4.2e Only admin can zip and download

[lem000]

Just installed 4.2e on Ubuntu 12.04. All running nicely except the 'Zip and Download' function which only the admin user can operate successfully.
For other users it gets to n-1 files on the progress bar and hangs indefinitely.

I assume it is related to access to downloads folder in the Repository which appears to be created at the time of use.

Dug this out of the log. As I thought, it's a permissions issue. Any ideas on how to fix this?

[lem000]

Not been able to find a way around this, so have raised it as a bug. Would be useful to know if other 4.2 users experience the same problem.

https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-20609

[lem000]

Does anyone know a workaround for this?

Is it fixed in 4.2f?

Your issue is linked to the folder-quota extension you are using.

This is an old thread, but just in case others come across it, the Folder Quota add-on is now being maintained at GitHub. I have also seen this problem with the addon and download as zip running in 5.0.4 Enterprise, so I have created an issue to track it here:
