# Claude Desktop Setup Guide
This guide covers Claude Desktop configuration for both users (PyPI installation) and developers (source installation).
## 🤖 Claude Desktop Overview
Claude Desktop is Anthropic's desktop application with native MCP (Model Context Protocol) support. It's the recommended client for most users.
> 📖 **External Setup Guide**: Detailed Claude Desktop configuration also available at [playbooks.com](https://playbooks.com/mcp/stevereiner-alfresco-content-services#claude-desktop-setup)
## 📍 Configuration File Location
First, locate your Claude Desktop configuration file:
- **macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
- **Windows**: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
- **Linux**: Not supported by Claude Desktop
## 👤 User Installation (PyPI)
For users who installed the package from PyPI, choose the installation method that works best for your system:
### Option 1: pipx (Recommended)
**Installation:**
```bash
pipx install python-alfresco-mcp-server
```
**Configuration:**
**Windows** (use [claude-desktop-config-user-windows.json](../claude-desktop-config-user-windows.json)):
```json

alfresco-mcp-env\Scripts\activate # Windows
# Install the package
pip install python-alfresco-mcp-server
```
**Configuration:**
You'll need the **full path** to the executable in your virtual environment:
**Windows:**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "C:\\path\\to\\alfresco-mcp-env\\Scripts\\python-alfresco-mcp-server.exe",
"args": ["--transport", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin",
"PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8",
"PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO": "1"
}
}
}
}
```
**macOS/Linux:**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "/path/to/alfresco-mcp-env/bin/python-alfresco-mcp-server",

"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin"
}
}
}
}
```
**Windows (with encoding fixes):**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "python-alfresco-mcp-server", "--transport", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin",
"PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8",
"PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO": "1"
}
}
}
}
```
## 👨💻 Developer Installation (Source Code)
For developers using the source code repository:
### Configuration Files
Use the included configuration files:
**Windows** (use [claude-desktop-config-developer-windows.json](../claude-desktop-config-developer-windows.json)):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "python-alfresco-mcp-server", "--transport", "stdio"],
"cwd": "C:\\path\\to\\python-alfresco-mcp-server",
"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin",
"PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8",
"PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO": "1"
}
}
}
}
```
**macOS** (use [claude-desktop-config-developer-macos.json](../claude-desktop-config-developer-macos.json)):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "python-alfresco-mcp-server", "--transport", "stdio"],
"cwd": "/path/to/python-alfresco-mcp-server",
"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin"
}
}
}
}
```
### Traditional Development Setup
If using traditional pip with virtual environment:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"python-alfresco-mcp-server": {
"command": "/path/to/venv/bin/python",
"args": ["-m", "alfresco_mcp_server.fastmcp_server", "--transport", "stdio"],
"cwd": "/path/to/python-alfresco-mcp-server",
"env": {
"ALFRESCO_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"ALFRESCO_USERNAME": "admin",
"ALFRESCO_PASSWORD": "admin"
}
}
}
}
```
## 🔧 Configuration Steps
1. **Locate Configuration File**: Find your platform-specific Claude Desktop config file
2. **Choose Installation Method**: Select the appropriate configuration based on how you installed the package
3. **Copy Configuration**: Use one of the configurations above or the provided files
4. **Customize Settings**: Update paths, URLs, and credentials for your environment
5. **Restart Claude Desktop**: Close and reopen Claude Desktop for changes to take effect
## ✅ Verification
After configuration:
1. **Check Connection Status**:
- Go to **File → Settings → Developer**
- Look for "python-alfresco-mcp-server" in the list
- Status should show as "running"
2. **Test Basic Functionality**:
- Start a new chat
- Try asking about your Alfresco repository
- Use the repository_info tool to verify connection
## 🛠️ Using the Tools
Once connected, you can:
### Chat Naturally
Just describe what you want to do with documents:
- "Search for PDFs about project planning"
- "Upload this document to the Sales folder"
- "Show me recent documents modified by John"
### Use Search Tools
Access 4 different search capabilities:
- **search_content** - Full text search
- **advanced_search** - AFTS query language
- **search_by_metadata** - Property-based queries
- **cmis_search** - SQL-like queries
### Quick Access
- Click **"Search and tools"** button in chat for tool access
- Click **"+" → "Add from alfresco"** for resources
- Use the **Search and Analyze Prompt** for guided searches
## 🔧 Environment Variables
Customize these variables for your Alfresco server:
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `ALFRESCO_URL` | `http://localhost:8080` | Your Alfresco server URL |
| `ALFRESCO_USERNAME` | `admin` | Username for authentication |
| `ALFRESCO_PASSWORD` | `admin` | Password for authentication |
| `ALFRESCO_VERIFY_SSL` | `false` | Verify SSL certificates |
| `ALFRESCO_TIMEOUT` | `30` | Request timeout (seconds) |
### Windows-Specific Variables
For Windows systems experiencing character encoding issues:
- `PYTHONIOENCODING`: `"utf-8"`
- `PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO`: `"1"`
## 🚀 Transport Options
The server supports three transport protocols:
- **STDIO** (default): Fastest, direct MCP protocol
- **HTTP**: Add `"--port", "8001"` to args for web services
- **SSE**: Add `"--port", "8003"` to args for real-time streaming
## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **"Command not found" error**:
- For pipx: Run `pipx list` to verify installation
- For venv: Check the full path to executable
- For UV: Ensure UV is installed and working directory is correct
2. **Connection failures**:
- Verify Alfresco server is running: `curl http://localhost:8080/alfresco`
- Check username/password are correct
- Confirm environment variables are set properly
3. **Character encoding issues (Windows)**:
- Ensure `PYTHONIOENCODING` and `PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO` are set
- Try restarting Claude Desktop after adding these variables
4. **Tools not appearing**:
- Check that server status shows "running" in Developer settings
- Verify no error messages in Claude Desktop logs
- Try restarting Claude Desktop
### Getting Help
- 📚 **Documentation**: [Documentation Hub](./README.md)
- 🛠️ **Troubleshooting**: [Troubleshooting Guide](./troubleshooting.md)
- 🐛 **Issues**: [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/stevereiner/python-alfresco-mcp-server/issues)
## ⚠️ Security Best Practices
- **Never commit real credentials** to version control
- **Use environment variables** for production deployments
- **Use strong passwords** for production Alfresco servers
- **Consider SSL/TLS** for production environments
- **Review permissions** - ensure MCP user has appropriate access levels

# Configuration Guide
Complete guide for configuring the Alfresco MCP Server. This document covers all configuration options, environment setup, and deployment scenarios.
## 📋 Configuration Overview
The Alfresco MCP Server supports multiple configuration methods:
1. **Environment Variables** (Primary - Always takes precedence)
2. **Default Values** (Fallback when no environment variable is set)
3. **Command Line Arguments** (Transport and server options only)
### ⚠️ Configuration Precedence Order
**Higher priority settings override lower priority settings:**
1. 🥇 **Environment Variables** (Highest Priority)
2. 🥈 **Default Values** (Fallback)
**Answer to "Which setting wins?"**
- ✅ **Environment Variables ALWAYS WIN** over any other setting
- ✅ If no environment variable is set, default values are used
- ✅ YAML configuration files are **not currently implemented** (future enhancement)
### 🔄 Practical Example
```bash
# If you set an environment variable:
export ALFRESCO_URL="https://prod.company.com"
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="service-account"
# And later try to override in code or config:
# config.yaml (not implemented yet, but for illustration):
# alfresco:
# url: "http://localhost:8080"
# username: "admin"
# Result: Environment variables WIN!
# ✅ ALFRESCO_URL = "https://prod.company.com" (from env var)
# ✅ ALFRESCO_USERNAME = "service-account" (from env var)
# ✅ ALFRESCO_PASSWORD = "admin" (default value - no env var set)
```
**Key Takeaway:** Environment variables are the "final word" in v1.1 configuration.
## 🌍 Environment Variables
### Required Configuration
```bash
# Alfresco Server Connection (Required)
export ALFRESCO_URL="http://localhost:8080"
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="admin"
export ALFRESCO_PASSWORD="admin"
```
### Optional Configuration
```bash
# Authentication (Alternative to username/password)
export ALFRESCO_TOKEN="your-auth-token"
# Connection Settings
export ALFRESCO_TIMEOUT="30" # Request timeout in seconds
export ALFRESCO_MAX_RETRIES="3" # Maximum retry attempts
export ALFRESCO_RETRY_DELAY="1.0" # Delay between retries
# SSL/TLS Settings
export ALFRESCO_VERIFY_SSL="true" # Verify SSL certificates
export ALFRESCO_CA_BUNDLE="/path/to/ca" # Custom CA bundle
# Debug and Logging
export ALFRESCO_DEBUG="false" # Enable debug mode
export ALFRESCO_LOG_LEVEL="INFO" # Logging level
# Performance Settings
export ALFRESCO_POOL_SIZE="10" # Connection pool size
export ALFRESCO_MAX_CONCURRENT="5" # Max concurrent requests
```
### Development vs Production
**Development Environment:**
```bash
# Development settings
export ALFRESCO_URL="http://localhost:8080"
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="admin"
export ALFRESCO_PASSWORD="admin"
export ALFRESCO_DEBUG="true"
export ALFRESCO_LOG_LEVEL="DEBUG"
export ALFRESCO_VERIFY_SSL="false"
```
**Production Environment:**
```bash
# Production settings
export ALFRESCO_URL="https://alfresco.company.com"
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="service_account"
export ALFRESCO_PASSWORD="secure_password"
export ALFRESCO_DEBUG="false"
export ALFRESCO_LOG_LEVEL="INFO"
export ALFRESCO_VERIFY_SSL="true"
export ALFRESCO_TIMEOUT="60"
export ALFRESCO_MAX_RETRIES="5"
```
## 📄 Configuration Files (Future Enhancement)
> ⚠️ **Note**: YAML configuration files are not currently implemented in v1.1. All configuration must be done via environment variables. YAML support is planned for a future release.
### Planned YAML Configuration
Future versions will support `config.yaml` in your project root:
```yaml
# config.yaml
alfresco:
# Connection settings
url: "http://localhost:8080"
username: "admin"
password: "admin"
# Optional token authentication
# token: "your-auth-token"
# Connection options
timeout: 30
max_retries: 3
retry_delay: 1.0
verify_ssl: true
# Performance settings
pool_size: 10
max_concurrent: 5
# Server settings
server:
host: "127.0.0.1"
port: 8000
transport: "stdio" # stdio, http, sse
# Logging configuration
logging:
level: "INFO" # DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
format: "%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s"
file: "alfresco_mcp.log"
# Feature flags
features:
enable_caching: true
enable_metrics: false
enable_tracing: false
```
### Planned Environment-Specific Configs
**Future: config.development.yaml:**
```yaml
alfresco:
url: "http://localhost:8080"
username: "admin"
password: "admin"
verify_ssl: false
logging:
level: "DEBUG"
features:
enable_caching: false
enable_metrics: true
```
**config.production.yaml:**
```yaml
alfresco:
url: "${ALFRESCO_URL}"
username: "${ALFRESCO_USERNAME}"
password: "${ALFRESCO_PASSWORD}"
timeout: 60
max_retries: 5
verify_ssl: true

# MCP Test Prompts for Claude Desktop 🧪
**Quick Reference for Testing Alfresco MCP Server with Claude Desktop**
Copy and paste these prompts into Claude Desktop to systematically test all MCP server functionality. Make sure your Alfresco MCP Server is running on `http://127.0.0.1:8003/mcp/` before testing.
---
## 🔧 **TOOL TESTING** (15 Tools)
### **1. Search Content Tool** (AFTS - Alfresco Full Text Search)
```
I need to search for documents in Alfresco. Can you search for:
- Documents containing "test"
- Maximum 5 results
```
**Expected:** List of matching documents or "no results found" message
---
### **2. Browse Repository Tool**
```
Can you show me what's in the Alfresco repository user home -my- directory? I want to see what folders and files are available.
```
**Expected:** List of folders/files in repository root with names, types, and IDs
---
### **3. Create Folder Tool**
```
Please create a new folder called "Claude_Test_Folder" in the repository shared folder (-shared-) with the description "Folder created during Claude MCP testing".
```
**Expected:** Success message with new folder ID, or error if folder already exists
---
### **4. Upload Document Tool**
```
I want to upload a simple text document. Please create a file called "claude_test_doc.txt" in the repository shared folder with this content:
"This is a test document created by Claude via MCP.
Created: [current date/time]
Purpose: Testing Alfresco MCP Server functionality
Status: Active"
Use the description "Test document uploaded via Claude MCP"
```
**Expected:** Success message with document ID and upload confirmation
---
### **5. Get Node Properties Tool**
```
Can you get the properties and metadata for the document we just uploaded? Use the node ID from the previous upload.
```
**Expected:** Full property list including name, type, created date, size, etc.
---
### **6. Update Node Properties Tool**
```
Please update the properties of that document to add:
- Title: "Claude MCP Test Document"
- Description: "Updated via Claude MCP testing session"
```
**Expected:** Success message confirming property updates
---
### **7. Download Document Tool**
```
Now download the content of that test document we created to verify it was uploaded correctly.
```
**Expected:** Base64 encoded content that matches what we uploaded
---
### **8. Checkout Document Tool**
```
Please checkout the test document for editing. This should lock it so others can't modify it while we're working on it.
```
**Expected:** Success message indicating document is checked out/locked
---
### **9. Checkin Document Tool**
```
Check the document back in as a minor version with the comment "Updated via Claude MCP testing - minor revision".
```
**Expected:** Success message with new version number
---
### **10. Cancel Checkout Tool**
```
If you have any documents currently checked out, please cancel the checkout for one of them to test this functionality. Use the node ID of a checked-out document.
```
**Expected:** Success message confirming checkout cancellation
---
### **11. Advanced Search Tool**
```
Test the advanced search with multiple filters:
- Search for documents created after "2024-01-01"
- Content type: "pdf"
- Node type: "cm:content"
- Maximum 10 results
Show me how advanced filtering works compared to basic search.
```
**Expected:** Filtered search results based on multiple criteria
---
### **12. Search by Metadata Tool**
```
Search for documents by specific metadata:
- Property name: "cm:title"
- Property value: "test"
- Comparison: "contains"
- Node type: "cm:content"
This should find documents where the title contains "test".
```
**Expected:** Documents matching the metadata criteria
---
### **13. CMIS Search Tool** (SQL-like Queries)
```
Test CMIS SQL-like searching with these examples:
1. First, try a preset: use "recent_documents" to see the most recently created documents
2. Then try a custom CMIS query: "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:name LIKE 'test%'"
3. (Doesn't work) Search for PDF files only: "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:contentStreamMimeType = 'application/pdf'"
4. (This works) Search for PDF files only "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:name LIKE '%.pdf'"
Compare CMIS structured results with AFTS full-text search operators.
```
**Expected:** SQL-style structured results with precise metadata filtering
---
### **14. Delete Node Tool** (Use with caution!)
```
Finally, let's clean up by deleting the test document we created. Please delete the test document (but keep the folder for now).
```
**Expected:** Success message confirming deletion
---
## 🔍 **SEARCH COMPARISON TESTING**
### **Compare All 4 Search Tools**
```
Help me understand the differences between the four search methods:
1. Use basic search_content to find documents containing "test" (AFTS full-text search)
2. Use advanced_search with multiple filters (created after 2024-01-01, content type pdf) (AFTS with filters)
3. Use search_by_metadata to find documents where cm:title contains "test" (AFTS property search)
4. Use cmis_search with SQL query "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:name LIKE 'test%'" (CMIS SQL)
Compare the results and explain when to use each search method.
```
**Expected:** Clear comparison showing AFTS vs CMIS capabilities and different search approaches
---
## 🗄️ **CMIS ADVANCED TESTING**
### **CMIS Preset Exploration**
```
Test all the CMIS presets to understand different query types:
1. Use preset "recent_documents" to see newest content
2. Use preset "large_files" to find documents over 1MB
3. Use preset "pdf_documents" to find all PDF files
4. Use preset "word_documents" to find Word documents
Show me what each preset reveals about the repository structure.
```
**Expected:** Different categories of content with SQL-precision filtering
---
### **Custom CMIS Queries**
```
Test custom CMIS SQL queries for advanced scenarios:
1. Find documents created today: "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:creationDate > '2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z'"
2. Find large PDFs: "SELECT * FROM cmis:document WHERE cmis:contentStreamMimeType = 'application/pdf' AND cmis:contentStreamLength > 500000"
3. Find folders with specific names: "SELECT * FROM cmis:folder WHERE cmis:name LIKE '%test%'"
This demonstrates CMIS's SQL-like precision for complex filtering.
```
**Expected:** Precise, database-style results showing CMIS's structured query power
---
## 📝 **PROMPT TESTING** (1 Prompt)
### **Search and Analyze Prompt**
```
Can you use the search_and_analyze prompt to help me find and analyze documents related to "project management" in the repository? I want to understand what content is available and get insights about it.
```
**Expected:** Structured analysis with search results, content summary, and insights
---
## 📦 **RESOURCE TESTING** (5 Resources)
### **1. Repository Info Resource**
```
Can you check the repository information resource to tell me about this Alfresco instance? I want to know version, edition, and basic details.
```
**Expected:** Repository version, edition, schema info
---
### **2. Repository Health Resource**
```
Please check the repository health status. Is everything running normally?
```
**Expected:** Health status indicating if services are up/down
---
### **3. Repository Stats Resource**
```
Show me the current repository statistics - how many documents, users, storage usage, etc.
```
**Expected:** Usage statistics and metrics
---
### **4. Repository Config Resource**
```
Can you check the repository configuration details? I want to understand how this Alfresco instance is set up.
```
**Expected:** Configuration settings and parameters
---
### **5. Dynamic Repository Resource**

```
**Expected:** User-related repository information
---
## 🚀 **COMPLEX WORKFLOW TESTING**
### **Complete Document Lifecycle**
```
Let's test a complete document management workflow:
1. Create a folder called "Project_Alpha"
2. Upload a document called "requirements.md" to that folder with some project requirements content
3. Get the document properties to verify it was created correctly
4. Update the document properties to add a title and description
5. Checkout the document for editing
6. Checkin the document as a major version with appropriate comments
7. Search for documents containing "requirements" using basic search (AFTS full-text)
8. Try advanced search with date filters to find the same document (AFTS with filters)
9. Use metadata search to find it by title property (AFTS property search)
10. Use CMIS search with SQL query to find it by name (CMIS SQL)
11. Download the document to verify content integrity
Walk me through each step and confirm success before moving to the next.
```
**Expected:** Step-by-step execution with confirmation at each stage
---
### **Repository Exploration**
```
Help me explore this Alfresco repository systematically:
1. Check repository health and info first
2. Browse the root directory to see what's available
3. Search for any existing content
4. Show me repository statistics
5. Summarize what you've learned about this Alfresco instance
Provide a comprehensive overview of what we're working with.
```
**Expected:** Comprehensive repository analysis and summary
---
## 🐛 **ERROR TESTING**
### **Invalid Operations**
```
Let's test error handling:
1. Try to download a document with invalid ID "invalid-node-id"
2. Try to delete a non-existent node
3. Try to upload a document with missing required parameters
4. Search with an empty query
Show me how the MCP server handles these error cases.
```
**Expected:** Graceful error messages without crashes
---
### **Authentication Testing**
```
Can you verify that authentication is working properly by:
1. Checking repository info (requires read access)
2. Creating a test folder (requires write access)
3. Deleting that folder (requires delete access)
This will confirm all permission levels are working.
```
**Expected:** All operations succeed, confirming proper authentication
---
## 📊 **PERFORMANCE TESTING**
### **Batch Operations**
```
Test performance with multiple operations:
1. Create 3 folders with names "Batch_Test_1", "Batch_Test_2", "Batch_Test_3"
2. Upload a small document to each folder
3. Search for "Batch_Test" to find all created content
4. Clean up by deleting all test content
Monitor response times and any issues with multiple rapid operations.
```
**Expected:** All operations complete successfully with reasonable response times
---
## ✅ **SUCCESS CRITERIA**
For a fully functional MCP server, you should see:
- ✅ All 15 tools respond without errors (including new CMIS search)
- ✅ The search_and_analyze prompt works
- ✅ All 5 resources return data
- ✅ Authentication works for read/write/delete operations
- ✅ AFTS and CMIS search both work properly
- ✅ Error handling is graceful
- ✅ Complex workflows complete successfully
- ✅ Performance is acceptable
## 🔍 **TROUBLESHOOTING**
If tests fail:
1. **Check server status**: Verify MCP server is running on http://127.0.0.1:8003/mcp/
2. **Check Alfresco**: Ensure Alfresco is running on http://localhost:8080
3. **Check authentication**: Verify credentials in config.yaml
4. **Check logs**: Review server console output for errors
5. **Check network**: Ensure no firewall/proxy issues
## 📝 **LOGGING CLAUDE'S RESPONSES**
When testing, note:
- Which operations succeed/fail
- Any error messages received
- Response times for operations
- Quality of returned data
- Any unexpected behavior
This will help identify areas needing improvement in the MCP server implementation.

```
SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='alfresco.company.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded
ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: certificate verify failed
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Disable SSL Verification (Development Only):**
```python
import urllib3
urllib3.disable_warnings(urllib3.exceptions.InsecureRequestWarning)
# In config
alfresco:
url: "https://alfresco.company.com"
verify_ssl: false
```
2. **Add Custom Certificate:**
```bash
# Add certificate to system trust store
sudo cp company-ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
## 🔐 Authentication Issues
### Problem: Authentication Failed
**Symptoms:**
```
AuthenticationError: Authentication failed
401 Unauthorized: Invalid username or password
```

curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-
# Check environment variables
echo "Username: $ALFRESCO_USERNAME"
echo "Password: $ALFRESCO_PASSWORD" # Be careful with this in scripts
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Verify Credentials:**
```bash
# Check correct username/password
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="admin"
export ALFRESCO_PASSWORD="admin"
# For domain users
export ALFRESCO_USERNAME="DOMAIN\\username"
```
2. **Use Token Authentication:**
```bash
# Get token first
TOKEN=$(curl -d "username=admin&password=admin" -X POST http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/authentication/versions/1/tickets | jq -r .entry.id)
export ALFRESCO_TOKEN="$TOKEN"
```
3. **Check User Permissions:**
```bash
# Test with different user
curl -u testuser:testpass http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-
```
## 📦 Installation Issues
### Problem: Module Import Errors
**Symptoms:**
```
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'alfresco_mcp_server'

pip install --upgrade pip
# Update dependencies
pip install --upgrade -e .
```
## ⚡ Performance Issues
### Problem: Slow Operations
**Symptoms:**
- Search operations taking >30 seconds
- Upload timeouts
- General sluggishness
**Diagnosis:**
```bash
# Test search performance
time python -c "
import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
from alfresco_mcp_server.fastmcp_server import mcp
async def test():
async with Client(mcp) as client:
await client.call_tool('search_content', {'query': '*', 'max_results': 5})
asyncio.run(test())
"
# Check Alfresco performance
curl -w "%{time_total}\n" -o /dev/null -s -u admin:admin http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Optimize Search Queries:**
```python
# Avoid wildcard searches
await client.call_tool("search_content", {
"query": "specific terms", # Better than "*"
"max_results": 25 # Reasonable limit
})
```
2. **Increase Timeouts:**
```python
# In your client code
import httpx
async with httpx.AsyncClient(timeout=60.0) as client:
# Your operations
```
3. **Check Alfresco Performance:**
```bash
# Monitor Alfresco logs
tail -f alfresco.log | grep WARN
# Check system resources
top -p $(pgrep java)
```
### Problem: Memory Issues
**Symptoms:**
```
MemoryError: Unable to allocate memory
OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space (in Alfresco logs)
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Limit Batch Sizes:**
```python
# Process in smaller batches
async def process_batch(items, batch_size=10):
for i in range(0, len(items), batch_size):
batch = items[i:i + batch_size]
# Process batch
```
2. **Increase Java Heap (Alfresco):**
```bash
# In setenv.sh or docker-compose.yml
export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xmx4g -Xms2g"
```
## 🔧 Tool-Specific Issues
### Search Tool Problems
**Problem: No Search Results**
**Diagnosis:**
```python
# Test with simple query
result = await client.call_tool("search_content", {
"query": "*",
"max_results": 5
})
print(result[0].text)
# Check if repository has content
result = await client.call_tool("get_node_properties", {
"node_id": "-root-"
})
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Verify Index Status:**
```bash
# Check Solr status
curl http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=STATUS
```
2. **Reindex Content:**
```bash
# Trigger reindex (Alfresco admin)
curl -u admin:admin -X POST http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/admin/admin-tenants
```
### Upload Tool Problems
**Problem: Upload Fails**
**Symptoms:**
```
❌ Error: Failed to upload document
413 Request Entity Too Large
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Check File Size Limits:**
```python
# Verify base64 size
import base64
content = "your content"
encoded = base64.b64encode(content.encode()).decode()
print(f"Encoded size: {len(encoded)} bytes")
```
2. **Increase Upload Limits:**
```bash
# In nginx (if used)
client_max_body_size 100M;
# In Tomcat server.xml
<Connector maxPostSize="104857600" />
```
### Version Control Issues
**Problem: Checkout/Checkin Fails**
**Symptoms:**
```
❌ Error: Document is already checked out
❌ Error: Node does not support versioning
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Check Document Status:**
```python
# Check if document is versionable
props = await client.call_tool("get_node_properties", {
"node_id": "your-doc-id"
})
```
2. **Enable Versioning:**
```bash
# Through Alfresco Share or API
curl -u admin:admin -X POST \
"http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/your-doc-id/aspects" \
-d '{"aspectName": "cm:versionable"}'
```
## 🧪 Testing Issues
### Problem: Tests Failing
**Common Test Failures:**
1. **Integration Test Failures:**
```bash
# Check Alfresco is running for tests
curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-
# Run with verbose output
pytest tests/test_integration.py -v
```
2. **Coverage Test Failures:**
```bash
# Run coverage tests specifically
pytest tests/test_coverage.py --tb=short
# Check what's missing
pytest --cov-report=term-missing
```
3. **Import Errors in Tests:**
```bash
# Reinstall in development mode
pip install -e .
# Check test environment
python -m pytest --collect-only
```
## 🌐 Transport Issues
### Problem: HTTP Transport Not Working
**Symptoms:**
```
ConnectionError: Failed to connect to HTTP transport
Server not responding on port 8001
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Check Server Status:**
```bash
# Verify server is running
python -m alfresco_mcp_server.fastmcp_server --transport http --port 8001 &
# Test endpoint
curl http://localhost:8001/health
```
2. **Port Conflicts:**
```bash
# Check if port is in use
netstat -tulpn | grep 8001
# Use different port
python -m alfresco_mcp_server.fastmcp_server --transport http --port 8002
```
### Problem: SSE Transport Issues
**Symptoms:**
```
EventSource connection failed
SSE stream disconnected
```
**Solutions:**
1. **Check Browser Support:**
```javascript
// Test in browser console
const eventSource = new EventSource('http://localhost:8003/events');
eventSource.onopen = () => console.log('Connected');
eventSource.onerror = (e) => console.error('Error:', e);
```
2. **Firewall/Proxy Issues:**
```bash
# Test direct connection
curl -N -H "Accept: text/event-stream" http://localhost:8003/events
```
## 🔍 Debugging Techniques
### Enable Debug Logging
```bash
# Set debug environment
export ALFRESCO_DEBUG="true"
export ALFRESCO_LOG_LEVEL="DEBUG"
# Run with verbose logging
python -m alfresco_mcp_server.fastmcp_server --log-level DEBUG
```
### Network Debugging
```bash
# Monitor network traffic
sudo tcpdump -i any -A 'host localhost and port 8080'
# Test with different tools
wget --spider http://localhost:8080/alfresco/
httpie GET localhost:8080/alfresco/ username==admin password==admin
```
### Python Debugging
```python
# Add debug prints
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
# Use pdb for interactive debugging
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
