Alfresco: cleanup your dev environment

As an Alfresco developer/administrator, you probably already made a few mistakes in your DEV environment while trying to add new features, a custom model or something like that. The result of that mistake might be a corrupted Database or Content Store. Yes I know it’s hard to recognize it! But then what can be done to solve the issue and… 

Installing EDB Postgres Advanced Server 9.5

Some days ago EnterpriseDB released EDB Postgres Advanced Server 9.5. As usual this release contains all new features that have been introduced with PostgreSQL 9.5 plus the additions that are documented in the release notes. Some time ago I blogged on how to install the 9.4 release. In this post I want to check if anything changed in the installation…

What to do if you get the above error when you try to install Oracle SE2 (did not test if the same issue is there with EE, but probably it is) in silent mode?: ./runInstaller oracle.install.option=INSTALL_DB_SWONLY ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle/ ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_2_4/ UNIX_GROUP_NAME=oinstall oracle.install.db.DBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.OPER_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.BACKUPDBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.DGDBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.KMDBA_GROUP=dba FROM_LOCATION=../stage/products.xml INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/ SELECTED_LANGUAGES=en oracle.install.db.InstallEdition=SE2 DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true -silent -ignoreSysPrereqs -ignorePrereq -waitForCompletion You already checked my oracle support and… 

Configure a Kerberos Client and Alfresco as a Kerberized application

In the previous blog, I described How to install and manage a Kerberos Server but that’s useless if there are no clients and if no application have been kerberized! That’s why in this blog I will explain in the first part how to install a kerberos client in linux. The second part will be dedicated to the configuration of a… 

How to install and manage a Kerberos Server

For some time now, I have been working on how to set up a Single Sign-On (SSO) solution in my company. As a big fan of Open Source solutions, I have obviously proposed the implementation of a solution based on Kerberos. What I mean by that is a solution based on the true Kerberos, i. e. MIT Kerberos. Indeed, Kerberos… 

Oracle Grid Infrastructure 12c: Binaries installation

In a previous article, I have shown how to configure two servers in order to deploy a two-nodes 12c cluster. This time, I am going to describe the Grid Infrastructure 12c installation process using Oracle Universal Installer (OUI). We assume that cluvfy tool has returned no errors (see previous blog). Install Grid Infrastructure Connect as grid and launch the Oracle… 

Oracle Grid Infrastructure 12c: prerequisites for installation

Grid infrastructure 12c has recently been released. In this posting, I will show that the installation prerequisites are quite similar between Grid Infrastructure 11g and 12c. We will see parts of them during a review for the deployment of Grid Infrastructure on a two nodes RAC database cluster. Server hardware requirements Let’s see the hardware part. Grid infrastructure 12.1 Grid… 

Errors while installing Oracle Database Vault on Oracle 11.2.0.3

During one of my last consulting missions, I had to install Oracle Database Vault on an existing Oracle environment. It clearly was not a straigthforward process, since I experienced some weird errors such as: ORA-28003: password verification for the specified password failed, ORA-20001: Password length less than 8, and ORA-01917: user or role ‘LBACSYS’ does not exist. After having a…
