I have my alfresco 3.4.d in linux and i can access to my AD in 2008, i can see http://MyIP:8080/alfresco and http://MyIP:8080/share no problems, i can work with 2003 and 2007(sharepoint protocol).

But now i need work with 2010, and when i want open a document with http://MyIP:7070/alfresco/ ask for a password but not logme in, ask again for password.

I made a change in registry of Win7 for BasicAuthLevel=2 and por ssl the same in office, but still have this problem.

How can i access from office 2010 to my alfresco with sharepoint protocol??

Microsoft have removed the ability to create document workspaces from Office 2010, effectively breaking the Sharepoint connector. As far as I'm aware there's no workaround or simple fix for this fundamental change.

Thanks,
Mike

Sorry to use the same Topic but i have a "problem" with Alfresco 3.4.d + Office 2010

I have tried to follow the instructions in here (http://docs.alfresco.com/3.4/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.alfresco.Enterprise_3_4_0.doc%2Fconcepts%2FShare...) to install the SharePoint Protocol in order to "Edit Online" MS Office 2010 documents (word, excel,…) , without success.

In alfresco-enterprise-spp-3.4.2.zip file, the  vti-module.amp file doesnt exist.

I'm using Alfresco on Windows 7 64bits.
I'm new at this, could anyone help me please?

Thanks

alfresco-enterprise-spp-3.4.2.zip file,
- this is the correct file, just that the documentation hasn't kept up with the later amp modules.
If you install it into alfresco.war and then run:
java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar list [path to war file]/alfresco.war
You should get a result like this - file paths are from my community installation:
Module 'org_alfresco_module_wcmquickstart' installed in '../web-server/webapps/alfresco.war'

The last module listed is the vti module  - sharepoint support
Don't forget to add the necessary stuff to alfresco-global.properties

Hi,

Just to be clear, if I install this module will Office 2010 integration work?

Also how can I get the alfresco-enterprise-spp-3.4.2.zip as I am using the Community edition.

Thanks

if you need the community version you should use the SSP amp for that version:
alfresco-community-spp-3.4.d.zip
The procedure to install ist the same.
It works for us to open or save docs in Office 2010 but functionality is very limted.

Hi

The file alfresco-community-spp-3.4.d.amp is already in my amps dir.

I have added the following to my alfresco-global.properties file (see code below) and restarted server but I still have the same issue that when I open the doc 'edit online' I get a windows authentication box that wont accept any credentials

Note I can login to alfresco share using AD credentials so the passthru is working.  Also I noticed in:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\Internet: BasicAuthLevel=2. 
I have UseRWHLinkNavigation has been added with my alfresco server URL.

Also in Office 2007 running Win xp it works but I always have to enter credentials ie. is ntlm supposed to pass on windows credentials automatically??

So to revisit office 2010 with alfresco. So is there anyway to use the Sharepoint workspace manager with alfresco?
