From Alfresco Community Edition 5.0.a all the releases will be build using Maven and thus all the dependencies would be found in respective jars. You may find sitePermissionDefinitions.xml in alfresco-repository-5.0.a.jar

I saw that the file moved there. The question is now: Whats the way to overwrite this?
Till now I used those JAR extensions to overwrite the files with my content. But my added roles do not appear on Alfresco Share as it did in the past releases …

I found sitePermissionDefinitions.xml in alfresco-repository-5.0.jar. I copied it to /opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension and made the required changes to it. But it hasn't overridden the default, nothing has changed. Am I missing a step? Do I need to create a module to overwrite it?

Hi Mark,

Did you find the answer you were looking for? I'm currently trying to figure that out myself.
