Add Alfresco on bootup

Ola amigos y amigas

Just finished everything from Alfresco with CIFS a few days ago.  I have to test everything from start to simulate all the changes that I made is working properly.

Reboot the server.

Check the Alfresco in my browser.  It’s not working, expected result.

But, I want my Alfresco to start at boot so that I don’t have to manually start it everytime I boot my server.

Let’s see…

I need to add alfresco script to start-up application.

# cd /opt/alfresco/33G
# update-rc.d alfresco.sh defaults
update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/alfresco.sh missing LSB information
update-rc.d: see <http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>
Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/alfresco.sh …
/etc/rc0.d/K20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc1.d/K20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc6.d/K20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc2.d/S20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc3.d/S20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc4.d/S20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
/etc/rc5.d/S20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.sh
#

Reboot the machine again.  Now, Alfresco started.  Nice!

Tried Alfresco in Windows Explorer.  No dice.

Just remembered that I have to run the iptables again.  Argg!

I need to create the iptables script and execute it on boot like alfresco script.

# cd /etc/init.d
# vi alfresco.iptables

Put in the iptables commands

#!/bin/bash
# Flash all IPTables rule
iptables -F
iptables -t nat -F

# Accept all INPUT, Forward and Output
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT

# IPTables forwarding samba port to Alfresco
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m state –state NEW –dport 137 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m state –state NEW –dport 138 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state –state NEW –dport 139 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state –state NEW –dport 445 -j ACCEPT

#IPTables for Alfresco
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp –dport 137 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1137
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp –dport 138 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1138
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp –dport 139 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1139
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp –dport 445 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1445

Make it executable and run update-rc.d again.

# chmod 755 alfresco.iptables
# update-rc.d alfresco.iptables defaults
update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/alfresco.iptables missing LSB information

/etc/rc5.d/S20alfresco.sh -> ../init.d/alfresco.iptables

Reboot Alfresco Server again.

Test Alfresco.

Isn’t it nice when your application runs perfectyly
