Hi all,

I’m also looking for the WAR file location Re: integration of the Records Management.amp.

I’m using SUSE Enterprise Linux server 10 as my OS.

Anyone please help!!!!!

Hi,

The war file is uncompressed in the apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco folder.

Hi beltran,

Thanks for the info. But I looked with “show hidden files enabled” in file browser. Apart the folders, only one file is visible (index.jsp)

My apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco folder contents:-

/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/META-INF
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/css
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/images
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/jsp
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/scripts
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/services
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/wsdl
/opt/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco/index.jsp

Hi John,

Maybe I do not understand well. The war file is only a zip compressed file. The Stack does not include the war file, this war file is uncompressed under alfresco/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco folder. Does this information answer your question? Why are you searching the war file?

Hi beltran,

Sorry for the confusion.

I already installed alfresco and everything is working great. However I wanted to installed the Records Management amp. I’m using SUSE Linux Enterprise server 10. and Alfresco version: Community Network – v2.1.0 (482)

I followed the procedures on the Alfresco site which says, to used the command below.
java -jar alfresco-mmt-2.1.jar install <ampfilelocation> <warfilelocation> [options]

Most of the documentations I read talks about an alfresco.war file for the WARfileLocation ,that why I was looking for that file.

I understand what you said about the zip compressed file being uncompressed in the alfresco folder. My question is, how can I installed the Record Management amp . I am lost

Please help!!

John.

beltran, Alfresco can be extended with AMPs (Alfresco Module Packages).

I’m also stuck because can’t follow the Alfresco instructions to install a couple of AMPs I would like to try: the alfresco.war file isn’t there, and the same happens with the apply_amps.sh file.

Regards,
Francisco

Hi Francisco,

I installed the Record Management module on BitNami Alfresco Stack on Ubuntu. I followed these steps:

1. Stop the application. If you are running the stack in Linux or OS X you should stop with ”./ctlscript.sh stop” but on Windows you can stop through the shotcuts. It is recommendable to create a copy of your Alfresco Stack directory if you have sensible data in your application.

2. Go to the <installation_directory>/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco and create a zip file (alfresco.war) with all files. It is important that the war file (or the zip file) has the contain of the alfresco folder: WEB-INF, META-INF, index.jsp, etc.

cd ~/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco
zip -r alfresco.war *
mv alfresco.war ~/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/

3. Remove the <installation_directory>/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco folder.

rm -rf ~/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps/alfresco

4. Download the alfresco-mmt-2.1.jar and the alfresco records management from sourceforge. Copy these files into <installation_directory>/apache-tomcat/webapps/.

5. Go to the <installation_directory>/apache-tomcat/webapps/ and install the AMP file:

cd ~/alfresco-2.1.0-7/apache-tomcat/webapps
~/alfresco-2.1.0-7/java/bin/java -jar alfresco-mmt-2.1.0.jar install alfresco-recordsmanagement-2.1.0.amp alfresco.war

6. Check your installation:

<installation_directory>/java/bin/java -jar alfresco-mmt-2.1.0.jar list alfresco.war

You should see a similar result:

Module ‘org.alfresco.module.RecordsManagement’ installed in ‘alfresco.war’
- Title: Records Management
- Version: 1.3
- Install Date: Tue Jul 29 20:37:12 CEST 2008
- Desription: Alfresco Record Management Extension

7. You can restart the application and you can see these lines into the apache-tomcat/logs/catalina.out log file:

20:44:36,080 INFO [repo.module.ModuleServiceImpl] Found 1 module(s).
20:44:36,400 INFO [repo.module.ModuleServiceImpl] Installing module ‘org.alfresco.module.RecordsManagement’ version 1.3.

I hope it helps you!
