Problem when editing online with NTLM SSO authentication is enabled in Alfresco 201605GA with Libreoffice 5.x

CesarCapillas commented 7 years ago

It seems that it is not possible to edit online from Libreoffice 5.x when NTLM SSO is enabled (with alfrescoNTLM authentication subsystem). It's is not completely clear at this moment, if it is both an issue of Libreoffice 5.x when trying to use Windows credentials, or it's derived from Alfresco authentication subsystem (webdav challenge). Libreoffice 5.x (via webdav) can not use the Windows credentials, but it seems that repository is waiting only NTLM credentials, so it is a problem not only for webdav, also for CMIS or REST API.

By the moment, we recommend to use in alfresco-global.properties:

ntlm.authentication.sso.enabled=false
