OpenCMIS interface in Alfresco

[Karsten Eberding <ka...@eberding.eu>]

Hello,

I used to work with the older, native CMIS SOAP interface in Alfresco. 
When switching to OpenCMIS, I had a few challenges, I am using Alfresco 
CE 4.0d, which includes OpenCMIS 0.6.

1) it seems like OpenCMIS supports SOAP 1.1 only, while the native 
interface accepts 1.1 and 1.2 as well. Can you confirm this, I could not 
find anything in the documentation

2) More important, I am having a problem with getContentStream. When I 
call getContentStream without an offset and length parameter, I receive 
the content back. If I specify an offset, even with 0, the OpenCMIS 
interface does not return any response, not even a SOAP Fault. The 
client keeps waiting until time out. The Alfresco log files do not show 
any error either.

I assume this is more an OpenCMIS than an Alfresco issue.

thanks for any help or suggestions

 Hi Karsten,

 OpenCMIS only supports SOAP 1.1 out-of-the-box. It is possible to 
 activate SOAP 1.2, but that is not documented and untested.

 The getContentStream problem is not an OpenCMIS issue. The TCK contains 
 a test for that and works fine against the OpenCMIS InMemory repository, 
 the SAP NetWeaver Cloud Document Service and the public Alfresco server.
