Hello.

I have run the windows-32bit-setup.exe on a WinXP 32bit  computer earliert today. The installation took a while but it went through. I can login into the web via 127.0.0.1\share bzw. http://192.168.0.61/share only from the computer where alfresco is running on. I can add news users, new sites via the web. I can upload files.

But I:

- can not open the webpage (http://192.168.0.61/share) from another pc in the same network.
- can not get access via iPad
- can not find a share "alfresco" in the windows network to use cifs. I can open other shares on the computer where alfresco is running.

I am google'ing for hours now but I guess version 4 is brand new. I have watched some YouTube movies but they are pointing to older versions.

Maybe someone can give me hint or link where I can find the anwers for my problems.

I appreaciate your help.

Thanks,
Phillipp

Hello.

2 of 3 problems are solved:

- I can now open the webpage from other computers in the newwork.
- I can open the documents on the iPad.

:arrow:  But I can still not find a share "afresco" in the network neighbourhood in the Windows Explorer.

Where do I have to make the adjstment? I found an older video for Alfescro 3.2 where I have to move some sample files but in version 4 these files are not there?

Thanks for your help.

Have you set cifs.enabled=true in your alfresco-global.properties?

On windows your share will be {MACHINENAME}A.    Not "Alfresco".

So for example my PC is called MARKR and the cifs share is MARKRA

So I can map MARKRA/Afresco and MARKRA/AVM
