Problem using guest access

[lgr]

Hi all,

I'm trying to configure a guest access to some content on my repository.
I've added "Guest" with guest rights on the root node (and i also have configured guest access for group everyone).

I'm using Firefox. I disconnect from Alfresco, then try to access the URL. It redirects me to the login page. Then, if i connect with my admin login, Alfresco says that i'm not connected, i'm only a guest.

When i close my firefox, and reopens it with the URL, it opens the document without a login page, so i think it is due to some firefox persistence that i can't explain yet.


Anyway, it seems to work well without having to add a ?guest=true at the end of the URL. But the document was a html one. Il also works with a pdf file.

But, when i try to access some other winword .doc with the direct URL in Internet Explorer or Firefox, it delivers the document but also generates some error in Alfresco :

So, i've got 2 questions :
1. Do i have to define a user guest specific access, or is defining a guest access on EVERYONE enough ?
2. Do you know why this error occurs ?

Since this is possible compiler thread that crashes JVM (i have 10-15 of such errors in log file) - I'll try to upgrade to JDK 5.0 Update 7 or higher.
If this won't help, I'll try to write a testcase and submit bug report.
Stay tuned.
