I don't run the script. I get the war distribution called
'alfresco-community-war-2.1.0.tar.gz'. It's located at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=143373&package_id=157460&release_id=524558
I untar'd it... and the rest is described in my message.
I hate that so many java applications out there have to install their
own jdk. Thankfully Alfresco comes with a raw .war version that can be
installed into an existing tomcat/jdk environment.
The only thing my description does not do is start OpenOffice on
bootup. I figure a simple startup script should fix that. I have run
the headless mode manually in a separate login session and it works fine
communicating to it.
So, Alfresco does run on F8's (and F7) Tomcat as long as you get Sun's
1.6 jdk/jre.
