alfresco with weblogic 12c

[ilyagalahov]

Hi all!

I am trying to install alfresco community 4.2b on weblogic 12c.

I've applied this instruction's steps: http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/tasks/alf-weblogic-install.html

During alfresco start I got following error:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'messageService' defined in class path resource [alfresco/core-services-context.xml]

And causes:

Caused By: org.alfresco.service.cmr.dictionary.DictionaryException: 05170001 Could not import bootstrap model alfresco/model/dictionaryModel.xml
Caused By: org.alfresco.service.cmr.dictionary.DictionaryException: 05170000 Failed to parse model
Caused By: org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException: Missing required attribute "name" (line 1, col 80)

Thanks.
Ilya.

Can anyone help, please ?

Good morning.

I know that this is an old issue, but I had the same issue and I've solved it. I could reproduce the same issue during a upgrade process between Alfresco 3.4 / Weblogic 10.3.2 and Alfresco 4.2.4 / Weblogic 12.1.2

In order to fix it:

Update the weblogic-application.xml with the same that you can find on alfresco-enterprise-4.2.4.ear\META-INF\ (or inside of the ear file that you have downloaded).

I hope that this could help to somebody else.

Cheers,

Cristina.

Cristina,
By just copying the file, it didn't work for me, I had some exceptions but I've found a configuration that works for me also. I've added following lines in wevlogic.xml :
