Hello, I have a new install of Alfreco share 3.4C. I want to enable google docs editing.

I have changed the following files:
/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml (using the sample)
/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems/googledocs/default/googledocs.properties to reflect the correct changes.
/Alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco-global.properties with:


# Enables google editable functionality
googledocs.googleeditable.enabled=True

# Google docs application name
googledocs.application.name=Alfresco ECM system

# Google docs URL
googledocs.url=http://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full
googledocs.downloadurl=https://docs.google.com/feeds/download

# System google docs authentication credentials
googledocs.username= my username
googledocs.password= my password

# Google docs spreadsheet service name
googledocs.spreadsheet.service.name=wise

After doing all this I have restarted the service but the drop down is still no available.

Can someone tell me specifically what needs to be changes if nothing was done at all. or what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

You should not be changing anything below WEB-INF

OK so the second file mentioned in this article https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://wiki.alfresco.com/w/images/7/78/Getting_Started_with_Using...

should not be altered, I only put in my username and password for google docs in there anyway. That's fine. but now how do i get this to work anyway?

Any help would be appreciated, i've spent 10h+ on this and have nothing to show for it.

Thanks,

In addition, what is the Google docs url suppose to be? the default is:
# Google docs URL
googledocs.url=http://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full
googledocs.downloadurl=https://docs.google.com/feeds/download

but when i open a browser and goto https://docs.google.com/feeds/download

I receive a page can not be found error.

thx.
