KM Document iView for displaying PDF file.

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have uploaded one pdf file (Estimate.pdf) to KM in folder abc. I want to create an iView to display that pdf file in portal. For which I have created a KM Document iView and in "Path to Document" property I have assigned the document path like: /documents/abc/Estimate.pdf

Now when try to see preview, instead of opening my pdf file, it shows only one image on top with text mySAP.com.

I have also tried to create a link to my document and given the link path but I got the same result.

Can anyone tell me why is this happening? Is there any other property to be set?

Thanks in advance!!!!!

Vikranth,

Check for the path again carefully. I guess you are following the right approach, but instead of previewing it, try assigning it to a user and check what happens.

Refer to this [article|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0235c19-9493-2b10-64a5-8487b23a7a41]for creation of iviews.

Good Luck!

Hi All,

I am also having this kind of problem. I have assigned the path like /document/shan/Lighthouse.jpg but it shows only the image mySAP.com while previewing. I have checked path name clearly.

Please provide a solution.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

might also be caching issue of the browser. Try hitting Strg+F5 (= fresh page reload). That worked for me.

Hi,

While creating the iView Try using the template KM Document iView Without Content Filter instead of KM Document iView. Specify the same path and try

I hope this template should work
