Alf doesn't support to that file whose name start with digit

[unknown-user]

Hi All

Anybuddy can explain why Alfresco does not support to that file whose name start with digit for example,  If file name starts with digits (eg.  23459_alfresco.pdf) you will be able to upload the files first time but if you will upload it again then it'll throw this exception –

AxisFault

xpath: /app:company_home/cm:neb_folder/cm:a123_folder/cm:20080407_Alfresco.pdf</ns1:message>

cm:20080407_Alfresco.pdf is not a valid XML name (local names must start with a letter or underscore, they cannot start with a digit). Alfresco solves this (along with other XML-naming incompatibilities) using ISO 9075 encoding, which replaces any character that's disallowed in an XML name with its Unicode code point formatted as _xNNNN_ (where NNNN is the code-point in hexa).

So, the XPath segment should read cm:_x0032_0080407_Alfresco.pdf

Hi  t.broyer

Thanks for the response.

You mean alfresco creates xml file internaly which is having the same name as pdf file. Am i right?

No.

But an XPath runs on XML and thus is constrained by the XML syntax (run on a "virtual XML document" representing the whole system, stored in database, not in XML)

[kumbach]

Space and document names must be ISO9075 encoded.

Creating a document or space with a name that begins with a number or contains spaces in the name will cause an error.

Search the forums for ISO9075, this has been discussed elsewhere.

Hope this helps.

Hi kumbach

Thanks for the response.

I agree from your reply. But can you please tell me why Alfresco support if first time I upload this type of file.

Hi,

You probably should show us the code you are using to upload the file for an accurate response.
