You're correct to remove the "/service/cmis" part from the service document and go with "/alfresco" - this allows the underlying Alfresco iOS SDK to determine the best endpoint for your repository version.

The problem you're seeing is almost certainly due to incorrectly-formed absolute URLs in the CMIS response body. That's the most common failure on that last step of the diagnostics check.

Have a read of my post here to see if this resolves your issue: https://forums.alfresco.com/comment/149481#comment-149481

Thank you for you response. I tried the walkaround but still failure at checking repository connection step. Forgot to mention earlier that I'm using a self-signed certificate. Can it be the problem?

Yes, that will be a problem as we no longer support self-signed certificates. You may have luck if you upload the local CA certificate you used to generate the self-signed certificate to the device. I know this works on the simulator, but haven't tried it on an actual iPhone or iPad.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,

Thank you for responding. I purchased valid SSL certificate last Tuesday so that I can login from my iPad, but unfortunately the same error still occurred. However, I find that URL in my atom file is https://mydomain/-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom…, not https://mydomain/alfresco/api/-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom… Could that be the problem?

I changed ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse in my VirtualHost like below;

ProxyPass /-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom ajp://localhost:8009/alfresco/api/-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom
ProxyPassReverse /-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom ajp://localhost:8009/alfresco/api/-default-/public/cmis/versions/1.0/atom

And it's working.
