NTLM Error in Share, Alfresco works fine

[danovtx]

Hi All,

I'd like to get the Share application up and running to try out, and hopefully start using for projects, but it's not running on our setup.  We have a windows server with Labs 3 stable installed, and the Alfresco application is up and running fine with NTLM authentication against our Domain controller.  If I go to the Studio application, it shows a simple screen and says 'welcome to alfresco web studio' but that's it, and I get the following error when I go to the Share application.  Any one have any ideas what's going on, or has anyone seen this before??

type Exception report

Found everything I needed here:

The answer is that someone broke something with NTLM for Share right before the final release was built, and no one caught it.  Someone on that post was nice enough to create a fix and post it.  I just got done with the instructions and now it all works like a dream come true.

Yes that is about right, I am glad your Alfresco dream came true.
