Office 2013 Connect to Alfresco

carnold

Alfresco community 4.2c from wizard installer. I am completely missing the boat on how to connect office 2013 to alfresco. Can some kind soul inform/point me to the correct way to do this?

I guess i would like to know if the share point protocol module is included with the wizard installer?

It should be installed by default if you used the Windows or Linux installer and it should be sitting on port 7070. You need to check that you have a VTI server running on port 7070. You should be able to see this in alfresco.log and / or catalina.out.

To check that your sharepoint service is installed look for a directory

/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/module/org.alfresco.module.vti/context
‍‍‍

Assuming these are all there you should just be able to point to your Alfresco server on port 7070 as if it were a SharePoint server.

The documentation for 4.0.2 may also be of use to you. See

I have a question about this setup. If I'm running alfresco on linux and I have apache as the front end handling the SSL connection. How will that effect using Microsoft office?

The reason I ask is I can't get it to work even following the setup guide.

1. I opened the vti-context.xml file and edited the following:

<bean id="vtiServerConnector" class="org.mortbay.jetty.security.SslSocketConnector"> 
     <property name="port"> 
     <value>${vti.server.port}</value> 
     </property> 
        <property name="headerBufferSize"> 
             <value>8192</value> 
        </property> 
        <property name="maxIdleTime"> 
             <value>30000</value> 
        </property> 
        <property name="keystore"> 
             <value>/opt/alfresco/alf_data/keystore/keystore.jks</value> 
        </property> 
        <property name="keyPassword"> 
             <value>changeit</value> 
        </property> 
        <property name="password"> 
             <value>changeit</value> 
        </property> 
        <property name="keystoreType"> 
             <value>JKS</value> 
        </property> 
    </bean>

(and commented out the httpd connector script above it.)

2. javahome/bin/./keytool -genkeypair -alias alfresco -keystore /opt/alfresco/alf_data/keystore/keystore.jks -storepass changeit -keypass changeit -keyalg RSA -validity 360 -keysize 2048 -storetype JKS

to create that file.

3. There is a part of the instructions that talk about importing a generated cer file into the cacerts file. I have excluded that part because of apache handling the SSL connection. Is this a requirement for alfresco and microsoft office to talk?

4. The steps where is says to modify or add (I had to add in my case)the share-config-custom.xml with some scripting I have tried adding it and also not have it on there.

Doing all that it doesn't work. I have probably missed a step somewhere or I have to do something in addition. I've tried combing through the forums for others with this issue and most posts go unanswered.

My goal is for the end users to be able to open microsoft office and be able to access alfresco using a SSL connection. Which is imperative obviously.

Note that Office 2013 is not supported in the 4.x <strong>community edition</strong>, not even in the 5.0.d edition yet. See https://www.alfresco.com/cmis/views/workspace%253A%252F%252FSpacesStore%252F14284638-0222-4871-8b06-66a5a378cd5a
