Hello,

Alfresco 4.2? I must have missed a version - last I heard 4.1 is current.

Are you able to provide some logging output or detail what kind of configuration did not work (e.g. with configuration examples)? At the moment, there is not enough information to go on…
I would expect that the last option (UNC path) would not work, since I doubt Java is able to resolve this Windows specific file path to a valid file URL. Have you made sure that the user account that is running the Alfresco server has the necessary privileges to write on the mapped shares?

Regards
Axel

Version 4.2 (I believe) is Odin, which is the next community version to be released.

Unlike the previous two examples, when I setup the secondary store to use the share, mapped as a directory (/Alfresco/AlfrescoReplicatedData), there is no exception thrown when Alfresco is started. The exception occurs when Alfresco attempts to write to the store. I'm using the following commend to setup the directory. I'd already issued the appropriate net use command to setup authentication to the share. Here is the exception:

What I haven't done is attempt this setup on a stable version of Alfresco, say 4.0d. I will attempt to do so as my schedule permits, but I suspect the outcome will be the same.

There was this thread in another forum post, but with no solution: https://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=37345

Still looking for a solution to my issue here.

Thinking its possible. This JIRA ticket has given me hope: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-548

Hi Ben,
we never testet this on windows boxes but I think it's simply an issue with the backslash (\) try G:/AlfrescoSharedData or //10.10.0.31/AlfrescoSharedCS instead

Thanks for the response Heiko.

I've tried //10.10.0.31/AlfrescoSharedCS and \\\\\\10.10.0.31\\\AlfrescoSharedCS. It would appear that both are being interpreted the same way as this message from the log would indicate:

Alfresco is setup to run as a service and I've specified a username and password to run that service that is also able to connect to the Window Share.

I think you need java compliant UNC-paths. Please try file://10.10.0.31/AlfrescoSharedCS or file:///G:/AlfrescoSharedCS

Got it!

Was a permission issue with the user account I was using for the service. Once I sorted that out, the following worked:
