Alfresco Community Edition is an open-source content management system that allows users to easily manage their office documents, web content, and digital assets. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Alfresco Community Edition on NetBSD.
To download Alfresco Community Edition for NetBSD, go to the official website at https://www.alfresco.com/products/community/download. Click on the "Download Community Edition" button.
From the download page, select the version of Alfresco Community Edition that you want to install. Make sure to choose the right distribution, in this case, select the "Alfresco Community Edition (Tomcat Bundle)" for NetBSD, and then click on the "Download" button to start the download.
Once the download is complete, navigate to the directory where you downloaded the file and extract it using the following command:
tar -xvf alfresco-community-<version>-t<tomcat-version>.tar.gz
Replace <version>
with the Alfresco version number and <tomcat-version>
with the corresponding Tomcat version. For example:
tar -xvf alfresco-community-6.2.0-ga-tomcat.tar.gz
This will extract the archive file into a new directory called alfresco-community-<version>
. Move this directory to a convenient location, such as /opt
, using the following command:
mv alfresco-community-<version> /opt
Before starting Alfresco Community Edition, make sure that Java is installed and configured properly. You can verify this by running the following command:
java -version
This command should display the version of Java that is installed on your system.
Next, navigate to the Tomcat bin directory inside the Alfresco installation directory and run the startup.sh
script to start the Tomcat server:
cd /opt/alfresco-community-<version>/tomcat/bin
./startup.sh
This will start Alfresco Community Edition, and you can access it using a web browser by navigating to http://localhost:8080/share.
