Hello,

I am not able to connect to our Alfresco community server using the alfresco app. My details are:
Server port: 443
Service URL: /alfresco

The error message is "Your service url value is incorrect. Please check your account settings."

When I login to alfresco via a browser, this is the site I am redirected to: https://alfresco.roullier.com/alfresco/faces/jsp/dialog/container.jsp

Is there any min-Version required?

If you are running Alfresco at home and you are trying to hit it from your Android device, you'll need the IP address of your server. For example, if I do an "ifconfig" on my Mac I can see that my IP address of my macbook is 192.168.0.14 (believe it is ipconfig on windows). Your address may be similar, but it depends on how your router is configured to assign addresses. Using that address I can hit my Alfresco server from any other machine on my network, including my mobile devices.

The 127.0.0.1 address is called a "loopback" address. It only works when referring to the same machine you are on. So, if I am sitting on my macbook I can use that address to refer to my macbook. If I am on another machine, using that address refers to that other machine. It can never be used to refer to a different machine.

Hope that makes sense.

Check you haven't got a firewall enabled and blocking inbound connections to port 8080. This might be on by default without you having set it, depending on your operating system.

I am not sure exactly what you are looking for, but if you are looking for an extension your best bet is to search http://addons.alfresco.com.

Hi Jeff
I'm having a similar issue. When connecting using https I receive Connection Error "Your Service URL is incorrect" I'm running Alfresco community 4.2d using apache proxy to connect with https and a temporally commercial certificate before I was able to connect using any IOS device but since last 3 weeks after an update I can't and with Android I never been able to connect using https. All this problems are only when connecting with https if I use http no problems at all.
My settings:
hostname: mycompany.com
HTTPS Enabled
Port: 7443 (Changed this on the alfresco-global.properties file)
Service URL: /alfresco/service/cmis
Could you please advise
Thanks and Regards,
