Alfresco Kofax Ascent capture integration

[amarendrakt]

Hi,


I am working on integrating Alfresco 2.1 with Kofax Ascent Capture 7.0.

i have installed the Alfresco release script on Kofax Ascent Capture.but but while connecting to alfresco from the installed release script i am getting some exception which i am not able to solve. i am using my admin username and password of alfresco to connect and the url on which i am connecting is

http://machinename:8080/alfresco

i have also installed MS webservices 2.0.

can you give me some suggestion where i am going wrong.

the log for the exception is as follows

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Was this problem ever solved?

[peterh_nl]

If you strictly follow the instructions AND fill out the correct values in the script-dialog, it should work with Alfresco 2.1 and Kofax >7.0.

C my other post on problem with Alfresco 2.9B (no response yet unfortunately) which looks like a problem with the webservice-request, not connecting/authenticating.

Good luck,
Peter
