Configuring the Collaborative Documents App
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
The Documents application supports editing documents within Nextcloud, without the
|
|
need to launch an external application. The Documents app supports these
|
|
features:
|
|
|
|
* Cooperative edit, with multiple users editing files simultaneously.
|
|
* Document creation within Nextcloud.
|
|
* Document upload.
|
|
* Share and edit files in the browser, and then share them inside Nextcloud or
|
|
through a public link.
|
|
|
|
Supported file formats are `.odt`, `.doc`, and `.docx`. `.odt` is supported
|
|
natively in Nextcloud, and you must have LibreOffice or OpenOffice installed on
|
|
the Nextcloud server to convert `.doc`, and `.docx` documents.
|
|
|
|
Enabling the Documents App
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Go to your Apps page and click the ``Enable`` button. You also have the option
|
|
to grant access to the Documents apps to selected user groups. By default it is
|
|
available to all groups.

|
|
|
See "Collaborative Document Editing" in the User manual to learn how to create
|
|
and share documents in the Documents application.
|
|
|
|
Enabling and testing MS Word support
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Go to your admin settings menu. After choosing ``Local`` or ``External`` click
|
|
on the ``Apply and test`` button. If you have a working LibreOffice or OpenOffice
|
|
installation a green ``Saved`` icon should appear.

Troubleshooting
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
If the mentioned test fails please make sure that:
|
|
|
|
* the PHP functions ``escapeshellarg`` and ``shell_exec`` are not disabled in your
|
|
PHP configuration
|
|
* the libreoffice/openoffice binary is within your PATH and is executeable for the
|
|
HTTP user
|
|
* your SELinux configuration is not blocking the execution of the binary
|
|
* the PHP ``open_basedir`` is correctly configured to allow the access to the binary
|
|
|
|
More hints why the test is failing can be found in your ``data/owncloud.log``.
