I noticed the files within apps/alfresco had wrong paths, so the apply_amps script doesn’t work.

Is any other way to apply amps?

Thanks

Hi,

It seems that it is necessary to customize the AMP installation. Take a look to the “Customising the structure of an AMP file” section at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/AMP_Files

Hi,

the amp files are ok; I managed to install them manually.

I think the problem is the script applyes the amps files ( INSTALL_DIR/apps/alfresco/apply_amps.sh ) has the paths not correctly set and thus it can’t find the module management tool ( apps/alfresco/bin/alfresco-mmt.jar ) nor the amps directory, …

I changed the script like this :

#!/bin/sh

  1. -——
  2. Script for apply AMPs to installed WAR
  3. -——
    export INSTALL_DIR=/home/rober/tmp/AlfrescoBitnami/alfresco-3.3g-0
    export CATALINA_HOME=$INSTALL_DIR/apache-tomcat
    export ALFRESCO_DIR=$INSTALL_DIR/apps/alfresco
    export MMT_DIR=$ALFRESCO_DIR/bin
    echo “This script will apply all the AMPs in $ALFRESCO_DIR/amps to the alfresco.war and share.war files in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps”
    echo “Press control-c to stop this script . . .”
    echo “Press any other key to continue . . .”
    read RESP
    java -jar $MMT_DIR/alfresco-mmt.jar install $ALFRESCO_DIR/amps $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/alfresco.war -directory
    java -jar $MMT_DIR/alfresco-mmt.jar list $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/alfresco.war
    echo “About to clean out tomcat/webapps/alfresco and share directories and temporary files…”
    echo “Press control-c to stop this script . . .”
    echo “Press any other key to continue . . .”
    read DUMMY
    rm -rf $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/alfresco
    rm -rf $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/share
    sh ./bin/clean_tomcat.sh

It works adjusting INSTALL_DIR. It would be great if the bitnami installer includes the correct paths without manual hardcoding.

Thanks
