liferay installation with existing Alfresco

[chrisokelly]

Hi,

We've had alfresco installed for a few months now and it is rapidly approaching production-readiness. I have been asked to look into Liferay integration with it. There's doco on the Liferay site for installing Liferay, however none of it relates to Installing Liferay with Alfresco or to be integrated with Alfresco. I see that Alfresco has Liferay portlets available for once it is running and that the repository can be accessed with a CMIS application, but that's all info that I will need once it is installed.

Does anyone know of a guide for installing Liferay with Alfresco? I was hoping to run it inside the same instance of Tomcat already running our Alfresco 4.0d install, on ubuntu 10.04.4

Yes, you can install Alfresco in the same application server of your portal. But anyway consider that you could install the portal in a remote and separated machine.
It depends on how your architecture must scale out.

I think that you can start taking a look at this wiki page:

Hope this helps  :wink:
