1. WHAT IS EXO ECM
---------------------------------------------------
Enterprise Content Management is the strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve and deliver
contents and documents related to organizational processes with the purpose of improving operational productivity and efficiency.
ECM tools and strategies allow the management of an organization s unstructured information, whether that information exists.
The eXo Platform ECM portlet provides you with a portal solution that can help you achieve these processes easily and it is carefully
designed so that you can leverage your business content across all formats for competitive gain. An environment for employees is also
provided to share and collaborate digital contents as well as delivering a comprehensive unified solution with rich functionalities.
ECM consists of three parts:
DMS (Document Management System): used to store, manage and track electronic documents and electronic images. DMS allows
documents to be modified and managed easily and conveniently by managing versions, properties, ect.
Workflow: is the way of looking at and controlling the processes presented in an organization such as service provision or
information processing, etc. It is an effective tool to use in times of crisis to make certain that the processes are efficient and
effective with the purpose of better and more cost efficient organization.
WCM (Web Content Management): helps in maintaining, controlling, changing and reassembling the content on a web-page. It also
helps webmasters who handle all tasks needed to run a website, including development, deployment, design, content publication and
monitoring.
2. HOW TO SET UP EXO ECM
---------------------------------------------------
eXo Enterprise Content Management requires the Java 2 Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit version 5.x
2.1. Install Java SE 1.5 (Java Development Kit)
Based on JavaEE, our ECM runs currently fine with version 1.5 so if you are using newer version, please download and install this
version to make ECM works fine. We will support newer version of Java very soon.
2.2. Download eXo Enterprise Content Management version from: http://forge.objectweb.org/projects/exoplatform/
2.3. Unzip that package under a path that does not contain any space (in Windows).
2.4. Open a shell session and go to the bin/ directory that has just been extracted.
2.5. Then run the command :
Windows:
eXo.bat run
Linux, Unix, Mac OS
chmod u+x *.sh ./eXo run
2.6. Open your web browsers, now eXo ECM can run on FireFox 2 or newer, Internet Explorer 6 or newer
(we recommend using FireFox 3+ or Internet Explorer 7+ for the best result)
and navigate to URL: http://localhost:8080/portal
2.7. When the page has been loaded, click "Login" on the top right corner. Specify the username "root" and the password "exo".
