eDocman upload question

Hi,

I installed eDocman on a Joomla 1.7 site, with CB installed (not sure if this is relevant).

The problem I have is that I get an error when I try to upload a document from the front end as a registered user.

This is the error I get:
500 - View not found [name, type, prefix]: documents, html, edocmanView :dry:

The upload works fine as superuser, but not as registered user.

Any hints to what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!
Marcello

I am having the same issue as Marcello.

Joomla 1.7.3, no CB installed.

Created a user and a category. Gave the user full permissions to the category. Access on front-end is working as expected. However, when attempting to upload a document, getting the error:

500 - View not found [name, type, prefix]: documents, html, edocmanView

Could it be this line (line #66) in <Joomla Root>/components/com_edocman/views/document:

If the front-end function is trying to pull script from the administrative folder, this may be causing the problem. Perhaps not!!

This is a little frustrating. It appears as though this extension was not thoroughly tested, or this issue (and the CSS issue in my other forum post) would have been quickly discovered.

I solved it by setting the right permissions.

Go to "Components" -> "Edocman" -> "Categories" and select the "options" button on the upper right corner of the page.

Select the group your user belongs to and grant permission to Create, Delete and Edit Own.

HTH

Cheers,

Thanks Marcello so much for sharing the solution !

I have had that same problem. I have all those settings set correctly and even as admin I get that 500 error. Then if you click on the home link in that error, I see a top message that the document was saved and it's there. It's very annoying though and would love to see a solution. Thanks!
