I'm very new to Alfresco and trying to get hold of it. I'm using Community edition 4.2 and I've created one website using Alfresco Share and I did not imported Government/Finance website data. Below is the screenshot -
Now I've created two folders under Document Library tab and have uploaded few PDFs into that. It looks like below -
Now if I click on publish link then its saying that "There is no appropriate channel for this content".
I entered ubswcm as URL name while creating this site.
I followed the link http://docs.huihoo.com/alfresco/Getting-Started-with-WCM-for-Alfresco-Commumity-Edition-3.2.pdf which talks about stating but I could not find staging in this version of Alfresco 4.2.
My questions
How can I publish this content?
How can I run this website on localhost? Do I need to create war file? If so then please advice how to proceed on this.
http://:8080/wcmqs running fine. How can I build slimier site like this in http://:8080/ubswcm ? Please suggest if you have any tutorial on this.
Many thanks for your help!
You need to follow a tutorial on the Alfresco Web Quick Start capabilities. You should find that these capabilities are well-documented on docs.alfresco.com, e.g. Using Alfresco Web Quick Start.
Do not confuse Web Quick Start with the Social Publishing framework (which the Publish action is associated with) or with the legacy AVM-based WCM services (which I assume the PDF refers to, but I could not tell for sure as you link gives me a 404) that are no longer supported in Alfresco 4.

I have installed alfresco community 4.2 on my laptop. Also i have downloaded alfresco workdesk & configured it to use my local alfresco repository instead of default one.
Now i am not able to figure out how to get workflow features on content i uploaded in workdesk UI as well as how to proceed with case management features as clubbing multiple files to create one case etc.?
Can anybody help me here?
OK. I have done some more research & found out that one can use alfresco enterprise edition & install workdesk enterprise trial for same. This trial is a preconfigured case management example which has lots of features which can be used as yardsticks such as creating case folders with multiple files, workflow etc.
Now depending upon information/documentation you have got, one can extend it for further use.
I have a 4.0.x binary installation of alfresco and have this menu highlighted below:
I have 2 custom installed 4.2.c versions and this option is missing. I have done the following to try and enable it as read from different parts of the web:
1) added the two following lines to both the share and the repo's alfresco-global.properties file
#enable GoogleDocs integration
googledocs.enabled=true
googledocs.googleeditable.enabled=true
2)Modified the share-custom-config.xml file in attempts to enable this and other google docs functionality.
So far this is the only thing missing. I am not sure whether this is a bug or whether I'm overlooking something else.
Yes, Google Docs integration works fine with Alfresco Community Edition 4.2.c. In fact, here is a video that shows you how to get it working:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbNDEp1KG1g
The video shows that the out-of-the-box installer will not create a working Google Docs integration due to changes on the Google side. So you need to reinstall the AMPs to both the alfresco and share wars as gagravarr mentioned above.
If you are using Google Docs integration in the repository folders (external to a Share site) you will need to install from head because there is a bug. If you are using the integration only within Share sites the latest released version of the integration, downloadable from the 4.2.c file list page, will be fine.
I started an open source project on google code. I've seen in other google code projects Downloads tab where I suppose to upload my files. I need to share a Liferay project and I prefer in this phase to share a zip/war file (Liferay bundles with source code): is it possible to do this? How it is possible to create Downloads tab? Do I need to use mercurial, svn or git also for this step?
I'm sorry, but Google Code no longer supports downloads for new projects. The download links you've seen are for older projects that were grandfathered in, but those projects also will no longer be able to create new downloads starting next January.
I'd like to upload files to my Google Code project automatically, e.g. using a custom NAnt task.
I'm aware of projects such as ant-googlecode, nant-googlecode, the Scripted Uploads Wiki, and this handy Python script. All of them seem out of date for the same reason -- they all use the same upload URL, which is no longer there:
https://yourproject.googlecode.com/files
(And they all seem to also use an obsolete authentication scheme using network credentials.)
If you know what the new URL is or any source of documentation (I haven't found it on the Google Project Hosting Wiki), please share it.
When I upload document into Alfresco Share library - site tells me: "preview is anavailable for a document" though document is a standard winword.
What shall I do to make my winword documents previewable? I use Community Alfresco Edition
In order to let the preview correctly work, you need the following third party software to be properly installed on the server running Alfresco:
OpenOffice (NOTE: don't use version 3.3.0 as it is affected by a known bug)
Imagemagick
swftools
The first link I provided already includes the configuration changes you need to provide Alfresco with in order to point out to those external tools.
You can add custom preview for documents in alfresco share, Fist you need to add new mime type (here) in alfresco and then Create your preview plug in which renders the content in document details page
you can refer this example for creating plug in PdfJs
