Comments and problems with 2.9B

[mabayona]

I´ve been playing with 2.9B a cuple of days (i.e.last nighly 20080108) and my general impression is good, but have the following comments:

- CIFS not working (a fix seems to be in SVN for the next release)
- The "Projects" space shows a new entry in the  Create > New Project that dissapears if the directory changes its name.
- The distrubution algorithm of a "space browse" window has changed. Before it was that the column with most content gets the space and now it seems to be proportional even if the colum is empty. Well, i know that it maybe a personal taste thing but the previous algorithm seemed to use better the available space.

Anyway, good job and looking forward for the next nightly/release.

Hi

I've just upgraded from 2.1.0 community to 2.9B. I'm running on SuSe Linux - Tomcat with SQL server.

I've addedd the Office add-in and looks working with a couple of problems:

1) Tagging, if I click on the new tab I got a Script error. system try to access to a resource that's looks not available
below the error page if I try to access the script link via browser:

The Web Script /alfresco/wcservice/office has responded with a status of 404 - Not Found. 

404 Description: Requested resource is not available. 
  
Message: Script url /office does not map to a Web Script.

2) CIFS service from windows looks not operational with regular name "server_A\alfresco"
I can connect CIFS server mapping: \\server\alfresco I don't know if  this is correct.

I think there was a bug on this tab when there were no tags in the repo. It's been fixed in SVN, but a workaround for now is to tag at least one document and retry.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike, you are correct. once I tagged a document this error disappeared.

Thanks
