Document preview broken in 4.2.0

[zozoamam]

Hi all,

I have a new 4.2.0/Ubuntu 12.04 install up and running.

When I want to preview any document, have a message: "This document can't be previewed on this server"

Have that log:

Hello,
I have the same problem after upgrading Alfresco Community from 4.2.c to 4.2.e. The server is a debian 64bits on a VM, alfresco installed from script with only basic configuration (authentication and mail). Alfresco will freeze sometimes (no login, share frozen) I have the same error on alfresco.log and this error repeting on share.log

If someone can give me a hint or a solution, i had to go back to alfresco 4.2.c…

[eswbitto]

I ran into issues like this, but it had to do with the size of the document. Try adding this to your alfresco-global.properties and then restart alfresco.

content.transformer.OpenOffice.extensions.docx.pdf.maxSourceSizeKBytes=10240
‍‍‍

There is a link somewhere on a thread that has a lot more parameters to suit to individual needs. You will have to do some digging.

[boiss007]

No it isn't a size problem. I have already tried this solution, it didn't fix the problem but thanx for your quick reply.
Does everyone has .doc that wont preview? It would help to know just that. With community 4.2.c the same database and repertory had some .doc that wouldnt preview either, i really need that problem fixed.

[vincent_ravier]

@boiss007: even if you can't have the preview working as OP, your problem seems different. You're have a time out on a GET request.

@zozoamam: I think we have the same problem here, as exposed in my post:
http://forums.alfresco.com/forum/installation-upgrades-configuration-integration/configuration/42e-p...
Even with some research I didn't found your post, I'd rather have described mine as a reply.
However, I've got the same issue about thumbnail.get.js script and the "Read-Write transaction started within read-only transaction" error. I don't really have knowledge about webscripts, so I can't say how to resolve this…

[babt]

It seems that the thumbnail.remove() call on line 74 of thumbnail.get.js is trying to do an action which is not covered by the readonly transaction settings.
Changing the transaction from readonly to readwrite in the file templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/thumbnail/thumbnail.get.desc.xml solved at least this problem.
