Trying to evaluate the solution I received a Error 404 "The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists." when trying to install on a clean VM with the installation script.
So I downloaded OpenKM-ComPorDev.ova to see the application working but it ALSO does not function and provides an Error 404 with the exact same message. Watching the youtube video I noticed that a symbolic link "OpenKM" in /home/openkm/Development/tomcat-8.5.24/webapps does not exist.
According to the video it should resolve to: /home/openkm/Development/workspace/openkm/target/OpenKM but that file or directory does not exist in the downloaded VM

Hoping someone can tell me what that symbolic link should actually point to and why the .ova does not work considering it should be in a recommended configuration.

Thanks!

Please share us some screenshot.
Does not exists /home/openkm/Development/tomcat or similar folder name, sure?
What URL used for downloading the OVA?
 #47954  by trog31
 
URL was https://download.openkm.com/token/<key>/
Downloaded file was OpenKN-ComPorDev.ova

Deleted and re-imported VM. Took screenshots of the youtube vid, the re-import and the broken link
Hopefully that helps.

This folder is linked with eclipse project. Open eclipse - you have in the tool bar - and build the source code. Or execute from the command line under the openkm project folder the command line ( the workspace should be in Development/workspace/openkm ):
Code: Select all
mvn clean package -Dmaven.test.skip=true

That worked!

I guess I'm wondering why this isn't either:
1. already completed in the OVA
or
2. Explicitly spelled out in the instructions.

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply!
