Logging into Share Application

[neil_benn]

Hello,

        I have a problem trying to log into Alfresco share.  It used to work but recently it has stopped working.  I can log into the alfresco webapp, the SharePoint is working (except for the windows 7 bug) but I cannot log into the share webapp (using the same username and password that I use for the SharePoint and alfresco webapp).  I've tried bouncing the server to see if that did anything and still cannot log in.  I've waited a few mins before trying to log in but nothing happens except for the following error in a modal dialog box:

The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized.

  I get nothing reported in the alfresco.log file and a Google search is proving fruitless.  Does anyone know where I could start looking to determine the source of the problem?

Cheers,

Neil

Here is the alfresco-global properties file (note that I have fixed the pdf2swf and image magick).  I hope someone can help me to fix this; I've been trying to get Alfresco working for a month and it is a real shame that I’ve been trying so hard to get this working (I've put in over 100 hours on it so far with limited success) and I'm still running into problems.  Any help would be gratefully appreciated!  I don;t know if it matters but the systemj is running over a tunneled  port (I have 7070 and 8080 forwarded) port.

Hello,

       Never mind - this is just the latest in a bunch of nightmares I've had trying to get Alfresco to run and stay stable!  I've switched over to Nuxeo which just worked first time out of the box .

Cheers,

Neil
