How do I get started with WCM?

For Alfresco 4.x

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Quick_Start_Developer_Guide

For earlier versions of Alfresco

If you wish to use Web Content Management (WCM) it is highly recommended that you try it out and understand the concepts before attempting to put it in production. In our testing, we used the Getting Started with WCM for Alfresco Community Edition 3.2. There are a few minor caveats and deviations that we have noted below.

• Start Virtual Tomcat Server - Be sure to start the Virtual Tomcat Preview Server first or previews won't work. For instructions, see our How do I start the Alfresco Virtual Server FAQ.
• Use ASR Deployment Receiver - On Step 3 of Create Web Project Wizard: Use the ASR even though deprecated. Enter the Host as 'localhost', the Port as '50500' the Username as 'admin' and the Password is the password you used to login to Alfresco.
• Be careful about the example paths - When entering paths specified in Getting Started, don't include the period that ends the sentence, is is just punctuation, not part of the path. And on page 12, be sure to include the '/' from the previous line as part of the path. The correct path will look like '/${webapp}/media/releases/content/${name}.xml'.
• Don't reload too soon - If you refresh the page after a Submit as suggested in Getting Started, you could get an ugly error. This should be ok, Alfresco is just putting it in the Staging Sandbox. Wait about 15 seconds or more depending on the size of what's being submitted and it should be ok.
• Local Deployment Server is Running - The local deployment server should be already running on port 50500.
• Safari browser - In testing, the Safari browser had problems with creating WCM content.

Deployed WCM Site Delivery

Assuming you have made it this far, you might be asking yourself how you can view your deployed site. Well, there are actually a number of solutions. If you have deployed as described in the Getting Started guide modified by our instructions, your Alfresco JumpBox could be configured to serve the WCM app. We may provide instructions on doing this to those who need it. However, deploying an app to your existing Alfresco JumpBox is probably not the best solution. In the near future we hope to introduce an additional JumpBox that you can deploy WCM Applications to.
