I tred to change the apperience of the starting dialog of my first workflow by editing the web-client-config-custom.xml in \tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension:<config evaluator="node-type" condition="wf:submitUrlaubsantragTask" replace="true"> <property-sheet> <separator n

Your configuration looks correct to me, so the most likely cause of this is that the web-client-config-custom.xml file is not getting picked up for some reason.

This can happen if you have another web-client-config-custom.xml already in the classpath i.e. the one in tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension is getting ignored.

Although a little verbose you can try turning on debugging for the config service and check whether the file is being loaded. Look for a line in the debug that says:

Retrieving input stream for source: classpath:alfresco/extension/web-client-config-custom.xml‍

You should then see later in the debug a mention of your condition i.e. wf:submitUrlaubsantragTask

If you see something like:

08:37:18,031 DEBUG [org.alfresco.config.source.ClassPathConfigSource] Failed to obtain input stream to classpath: alfresco/extension/web-client-config-custom.xml‍

you know your file has not been found.

Thank you for your fast reply, but i found my mistake…

Naming the workflow-model as wf:workflowmodel , which has allready been defined by the build-in examples as probably not the best idea

I changed the namespace to mywf and everything works fine
