Space/content with categories gives an error in Share Ent3.4

[fincoder]

Hi,

I'm using Alfresco Enterprise 3.4.0. I have a problem when trying to open a space which have contents with categories. This happens only in Share (Repository). In Explorer everything works fine.

So when I log…
- into Share as an admin: I can see the space with the contents with the categories. This works fine.
- into Explorer as a contributor and as an admin: I can see the space with the contents with categories. This works fine too.
- into Share as a contributor: I can see the space in the repository tree. But when I'm trying to open it to see its contents, I get an error:
05130023 Wrapped Exception (with status template): 051312551 Error during processing of the template 'get(name) failed on instance of org.alfresco.repo.template.TemplateNode'. Please contact your system administrator.

alfresco.log says this:
08:43:30,395 ERROR [freemarker.runtime] get(name) failed on instance of org.alfresco.repo.template.TemplateNode

And when the space do not have contents with categories everything works fine also in Share as a non-admin. So there is something wrong with Share  + space/contents with the categories + a non-admin user. Does anyone have an idea what should I do?
Is there some file/place where I can set some user rights for a contributor to see the space contents with categories in a Share?

That error looks familiar, so it may be a known issue.    I suggest you contact Alfresco support.

I didn't get any direct solution to this from Alfresco Support.

I was finally advised to upgrade 3.4.0 Enterprise to 3.4.2.
Maybe I have to do that, but before that I will still look for an answer to this problem. If someone had this problem too…
