topic AVM directories disappearing over CIFS/FTP in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/avm-directories-disappearing-over-cifs-ftp/m-p/183579#M136709 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>We’ve encountered an interesting issue with WCM where all AVM folders disappear for a user when changes occur in a web project (eg: content is submitted into a workflow).&nbsp; In our case, userA [Content Publisher] submits content from their sandbox in webProjectA.&nbsp; Typically, the content from the user’s sandbox is available in:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN><A class="jive-link-external-small" href="ftp://" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ftp://</A><SPAN>&lt;alfresco-server&gt;/AVM/webProjectA–userA/HEAD/DATA/www/avm_webapps/ROOT/</SPAN></SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The same structure applies to CIFS, with the AVM folder structure looking like so:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectA</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectA–admin</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectA–userA</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectB</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectB–admin </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>/AVM/webProjectB–userA</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>For some reason, once any content is submitted, all directories in the AVM folder disappear for userA (admin [Content Manager] can sometimes still see these folders over FTP/CIFS, sometimes they go blank for admin as well).&nbsp; This will also happen if a user makes a change in webProjectB.&nbsp; It seems the user is suddenly denied from accessing the entire AVM folder, and the server produces the following stacktrace:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE><BR />00:27:38,875 ERROR [alfresco.ftp.protocol] Error generating FTP path<BR />org.alfresco.repo.security.permissions.AccessDeniedException: Access Denied.&nbsp;

anyone seen this behavior before?&nbsp; This is crucial to our project since the developer ant script pulls web project content over FTP, using the user’s account.&nbsp; Also, if the server is restarted, userA can access the AVM folder again without issue, which leads us to believe this may be a resource or state issue.&nbsp; Occasionally, if the submission completes the workflow access also returns, but I haven’t been able to make it happen consistently.&nbsp; </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks in advance,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Ilia</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 25 Feb 2009 18:02:16 GMT ipapas 2009-02-25T18:02:16Z AVM directories disappearing over CIFS/FTP https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/avm-directories-disappearing-over-cifs-ftp/m-p/183579#M136709 We’ve encountered an interesting issue with WCM where all AVM folders disappear for a user when changes occur in a web project (eg: content is submitted into a workflow).&nbsp;
