When I try to edit metadata in Share:

Could not load dialog template from '/share/service/components/form?itemKind=node&itemId=workspace://SpacesStore/5b5ea36c-0e66-4aeb-aeb1-ea10e4f320af&destination={destination}&mode=edit&submitType=json&formId=doclib-simple-metadata&showCancelButton=true' ‍

When I try to view metadata in Share:

In order to run edit metadata properly in Share, make sure it runs properly first in Alfresco Explorer.

So before moving ahead with Share, It should properly work in Alfresco. Are you getting any exception when the server starts related to content configurations?

[robbb]

I rewrote my share-config-custom.xml and now it works, but I have not identified the problem.

Thanks,
Roberto
