Description

Using cmislib I cannot checkout any documents (both simple and versionable). Here the code I'm using:

obj = self._repo.getObject(objectId)
pwc = obj.checkout()

in the model.py file I'm receiving this error:

HTTPError: HTTP Error 400: Bad Request

and then:

InvalidArgumentException: Error 400 at http://teamtest:8080/alfresco/cmisatom/000fb4b4-d4b6-4ef7-a049-67939b9d70c8/checkedout

during:
result = self._cmisClient.post(checkoutUrl.encode('utf-8'),
entryXmlDoc.toxml(encoding='utf-8'),
ATOM_XML_ENTRY_TYPE)

I verified that canCheckOut is in the allowable actions for the document.
I also verified that the obj can be fetch correctly from the repository.

Something I'm doing wrong?
Thank in advance for your support.
