Hello,

your type filter essentially suppresses all recorded events as it determines every object of the following types and all their subtypes as un-auditable. You need to adapt that filter for any event to be recorded.

Thank you for the reply, but I don't think the problem is there!

I completely removed the following line from alfresco-global.properties

and still can not view the history via show_audit.ftl

now looking through the logs I get the following entries:

Any other thoughts?

Thank you again!

Further to my previous posts, I seem to have the auditing working when I create, open and change files in "My Home" within Alfresco Explorer, however I can not seem to get the same functionality going under "Company Home". Is there a way to switch this on and off?

Thank you

And just some further info:

I've come accross: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-13443 and it is the exact issue that I am experiencing.

I have created a document via CIFS and the auditing is working perfectly fine, however when I add content using Alfresco Explorer the show_audit.ftl is always blank!

I noticed however that the issue has been marked as "Can not reproduce" and closed, has anyone else had the same problem and been able to resolve it?

Thank you

This regression seems to be fixed by another JIRA, possibly ALF-5830? Anyway it does not reproduce any more.
