Unable to delete a certain file in 4.2.c

zanity84 — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 22:24:41 GMT

Hello,I am testing out 4.2.c and am loving it so far. However, I am encountering an interesting problem that I hope can be resolved easily. To test it out, I uploaded some files, including a docx, and a couple txt files. When I went to delete them, I received an error "unable to delete filename.txt"

Hello,

did you find a solution to this issue?

If you try to download a folder as zip file, then you will not be able to delete it and i think it's what happened to you. This issue could be seen here: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-18453

Alfresco Community 4.2.c or 4.2.b => Same problem.
Alfresco Community 4.2.a => you just can't download a folder (and i will try it on 4.0.e too).

Hi,

After some hours (3 or 4), you should be able to delete the folder… No real solution

Updating the download model to the latest version from svn seems to solve this issue.
https://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/repository/config/alfresco/model/downloadModel.xml

The error indicates a problem with a target multiplicity. Changing the download:requestedNode-association's mandatory target from "true" to "false" prevents the integrity violation.

Seeing the same problem on my 4.2.c installation. In my case, if I download several files as zip, I can delete all files except the last one (alphbetically). Does anyone know if this issue has been resolved in Alfresco Community 4.2.e?
