Installing Alfresco 23.2 in Ubuntu 24.04 using ZIP Distribution files

Although the recommended method for installing Alfresco 23.2 is to use containerization tools like Docker Compose or Kubernetes, this blog post outlines an alternative approach using bash scripts to install Alfresco from ZIP distribution files on a Linux server such as Ubuntu.

All necessary scripts can be found in the project repository at https://github.com/aborroy/alfresco-ubuntu-installer, along with instructions on how to execute them.

Here is a summary of the process:

1. Install the base requirements: PostgreSQL, Java, Tomcat, and ActiveMQ.
2. Install the Alfresco software components: Alfresco web application, Share web application, Search services, and Transform services.
3. Build the Angular UI: Alfresco Content App.
4. Install the web proxy: Nginx.
5. Start all services and verify the installation.
