Download and inline edit of text file has stopped working

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hi all,

On my new installation of Alfresco Community 4.0.e, downloading or inline-edit of simple text files seems to have stopped working.

* log in as admin
* go to Repository Browser
* Create content… Plain Text…
* Create file "test.txt" with content "hello world"
* the file shows up fine in the web preview
* select the Inline Edit action
* the edit form appears, but the content field is not shown - just Name, Title, Description
* cancel, and try the Download action instead (or View in Browser). This displays the following raw HTML error:

Grateful for any pointers…

Does the problem occur if you wait a while (like 5 minutes, for example) between creating the document and attempting to edit? (Obviously your end users shouldn't have to wait, I'm just wondering if the document shows up eventually). Seeing that 404 on a download of a file you just created makes me wonder if your search index is lagging.
