Hi

I am looking for some help with this..

I have a pretty basic Alfresco community installation and I am trying to get the authentication sorted out.

Environment
Alfresco: Community 5.0d
Server: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
AD Server: Windows 2012
Clients: Windows 7
iPad with Alfresco mobile app version 2.1.2
network: LAN - without proxy or anything clever

Outcome
CIFS drive mapping on Windows 7 desktop
NTLM SSO for web client - and in particular to use the sharepoint protocol to allow edit online, etc.
Alfresco mobile app - to access the repository

Current status
With the settings below - the Windows clients are working as desired…
Mobile app will no connect

I have turned on DEBUG in CMIS in ./tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties
And get the error in  the alfresco.log file below.

If I undo the NTLM and SSO changes then the mobile client works - and o the desktop doesn’t do SSO and the edit online doesn't work.

I am pretty new to Alfresco so any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated.

I installed the opencmis workbench to make testing a little easier - and have the same error when connect from that.

thanks, Jon

I have tested the configuration against Community 5.0.c and found that release works with the configuration I have used….
Therefore I have raised a JIRA issue (hope I did it right)

I also tested against the Early Access release of 5.1 - 201508, and the issue is in that build as well….

cheers, Jon
