How to use Collabora? All I get is "OK".
-
Ah, so Collabora is the backend and there has to be a frontend? That was not clear to me.
Is there a common frontend? I should add, I am specifically trying to avoid using NextCloud and OwnCloud. -
Hate to say it, but I cannot find an alternate front end to it. There might be one, but documentation on it is pretty scarce, every tutorial I've ever seen has just told how to let nextcloud use it.
-
The parent comment is correct. CODE is the server, you need the "Collabora Online app" for document editing. I'm not aware if there are alternatives to the ownCloud / Nextcloud apps.
-
I don't know of another frontend. You might want to try only office instead.
-
You need a way to hand it a file for editing, nextcloud can do that
-
Moodle can also use collabora.
-
Seams ok to me
-
Meaning, surely Collabora office does more than just say "OK", right?
-
But, does Collabora office just display the message "OK" and that's it? I was expecting a display of some sort.
-
I have it hooked up to nextcloud and get a UI for documents in there. There's an area in the settings there where you can point it to collabora. I haven't used it outside of that, but it does have a UI. It's not on the root url though. I forget where it is, but you may be able to find what that is.
-
collabora doesn't provide a frontend and isn't meant to be a standalone document editor. the "ok" is expected behavior and indicates the server is functional. you need a different service that supports collabora integration, such as nextcloud. then you just enter the address of your server and it should work
