After installing Alfresco Community Edition (4.2.c) in my office machine, I get "The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized."

But it installed properly and can log into in my personal laptop. I want to know why I am getting this error.

Is this same : stackoverflow.com/a/7793855/1064610 - user2166576
But without any configuration changes it runs in my personal laptop. I have installed WAMP server in my laptop and XAMPP server in my office machine. So I change the port 8080 to 8082. Also as in stackoverflow.com/a/7793855/1064610 localhost:8082/alfresco does not work for me - tony
what does it mean that it doesn't work for you? which error do you have? - skuro
Have you got another Postgres server already running? Otherwise try checking the Postgres logs, if the event log doesn't help. - Will Abson
On a more general point you should always post your alfresco.log if you have problems starting up the server. Although if the DB is not starting then clearly you should fix that first. - Will Abson

You should first check if the repository part is up and running by logging to

http://localhost:8082/alfresco

If this doesn't work (as you said? What happens?) you should check alfresco.log and maybe catalina.out for obvious errors. Maybe use tcpview from Sysinternals to check if the ports are not claimed by other programs (Skype e.g. has the annoying behaviour to grab port 8080).

If this is fixed, you should be able to login to /share also (unless you forgot to adjust the ports for the endpoints in share-config-custom.xml...)
