Hi,

I am on bitnami alfresco 4.2e I set up a rule on document library and it will be activated when a new file uploaded to a folder or subfolder. My problem is the rule run two times, I get 2 emails. One of them is the correct one, the other is something lik this: xyzuser has added a new content bab78ae5-480d-43e1-9ade-fcb6ed77b23d to the xyz database…
The link in the email does't work and I don't know how can I turn it off. The send email rule works fine if the "when" case is update. Is there anybody who can provide me a solution?

What are your rule conditions and how are you uploading.

I attached the rule settings as a screenshot. I upload the files with drag and drop function into share (I use google chrome).

I think it is a bug… I turned of the rule for subfolders and it solved the problem.

Do you have any customisation (behavior?) or any other rule which, by any chance, would also do something when your content is created?

I have two rules on each folder. One for when new content added, the other when updated. Now they work fine if the subfolder option is turned off.

I just experienced an other interesting thing )maybe a bug or wrong settings…

I connected to alfresco via webdav (with manager user) and when I add a new file I get 4 emails. One is about the new content (rule1) The other three is about ubdate emails… So something wrong with my rule for getting emails on update. Any Idea?
