@musicman As far as #Alfresco vs { #Drupal + extensions } vs #OpenKM, I think part of it is the level of work involved in making a web-based document store ... after doing so much work, they really want to put "the good stuff" into a paid offering and leave raw pieces for those who won't pay.

That machine was not on a UPS, so my time of experimenting with #Alfresco ended when a power outage followed by a power surge damaged the disk

Back in the olden days of 2006 / 2007, it was easy. Install #Tomcat. Stop Tomcat (so it isn't running). Grab the #Alfresco .WAR file and drop it into the proper directory within Tomcat. Start Tomcat. Once it has extracted the WAR file, stop Tomcat again and edit some configs (for example, enter database info, enable or disable various services and functionality). Start it again.
Depending on what gets enabled, there could be other shutdowns and restarts and config editing needed.

Speaking of #Alfresco, do they still have the document converter function? Back in the day, they used a #OpenOffice library as a background process. It could convert to and from any file formats that OO supported.

@musicman I ran #Alfresco at home over a decade ago. It was way more than I needed (and I don't think they were competing with #SharePoint yet ). A HDD crash while I was out of state ended that.
Good to see they're still around.
