

And to confirm that I have the correct expectation, on the install menu screen it states after selecting "Custom" install:  "Select the components you want to install and deselect the components you do not want to install"

It is very clear that RM installs with a "Custom" selection in 3.3 Alfresco CE, for me there is no dashlet.


I have selected all items during Custom install:

[X] Default Components
[X] Java
[X] OpenOffice
[X] WCM
[X] Sharepoint
[X] MySQL Database
[X] Records Management
[X] Quickr Connector Support

Here is text from the install guide for 3.3:

From Community Edition 3.3 Installing and Configuring Alfresco page 13
Full Alfresco installation wizard for Windows
including Share and Explorer web clients, DM
and WCM, Records Management, Quickr,
and SharePoint functionality. Use this file if no
Alfresco component is installed on your system.
This installer ensures that you have all the
recommended software installed and ensures that
configurations are set.

Alfresco-Community-3.3-Full-Setup.exe

From Community Edition 3.3 Installing and Configuring Alfresco page 19
Typical To select all the components within the Alfresco full installation.
This option does not install the Records Management or Quickr
Connector Support components. To install these components,
select Custom.


From Community Edition 3.3 Installing and Configuring Alfresco page 20
13. (Optional) If you are installing the Records Management component, the Records
Management window displays. Select the Include Records Management check box.
Records Management is a module that is licensed separately from Alfresco. If you plan to
install Records Management, you must ensure that you have purchased an appropriate
license and understand the terms of this license agreement before proceeding.


From Community Edition 3.3 Installing and Configuring Alfresco page 22
Custom To select individual components:
[X]  Default Component (includes DM)
[X]  Java
[X]  OpenOffice
[X]  WCM
[X]  SharePoint Protocol
[X]  MySQL Database
[X]  Records Management
[X] Quickr Connector Support


From Community Edition 3.3 Installing and Configuring Alfresco page 38
Installing the Alfresco Records Management module
The Alfresco Records Management module is designed to work with an Alfresco installation,
applying new functionality to Alfresco Share.
Records management can be installed in two ways:
• Using the Alfresco installation wizard, selecting the Records Management component in
the Custom option
• Using the manual installation procedure, used when installing Alfresco with the bundles or
WAR file
When you install Alfresco and Records Management using an installation wizard, it applies
the required Alfresco Module Package (AMP) files, which contain the code, content model,
and directory structure required to run the Records Management functionality, and it removes
temporary folders in Tomcat. For more information on the installation wizards, refer to Installing
Alfresco on page 19. When you start Alfresco Share, follow the procedures to add the Records
Management dashlet and the Records Management site.
When installing Alfresco manually, follow the procedure described in Records Management
manual installation procedure on page 38.

On Linux, in apply_amps.sh, $APPSERVER is used but not defined. Setting this to the same as CATALINA_HOME will probably work (depending on how you deploy Alfresco). At least that's what fixed it for me.

The RM for Share interface does not gets deployed automatically with current implementation. You can use MMT to deploy RM

C:\Alfresco\bin>java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar install c:\Alfresco\amps-share\alfresco-dod5015-share.amp c:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\share.war

The above assumes you have installed Alfresco in C:\Alfresco - change it to your requirements.
Entered this command line and it completed with no error messages. Restarted Alfresco, logged into Share and there is still no Record Management Dashlet. Is there something else I need to do?

Did a fresh install of Community version 3.3 and followed the above AMP install for Share and now everything is working correctly. Not sure what went wrong the first time.

Hi!
I really like Quckr integration, because we are using Lotus Notes as corporate messaging. And I have one idea for next version.
Native Quickr store has option to add Views. Nice feature, to get list of files checked out by me. Or I must approve. How do you think? Smiley Wink

I don't know much about Quickr myself, but that sounds like a great suggestion. Could you create a ticket in JIRA please with the same details - that's how we track new feature requests.

Thanks,
Mike
