I followed the step given in below link to configure multiple content stores in Alfresco 5.0.d.
http://docs.alfresco.com/5.0/concepts/store-config-fullexample.html
Alfresco instance is not able to start and gives the exeption,
Cannot resolve reference to bean 'storeSelectorContentStore' while setting bean property 'store';
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Invalid bean definition with name 'storeSelectorContentStore' defined in file [/opt/alfresco-5.0.d/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/content-store-selector-context.xml]:
I also tried the method stated in below link, https://community.alfresco.com/docs/DOC-5156-content-store-configuration
This gives a different error, alfresco dir root not defined even though it's defined in the properties file.
