Hi,

thank you so much for your suggestion to upgrade to 4.2d (nightly build). I am happy that I am just testing Alfresco at the moment so I didn't have to go through the backup/restore process.

Online edit works fine now, BUT when I safe the document it is creating 3 versions of the document in Alfresco

For example:

I "online edit" a word document with version 1.3, edit it in the Word 2010 App and save it. When I go back to Alfresco I can see 3 indentically, new versions (1.4 + 1.5 + 1.6). I have definitly only saved the document once.

Any idea ?

Glad that I could help you!
Unfortunately I don't have a good idea for your new problem. Does this happens every time?

Hi,
I followed the same advice to install the 4.2d nightly and I also have the problem of 3 different versions generated by only one "Save".

How about opening a bug in jira?

I have alfresco 4.2.c and the Edit online works fine,without saving 3 differents version as you said.so maybe only the new version 4.2.d have this problem

Go to URL: http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/
You may install using installer: alfresco-community-4.2.d-installer-linux-x64.bin
or manually: alfresco-community-4.2.d.zip

If you are installing using installer. the alfresco.war inside the installer is either corrupted or wrong. You will never be able to start your share.
So download both files. Install using installer and later extract alfresco.war file from alfresco-community-4.2.d.zip file and replace it with <alfrescohome>/tomcat/webapps

Try out and let me know if further you need any assistance. I just resently went through all this to make edit online working.

The solution for me was setting to false the "cm:autoVersionOnUpdateProps" in the "cm:versionable" aspect in the ContentModel.xml.
After doing this, Alfresco Share doesn't generate multiple versions anymore.
Here there's the code:


<aspect name="cm:versionable">
        <title>Versionable</title>
        <properties>
           <property name="cm:versionLabel">
              <title>Version Label</title>
              <type>d:text</type>
              <protected>true</protected>
           </property>
           <property name="cm:initialVersion">
              <title>Initial Version</title>
              <type>d:boolean</type>
              <default>false</default>
           </property>
           <property name="cm:autoVersion">
              <title>Auto Version</title>
              <type>d:boolean</type>
              <default>true</default>
           </property>
           <property name="cm:autoVersionOnUpdateProps">
              <title>Auto Version - on update properties only</title>
              <type>d:boolean</type>
              <default>false</default>
           </property>
         </properties>

Hi Nagesh,
you do not specify the dimension of the document which fails to open preview and if, for other documents smaller, preview works.
Anyway, I think your problem is caused by insufficient default memory.
You should check your alfresco-global.properties file and modify it.
Here I send you how I configured my alfresco-global.properties file to solve this issue:

Hi Nagesh
I am glad my suggestions worked and helped you!
About your issue with edit online, I have had the same identical one, which I solved according the solution I posted in this forum at the following URL:
http://forums.alfresco.com/forum/installation-upgrades-configuration-integration/configuration/Alfresco-5.0.d problems with SharePoint interface.

Look at this and let me know if it worked for you too and if you solved the issue with "Save as" functionality.

Frank

Hi Frank,

Once again a big thank you for helping in all the means..!!

I have applied you suggestions below I have copied changes in alfresco-global.properties file

vti.server.port=7070
vti.alfresco.alfresoHostWithPort=http://127.0.0.1:8080
vti.share.shareHostWithPort=http://127.0.0.1:8080

vti.server.external.host=127.0.0.1
vti.server.external.port=7070
vti.alfresco.deployment.context=/alfresco
vti.server.external.contextPath=/alfresco

I can resolve the error Could not start MS Office message when I click on Edit online in Alfresco 5.0.c , it is trying to open the word document and I get this below message

Access to the webserver is disabled by the default because it is controlled by basic authentication and does not use SSL.Do you want to search the microsoft online support centre to view possible solutions. I can see same message in IE and Mozilla as well.

I have followed some suggestions which is given by linuxyeti in the below link but I couldn't successed.

https://forums.alfresco.com/forum/installation-upgrades-configuration-integration/installation-upgrades/online-editing-Microsoft

As per his suggestions I have added the below content and modify the password accordingly and created the xml file in D:\Alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension

Re: online edit not working / small SP conn problem

fvincenti — Wed, 03 Jun 2015 07:28:38 GMT

Hi Nagesh,
did you modify your MS Windows registry configuration?
I remind you that you have to modify/insert the following registry keys:
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters\BasicAuthLevel (type REG_DWORD)
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\Internet\BasicAuthLevel (type REG_DWORD)
Both keys have to have the value 2.
Regarding the file .xml you have created under …\shared\classes\alfresco\extension in my case it wasn't necessary.
If your registry keys weren't already modified when you got the error, I suggest you to make test with your initial configuration, without the new .xml file you have created.

Regards
Frank

Hi Frank,

Apologies for the late response

Thanks once again..I have applied what you have said it is resolved now.
But is there any change without changing the Windows Registry will that work because
am giving an example suppose I want to use this application with in the organisation for sharing the documents and editing the documents which can be used by the team members, it would be tedious and a tough job for editing Registry key for each team members system..

Is there any other solution with out changing the registry values, can you please suggest any other solution..

Thank you

Re: online edit not working / small SP conn problem

fvincenti — Tue, 16 Jun 2015 07:32:53 GMT

Hi Nagesh
the changes you made to your MS Windows client registry keys have the aim to enable both authentication SSL and OTHER methods. If you do not want to make these changes I think you should configure your Alfresco to authenticate using SSL method, but I never tryed this way and I do not know how help you.

Frank
