WebDRM preview fails

Original Question or Issue:

I shared a file via the secure web viewer link but it doesn't show up when the recipient opens the file.


Environment:

  • Product - FileCloud Server
  • Version - 23.241
  • Platform - Windows

Steps to Reproduce:

Sharing a pdf, MS word or an image using the option "Allow anyone with secure Web Link".


Error or Log Message:

Failed to decode token.


Defect or Enhancement Number:

CL-15986


Cause:

The location of PHP used for token verification was hard-coded to C:\xampp\php


Resolution or Workaround:

Beginning with FileCloud release 23.242 the PHP path is configurable, now it can easily be changed to match customers environment:

  • Connect to the FileCloud web nodes and locate the drive where xampp directory is installed.
  • xampp was found under E drive, so navigate to folder E:\xampp\webdrm
  • Create a file named .env under the above directory.
  • Edit the file and add the line: FCWD_PHP_EXECUTABLE=E:/xampp/php/php.exe
  • Restart the WebDRM service from the FileCloud Control Panel.

Notes:
