Hello, I have tried to do the example but the problem is that I only have the file to alfresco.war, so I can't see the code to make the changes. There is some way to do it from this file?

Thanks

You can do a manual deployment in JBoss, this way the files will always be extracted, thus you can add custom JSPs and they won't be wiped out when you re-start the server (like they do normally with JBoss).

In the deploy directory create a folder called "alfresco.war". Extract the contents of alfresco.war (the file) into alfresco.war (the folder) and start JBoss.

As always custom configuration files can go into <JBoss>/server/default/conf/alfresco/extension

Hope that helps.

Hello gavinic, I'm proving the CustomLogin example but it not work. It shows the following error when I login:

javax.portlet.PortletException: Error calling action method of component with id browse:login

caused by:
javax.faces.FacesException: Error calling action method of component with id browse:login

caused by:
javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: Exception while invoking expression #{LoginBean.logout}

caused by:
javax.faces.FacesException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: org.alfresco.sample.CustomLoginBean

caused by:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: org.alfresco.sample.CustomLoginBean

Where I place the CustomLoginBean class ???

Thanks

In that case you will need to put it within WEB-INF. You can either place the class file directly in WEB-INF/classes or you can package the class in a JAR file and place it in WEB-INF/lib.

Hi, I've modified some code in CustomLoginBean.java, then move to "sdk/samples/CustomLogin", perform ant building, but the result zip & jar files do not contain: CustomLoginBean.class, faces-config-custom.xml, …
I must create some more folder there ?

Re: custom jsp and deploymet

No, the Ant script should create all the folders it needs.

Maybe you could post the output from the Ant script so i can see if there's anything obviously wrong.

You could also try running ant with the "-verbose" option.

Hi Gavin thanks for your help. A last question? I want to manipulate the code of jboss portal (into alfresco-community-jboss-1.3.0RC2) to be able to obtain user of jboss and to use it for login by defect in Alfresco, could I do this?????.

Thanks again.

vpoorboy,

Have you compiled the CustomLogin sample via Eclipse first? If you run the Ant script before opening the project you will get this behaviour.

Haydee,

Yes, I believe this is theoretically possible.

Ummmm.
How the Alfresco Portal is loaded when this option is chosen within Jboss Portal???

Re: custom jsp and deploymet

Haydee,

What I meant by theoretically possible is that it could be done with custom code, our portlet does not support logging in using the JBoss user out of the box.
