Hello,I am using AVM Remote to access the descriptions of directories from within our web application. Say I create a directory, 'exercise', in the root of the webapp and attempt to access the attributes of that directory withtring realPath = servletContext.getRealPath("/exercise");JNDIPath jndiP

Oh, forgot to mention. The description field was populated with 'Exercise' when the directory was created. I can verify that it is still populated by viewing the properties of the folder.

Seems like a bug to me. I'll look into it and report when I know more.

Well, I did a simple test using AVMRemote.setNodeProperty() and AVMRemote.getNodeProperties() and it worked as expected. Could you perhaps give me a little more detail about how you're setting the property?

Cheers,

Hi Brett. I am setting the property from the Alfresco CMS GUI. I log in as 'admin', open up the web project, choose 'Browse Website' in the admin sandbox, and select 'Create Folder' from the Create menu. I created all folders this way (with descriptions) but I can get none of them to show with AVMRemote.

Also - I'm not sure if this is related, but it seems relevant - I found that if I try to clear the description by editing the folder's properties, the GUI gives me the following error message (and clears the name field too):

Failed to create new space due to error: Batch update returned unexpected row count from update: 0 actual row count: 0 expected: 1‍

I figured it out. The property is of actual type Serializable, so use getSerializableValue() for now.
