[anfy2002us]

I stuck on this problem second day, and I think that's inpossible to run CIFS under Windows XP pro 64 bit, i when i run nbtsat -n i see that its registered, but when i access \\localhost_a\alfresco, the virtual machine crashes

Have you tried to copy Win32NetbiosX64.dll from your alresco/bin directory into the windows/system32 directory?

yes I did it but it's not working

yes I did it but it's not working

I'm sure, but I think it was mentioned in some discussion that similar problem was caused by bug in Java 1.5_06. What version are you using?

Hi,

The Alfresco CIFS server should work under 64bit Windows. Are you using a 32bit or 64bit version of the JVM ?. Are there any errors in the alfresco.log or a JVM crash log that you could email to me ?.

Cheers

Hi
I'm using 32 bit version of the JVM
this is alfresco.log

Hi,

I've managed to reproduce the problem here under WinXP x64 with a 64bit JVM. The error log looks the same with the host announce error messages.

I've written a few test apps that use the code in the repository.jar and the JNI DLLs, these all work ok. One of the test apps adds a file server name and listens for an incoming request in the same way that the CIFS server would listen, that worked fine.

I'm currently installing Eclipse on the WinXP x64 VM so that I can run the code under a debugger to find out where the code is crashing. It seems to be shortly after the new connection has been made, rather than the listen request.

Cheers

Hi,

I've finally tracked the problem down, it's due to the preview kit containing a 32bit JVM.

If you change the line near the top of the alfresco.bat to the following Alfresco will start using the default Java JVM rather than the 32bit version embedded in the preview :-

if "%ProgramFiles(x86)%" == "" set JAVA_HOME=%ALF_HOME%java

You'll need to make sure there is a 64bit JVM installed.

Cheers
