In the Document Management System, the Admin can propogate Permissions to all files and subfolders undrneath a folder. Is there a way to set it so that users with permissions can do this? Thanks


Hello,

Without a re-design of the permissions system, there isn't a way to do this at this time.

Hello,

The DMS module will support full text search of word documents; but, like the docmanager module also requires swish-e. I have, however, made the swish-e configuration a lot easier than in the past.

I am having the same problem, getting the following when I trying adding a doc.

Error: Unable to move file.
SP:/tmp/php16JZfg
DP:/homepages/44/d104908039/modules/dms/dms_repository/1/1/1/1000001.dat

I have confirmed that folder and file perms are at 777, and I have applied the changes to the 2 files suggested (folder_new and file_new).

Any help is greatly appreciated!


Hello,

Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce most of the upload problems people are having. One thing that someone mentioned, however, is that the module doesn't always work if PHP is running in safe mode. The reason that the file is failing to upload could be because the destination path may not be created in the repository. I found a note that the mkdir() php function will check to make sure that it is creating a directory in a directory that the user is owner of. (http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php) Based upon this statement, check to see if the correct path is being created. The path will be listed in the line that begins with "DP:" If the path is not being created, try using the "chown" command to change the owner of the repository directory to the same user that Apache is running under. Please let me know if this works.

Regards,

Brian Reifsnyder

anyone know how come registered users cannot import documents & create folders in the document management system module?


Hello,

The most likely explanation is that the users are trying to create documents and folders in the root of the document management system. Only administrators can create documents in the root. All other users have to create documents and folders in an existing folder.

Maybe, I should make that optional.

This is the hardest module to configure I've ever seen?

I can't even work out the templates bit? I've created a templates folder, but then the ReadMe says 'and upload document templates to it....'. ??? What templates? Another modules? I've gone to the XOOPS Templates Manager and the module 'dms' is not listed at all, so how do I create the templates for the module?


Using version 0.98 - new install.


Hello,

Yes, I know, this module is hard to configure. It has a lot of features that are optional.

The templates folder is a folder that stores document templates. For example, if you have a document with a letterhead that you regularly use, you can save the blank document with only the letterhead on it as a template. Then, if you need to type up a document that has this letterhead all you have to do is select this template when creating the document. I hop that explanation helps.

I'll chmod them to 777, just in case.

Windows? Is that one of those things that virus writers use to spread their products? ;) Don't want to start an OS war here, so if anyone has strong religious convictions on the subject of MS stock and the Church of Gates, please forgive me, assume I am a Bohemian anti-capitalist or whatever suits your fancy, and don't bother to flame me, because I Just Don't Care.

This is Debian "Sarge" just for the record. It might make it easier to guess what I'm doing wrong, now that you know that. I'll see if I can find one of those "whatcha got" templates in the Help forums and fill you in completely.

Since I can get raw data if I comment out a lot of the php IF sections, I beleive it's running.



Hello,

Sorry for the delay in replying.

Ok, this is given:

1 Swish-E creates an index
2 If some of the php code is commented out, raw data is displayed

So, the system appears to be mostly working. You may have already checked this; but, does the user account you are logged in as have the permission to access the files that you are searching for? This is the only reason that I know of that the php code will not display data that it finds.

That leaves me still baffled, then. The user and group in Apache are the owner(s) of the swish-e database. I can't imagine what else can be doing this.

Thanks, Brian. That would be the userID that's in the httpd.conf file, right? (I don't want to change anything until I'm sure it's the right thing to change.)

The full text search is working fine for me.


It has to be a permissions issue, then. Can you tell me what permissions I *should* have on the repository? Or on the swish-e database files in the repository, in the event they're different?
