Alfresco 3.4e installation through Eclipse : Missing Package

[julien13]

Hi everyone,
i'm new to the Alfresco community , trying to achieve a full install of the HEAD revision of Alfresco through Eclipse and deploying it with my own Tomcat. I have some issues with missing packages while starting Tomcat server. First of all , here is what i've done so far :

- Creating alfresco database with the corrects Grants on localhost:3306
- Checkout the Alfresco 3.4e SVN version
- Building with Ant, using Tomcat paths C:/Eclipse/Tomcat6

The build is successful and i just have few warnings about deprecated things and proprietary sun packages. In my tomcat folder i have the Alfreso/Share webapps and war packages, so everything is fine.

In Eclipse, i created a Tomcat 6 server. As i don't see alfresco/share webapps as resources i can configured with my tomcat (add and remove… option in Eclipse), i used the "Use Tomcat Installation" option instead of "Use workspace metadata" in the server overview.

Once i launched the Tomcat, i see some missing packages errors. It acts as if Tomcat only see the tomcat6/lib directory and not the tomcat6/webapps/xxx/lib directories. here are the exception i obtained in the stacktrace :

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.alfresco.web.app.ContextLoaderListener
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.alfresco.web.app.ContextListener
and finally, not possible to run the [/alfresco] contexte due to previous errors…

Do you think i am missing something ?

Thank you for your answers, i really hope you can help me with those issues.

I think i'd better paste the full stacktrace i obtain on the tomcat console :

Hi,
    I am getting below logger information, please resolve my issue.

The APR based Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: /apps/alfresco34d/java/jre/lib/i386/server:/apps/alfresco34d/java/jre/lib/i386:/apps/alfresco34d/java/jre/../lib/i386:/apps/alfresco34d/common/lib::/usr/java/packages/lib/i386:/lib:/usr/lib

Hi Sameer

This is basically a warning and not an error. This warning is due to that tomcat can perform optimal (improved spee) with this APR libraries. You can download and install it and configure your Apache to use this libraries. Tomcat looks these settings under server.xml file as shown below
<Connector  
       port="8443"  
        protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol"

You can safely ignore this warning
