Hi all,

I would like to update this issue.

The dialog now works. but I still do not understand what was the problem.

I startede from scratch, creating all the relevant files as described above, but at first a simpler version ofr the dialog with less fields. By that I found out that there where files "stuck" in tomcat\work\Catalina\localhost\alfresco\org\apache\jsp\jsp\extension - the files create_002dsc_002dpost_jsp.class and create_002dsc_002dpost_jsp.java - there were outcome of the original managed bean (with more fields). Once I deleted them the dialog appeared, I re-added all the fields and now the dialog is working.

Can anyone explain it ?

Another things. Once this dialog finally started working, I tried to add another dialog at the same manner (CreateScReseller) and here again I get the message : org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: 04090002 Failed to start dialog as managed bean 'CreateScResellerDialog' has not been defined

What am I missing ? Is there anyone that can give me some lead ?

Thenks

Did you define everything in web-client-custom.xml and packaged it within the jar file, copied the jar file to the right place. Put the .jsp in the right place ?

Hello

I'm sorry I don't see any problem, but I'm not such an expert. From my experience I had similiar problems when the jar was not packaged correctly, i.e the web-config-custom was not located correctly or was not consistent with the web-config.xml

hi, open your jar and see if class is in there I bet this is the problem.

What about thw XML files in the jar. Are they in the correct place ? Do they contain only data that is relevent to your dialog ?
