Hi,

You need a valid REPOSITORY_ID parameter to connect. You could look this up for your server and pass it using the parameters hash map or just query for the list of available repositories and connect to the first (and only) one. I recommend the second option.

To do this remove the following line where the repository id is set:


parameter.put(SessionParameter.REPOSITORY_ID, "myRepository");
‍‍‍

and replace


Session session = factory.createSession(parameter);
‍‍‍


List<Repository> repositories = factory.getRepositories(parameter);
Session session = repositories.get(0).createSession();
‍‍‍‍

This way you don't have to provide the repository id. OpenCMIS will fetch all available repository ids and connect to the first one. Since an Alfresco repository only has one repository id this is likely the behavior you want.

I agree about grabbing the first repository in the list and creating a session from that.

But I also notice that you are using this as your service URL:
http://localhost:8080/cmisatom

When it should most likely be this:
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/cmisatom

Unless you are redirecting or have installed alfresco into your Tomcat root context or something.

Unfortunately,
because other technical problems, I am not going on with Alfresco and I was to reply
that eventually not even the second way was good throwing the exceptions anyway.

As soon as I can I will test the Jeff's
