Laserfiche 11 Web Client export URL is not working

asked on June 7, 2022 • Show version history

Hi, We have recently upgraded to Laserfiche 11 in our test environment. What we have noticed is that the export URL is not working as mentioned in the documentation. We use this URL heavily as it is stored in another system for users to download LF attachments.

https://ServerName/laserfiche/electronicfile.aspx?db=dbName&id=EntryID&mode=Export

It always show a blank page and does not download file. We have reproduced it in two different environments of LF 11. It's fine in LF 10.4.2 that we were using previously.

Is there any hotfix or resolution for that?

Edit: Same problem after applying Web Client 11 update 3.

In the browser, getting some errors.

I've looked into it a bit and it appears that the problem is that the patch for Update 3 is missing file. The old version, which you probably still have, is not compatible with other changes that the patch installed, and that is causing the script error.

We'll need to confirm this finding, and decide how we want to deliver the fix (make Update 4 or re-release Update 3), and I don't have an ETA for a proper release. If you go through support they can give you earlier access. The other option is that it appears that a clean install doesn't have this problem, since it installs the latest version of all the files. I know that's a pain, but it's something you can do now.

I remember that I had a clean installed on one of the server and the same issue appeared. Anyhow, I will try that again by uninstalling and doing LF Web Client 11 clean install.

Are there any specific things I have to take care while uninstalling and reinstalling Web Client 11 for the clean install?

I haven't follow up on this part. There was a bug filed against it but no update as of my knowledge.

For my case, I had to add redirect script in the file to document view page as workaround and users can download manually from the toolbar.

@████████

I opened a case with my VAR and looks like LF still has not addressed this issue or provided a patched workaround, like a redirect script in IIS. That's a clever idea and one I would like to see provided to clients.

It is a little crazy that this issue is still outstanding!

I'll have to find all my workflows with URL activities and change them off the export/download option. I don't know of an easy way to identify all these without going into each individually.

We haven't released a fix yet, but support has given it out for a few cases.

Is there any plan to fix this?

I have another post related to mobile App where a bug was identified and filed. But no update since couple of months now.

@████████can you let me know if this has a fix released or if you can hand it out to me for a client of ours having this same problem? I can open a case if need be.
