Note that, by default, an ACP import will not update existing nodes. You'll have to delete any scripts that are in your ACP that also exist in the folder you are importing into.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Jeff</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 May 2012 12:50:49 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/where-to-place-repository-scripts-on-the-file-system/m-p/273347#M226477 jpotts 2012-05-16T12:50:49Z Re: Where to place Repository Scripts on the file system https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/where-to-place-repository-scripts-on-the-file-system/m-p/273348#M226478 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>*sigh*&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks Jeff.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 18 May 2012 11:48:49 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/where-to-place-repository-scripts-on-the-file-system/m-p/273348#M226478 vamirr 2012-05-18T11:48:49Z
