installing alfresco 3.2r2 on ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala

had some free time on my hands and thought i’d use it to practice more on linux and stuff. so, here i’m going to share what i did to have alfresco up and running. it’s pretty straightforward actually.

first off, alfresco requirements:

it’s a new environment, so i needed to catch up with how things work in my new company. in my first week, i started off with drupal. i had a crash course on how drupal works, basic content management, the drupal structure, it’s themes and many more. it’s a good thing that i’m already used to using wordpress. they are somewhat similar. but still, since the approach in making the site is way different, i did have a hard time.

the first few weeks was really focused on drupal, and some minor systems administration tasks that needs to be done in between tasks in drupal. i also had some taste of c# last week, jumping right into intermediate to complex programming, which i had no real experience yet. but it was fun. and looks like this following week, i will again be back in the coding domain, c# still.
