Description

« Hide

This renders much of my site useless. For students with office 2007 (possibly other browser/office combos too) and IE7, powerpoint and word files will not save or open. There is a message saying that the site could not be found. Firefox works flawlessly for the same files.

I'm not able to get to the server for a week or so and can't check the logs,

Please make sure SP1 for Office 2007 is installed and report if is solves the problem.

Just tried, but it makes no difference.

Please describe exact steps to replicate.

I do, but only for login.

I'm on win2k3, apache 2.0 phpinfo now attached. I will examine the server logs as soon as I can.
