failed to action task - please help!

[ddvorak]

We are using Community 3.3. Everything is working well except….users are getting "failed to action task" error when trying to accept an invite to a site. I will post configuration of the server.xml file and the error logs (essentially the same error in catalina.out and alfresco.log). I have outbound email set up in alfresco-global.properties so the user gets emailed an invitation to the site with a link. If the user clicks the link, there is no error. If the user tries to accept the invitation using the "accept" link from "My Tasks" they get the failure message.

I've found a bug report that seems similar, but am not sure what else to look at. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

http://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-3672

Configuration of server.xml:

    <!– A "Connector" represents an endpoint by which requests are received
         and responses are returned. Documentation at :
         Java HTTP Connector: /docs/config/http.html (blocking & non-blocking)
         Java AJP  Connector: /docs/config/ajp.html
         APR (HTTP/AJP) Connector: /docs/apr.html
         Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080
    –>

    <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

    <!– Define a SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443
         This connector uses the JSSE configuration, when using APR, the
         connector should be using the OpenSSL style configuration
         described in the APR documentation –>

    <Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
               keystoreFile="path_to_file"
               keystorePass="password for cert" />

yes i have spent a few weeks with the same problem…and it appears no
fix in sight…

[joe_m]

I think this is fixed in 3.3g, it works for me.

[ddvorak]

I tried 3.3g - it did not fix the problem.

[sebastian1]

I have the same problem with enterprise 3.3.1
Did anyone find a solution for that?

Hm if you approve it using the Alfresco Explorer, then it works!
But this why doesnt it work with share? Thats not acceptable!

[michaelc]

I have the issue in 3.3g.

I found as a workaround you can sign in on 8080 and it works.

No one has an answer for this issue ?

Having same problem, I can invite users but they can't accept the invite.  Clicking on Accept in the share page always returns an error.  PLEASE !!!! HELP !!! this is that last step to a long overdue rollout…
