installing sharepoint protocol

[aldar]

Hello.
I know this issue discussed many times on the forum, but after reading all the topics I couldn't find clear answer.

I installed alfresco community 5.0.a on ubuntu server.
Documentation says sharepoint module is installed by default. I checked /alfresco-5.0.a/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/module/org.alfresco.module.vti/context folder, and it was absent. In org.alfresco.module.vti directory was only these 3 files modifications.install,  module-context.xml,  module.properties; and no context folder. However, MMT displays:

Module 'org.alfresco.module.vti' installed in 'tomcat/webapps/alfresco'
   -    Title:        Vti
   -    Version:      1.3
   -    Install Date: Sat Jul 26 06:46:55 ULAT 2014
   -    Description:   Alfresco Vti Extension, provides Sharepoint protocol‍‍‍‍‍

and server is listening on port 7070, the problem is that there is no contextfolder and no edit online button either at /share and /alfresco.
Using MMT I reinstalled /amps/alfresco-spp.amp that was by default in amps folder, - still no result.

Thank you, that was it!
The "Edit Online" option does appear in 5.0.c, provided you create the document in a site, not in My Files.

Can others confirm it is actually working for them as well?

The UI evaluator (https://github.com/Alfresco/community-edition/blob/master/projects/slingshot/config/alfresco/slingsh... ) specifically requires that the content is part of a site. I've not tried it, but I believe that this requirement could be safely removed by overriding that evaluator, if anyone needs to do so on 5.0.c.
