Cannot download files with docman component

There seems to be a bug in the Docman Component 1.4.0 rc3. The component works fine except that it does not allow users to download the document . (Download button is missing)

The simple fix to it is as follows

1. login to FTP and browse the ‘docman’ folder under ‘plugins’ folder in the Joomla root directory

2. Now extract (unzip) the com_docman_1.4.0_rc3.zip file on your harddisk

3. copy 2 files from the ‘plugins’ folder (standardbuttons.php and standardbuttons.xml.php) from the files extracted in step 2 above

4. paste the files referred in step 3 to your FTP path mentioned in Step 1 above ie ‘plugins/docman’

Thats it… You will see the download link working now.

NOTE : If you are not able to copy the files to your FTP, this might be due to the fact that the apache user is the owner of the’docman’ folder under ‘plugins’ folder

To change the ownership

Login to SSH using ‘root’ user and  change the ownership of the docman folder (under plugin folder) to your user

command

chown username:usergroup filename

OR

chown username:usergroup foldername
