Got a weird issue here - where I can save a Word Document to a Alfresco Space, but I can't open any. I have to open the file locally (at which point it informs me it's also on the alfresco share and prompts me to update it).When I try to open from Word (File > Open http://192.168.1.123:7070/alfre

Just to update. I've installed alfresco on another remote server (first time was local virtualised server).

I get exactly the same problem. I can't even connect via port 7070 - even through a browser.

However, I tried on a Virtualised XP install - and it's fine.

I'm currently Running Windows 7 RC1. Looks like that could be the issue here…..

Have you got a firewall in the way?
And have you bound to the correct IP address?

Those are the usual problems with being unable to network with CentOS.

No firewall. IP tables turned off on CentOS. Firewall disabled on my PC.

Windows 7
1. I go to http://myserver:7070/alfresco (in IE, trusted site, default browser)
2. It gives me a authentication popup (windows).
3. I put my username in
4. It rejects it
5. Go to #2
(repeat 3 times).

Windows 7
1. I go to http://myserver:8080/alfresco
2. It presents me with the login screen
3. I login with the same username and password that was just rejected.
4. I use the site.

Windows XP
1. I go to http://myserver:7070/alfresco (in IE, trusted site, default browser) (On XP Machine on same local network)
2. It gives me a authentication popup (windows).
3. I put my username in
4. It accepts it.

So it works fine on an XP machine on the same network….

Can you just clarify what you mean?

Where do I "bind" the IP?

Also - what connections should i allow, as eventually I do want a firewall running. 7070? TCP/UDP?

Thanks,

Tom.

No-one else having this issue?

Anyone else running Windows 7 RC1?

I have the exact same issue running on Windows 7. No problem on XP.
