Create a new Workspace

I cannot create a new workspace, I would like a workspace based on the Project Template but when I attempt to create a new workspace even a blank one I get the following error:

'Workspace creation failed. Your workspace may not be functional or complete.'
 
Is this just cos its Beta or am I missing something?
 
The default Documents workspace seems OK but I have only uploaded 1 file at present.
 
Anyone any ideas?
 
Thanks,
Malc.

Re: Create a new Workspace

Hi Malcom, let me try to help you out. A couple of questions: 1) What URL are you using? (it may be the beta, but you still shouldn’t see this problem consistently)2) Can you tell me if you can create a workspace using any other template? Is the failure only with the project workspace?

 Thanks for your patience.

Re: Create a new Workspace

I use http://workspace.office.live.com and its in my trusted sites list (*.live.com).

I have tried a few templates and none work.

Thanks for your reply.

Re: Create a new Workspace

That is weird. It shouldn't matter either if it is a trusted site in order for templates to work. Let me try to get a little bit deeper to see if we can replicate the behavior on our end.

Thanks for the patience!

Re: Create a new Workspace

Hi Malcolm. I'm part of the OLW Test team and I've been trying to reproduce your issue but have had no luck. Can you still see this issue?

Thanks!

Re: Create a new Workspace

Still does not work, not even bothering to use now. BTW Office 2007 online help has never worked also, could there be an issue with our firewall or ISA server at our Head Office?

Thanks anyway,

Malc.

Re: Create a new Workspace

Hi Malcom,

Just a quick question, but have you at all contacted support about this ongoing problem?

Re: Create a new Workspace

No, as the software is beta I didn't think it was appropriate. What I will try however is to see if I can get it to work from home and bypass our proxy server and firewall. I'll post back the results.

 Thanks,

Malc.

Re: Create a new Workspace

Works OK from home, created two workspaces, also Office Online help works but neither work at Work. There must be some firewall rule blocking these on the ISA 2000 server at Head Office, can you let me know what ports/protocols need to be allowed to ensure these will work so I can pass the details on. Thanks.
