I am using Community 3.2r2 on ubuntu 9.10. I installed the vti amp and edited alfresco-global.properties to say:vti.server.port=7070 vti.alfresco.deployment.context=/alfresco vti.alfresco.alfresoHostWithPort=http://myserver:8080 vti.share.shareHostWithPort=http://myserver:8080I am trying to connect

I am also having the same problem with MS WORD 2007 with same version of Alfresco 3.2.r2. If it helps anyone to solve the issue, I am using passthru and NTML (with out SSO - enabling SSO is breaking Share).

Does anyone find a solution/workaround for this issue?

Was able to create sharepoint workspace in MS Office 2007.

Added the following properties in alfresco-global.properties and restarted alfresco. I'm using basic NTLM authentication.

vti.server.port=7070
vti.alfresco.deployment.context=/alfresco
vti.alfresco.alfresoHostWithPort=http://ipaddress:8080
vti.share.shareHostWithPort=http://ipaddress:8080
vti.share.shareContext=/share

It turns out this was not a bug at the code level. My Vti configuration had a space at the end for Alfresco context setting.

If you look at the code that throws this error, you can quickly figure out why it is happening.

if (!url.startsWith(alfrescoContext))
                {
                    if (logger.isDebugEnabled())
                    {
                       logger.debug("Url:" + url);
                       logger.debug("Alfresco Context:" + alfrescoContext);
                        logger.debug("Url must start with alfresco context.");
                    }
                    throw new VtiHandlerException(VtiHandlerException.BAD_URL);
                }

Thanks for the follow-up. That sounds like something we should be tolerant of - please raise a bug report in JIRA.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi

I'm using EE 3.2
I've enabled the sharepoint module as explained on the website.
When I try to create a new workspace in office it starts the process then it quits and displays "Try Again Later"
What I find strange is the the Workspace get created under share sites but there is no document located there.
I don't know if this problem is related to this post.

I would appreciate if someone can help with this.

Thanks.

My settings in the vti.properties

vti.server.port=7070
vti.alfresco.deployment.context=/alfresco
vti.alfresco.alfresoHostWithPort=http://172.16.8.177:8080
vti.share.shareHostWithPort=http://172.16.8.177:8080
vti.share.shareContext=/share
vti.share.siteInBrowser=/page/site/…/dashboard
vti.share.siteSettings=/page/site/…/customise-site
vti.share.siteGroupMembership=/page/site/…/site-members
vti.share.userInformation=/page/user/…/profile
vti.share.documentLibrary=/page/site/…/documentlibrary
vti.share.documentDetails=/page/site/…/document-details

This is the error log at the point it fails.

HI

Can I please get some news on this.
I've tried this on the nightly build community edition and it works fine.
I realy need a reliable working version of alfresco and at this point not even the enterprise edition seems to work correctly.

Is there a verion that I can use with these features all working correctly.
passthru
Sharepoint feature
share

ps * The nightly build you guys updated with NTLM + SSO works fine until you use ad auth and import users, after that it breaks the share function again.

Please can I get an update on this

Thanks

Hi
I had almost identical symptoms with:

Applying Office 2003 SP3 resolved the problem.

Cheers,
