Downloaded from https://code.google.com/p/share-extras/downloads/list

I got to that url through the Alfresco addons site: http://addons.alfresco.com/addons/twitter-dashlets

OK, I'll give Will a nudge to take a look at this when he has some time as he looks after the Share Extras site,

Ok, thanks Dave.

Just to let you, I have been tinkering around with this and if I put them in:

C:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\share\WEB-INF\lib

they now show up in the site control panel.

This is not the correct solution because they reference external JS scripts that can’t be loaded, thus some functionality is non operative.

Hi, this is not specific to Share Extras but a couple of other people have reported similar issues to me recently.

I suspect that the installers have stopped enabling the shared/lib directory in 4.2. Please check your tomcat/conf/catalina.properties file and you should have a line like

shared.loader=${catalina.home}/shared/classes,${catalina.home}/shared/lib/*.jar

If you do not have this line please add it, then the JAR files should be picked up when you restart. You will want to comment out any other lines in the file where this property is set.

Cheers,
Will
