Opening a file in Document management system

Asked by Bushair

Hi,
I have installed the Document management system and added a new folder.

Under this folder added a new file as attachement.

I could see the attached doc file and when i select the the new folder that i created.

when i select the Document , am getting the below details in the attachment tab.

Data
File Content: 8.00 bytes Save As
Filename: Requirement Gethering and Analaysis.docx
Preview

Why The preview coloumn is blank.?

If i select the Save As button, the document is getting opened.
Why the attached document is not getting opened when i select the attached document without selecting the Save As button?

Thanks

AFAIK, DOCX files are not yet supported.

but that's just a matter of linking the proper converter, so a patch should be easy to implement.

i'll write one and let you know

if you're sure the content of the .txt file were not indexed i think you have to file a bug

Operating system? OpenERP version?

Did you install from RPMs?
I think, only if you install from RPMs, v6.0 you may be asked for the right
dependencies for the file indexers.
