Hi,

You need to connect the app to the Repository (/alfresco) rather than Share (/share)

Thanks,
Mike

Hi MikeH,

Thank you for this update.

I have tried to use https://alfresco.ca/alfresco and i have another error.

Now, when i try to connect with this address, i have the error message : "null" (see my screenshot below)

It's like nothing is returned from the server…

I have tried on my cellphone and my tablet and the result is the same.

Thanks for your help.

I have my own Ubuntu server running Alfresco community 5 and I want to take advantage of Alfresco mobile.
Im using Alfresco at DePaul University, where I teach a class in service learning. I want the students to use Alfresco to store their documents and use it for team collaboration. I do not understand what HOSTNAME is in the settings.
I have a domain purchased, and I set its A record to the IP address of the Ubuntu server.
By adding :8080/share, I can get to the Alfresco login on the server. But I am unable to setup the Alfresco mobile on my iPAD.
Its asking for Hostname. So what exactly is the host name, and if its on the Ubuntu server, how do I set it up.
I talked to GoDaddy, my domain host, and they were unsure what it is.
Thanks for any help!
