Alfresco Sample site for the latest build

Good morning,Those of you on the latest build(s) of Alfresco wcm, have probably already discovered that the Alfresco sample website does not run correctly for press-releases, and company footer. The reason for this is that some of the AVM and JNDI libraries have moved around between releases. It i

if you are compiling from source, you should be able to recompile a functional sample website compatible with the latest build by doing:

ant -buildfile projects/web-client/project-build.xml sample-website‍

the war file will end up in projects/web-client/build/dist/

I notice that the "Import website content" feature described in the tutorial no longer exists in the current builds.

Has this been dropped or is there another way to use this functionality?

Never mind, figured it out! Guess I should wait until the official release (and the updated docs), but this is cool stuff…

Yes, it is AND isn't in the current build.

For everyone wondering, the Import Website Content has been deprecated and replaced for BETA and GA with a Bulk Import action. This action is available from the Actions menu within a user's sandbox. This allows users to upload any directory over time into their sandbox, see the list of unpacked files in the Modified Items list, preview, and then submit (which will create a workflow task for whatever workflow you have configured for non-form related assets).

The Bulk Import action supports unpacking of zip, tar, and WAR files. The WAR files specifically are to support our new capability of supporting multiple web apps. In the Preview, we supported the ROOT web app only … now, you have access to a Create Web App command within your sandbox, so that you can have a website that is composed of multiple web apps. You can switch context easily between web apps, import an existing web app to preview, and, of course preview via the Virtualization Server.

This is also expected to be used in combo with the File System Interface (new in the current build), which will allow your Web Developers and Application Developers to use DreamWeaver or Eclipse or any other tool to create and modify web assets.

Now, onto QA to get BETA out next week!

Hi,

Can you help me out with steps for downloading source code?

Is it necessary to install eclipse and SVN for the same?

Please reply me soon.

Thanks in advance
