Hello.

Can you share a bit more of your code in order to help us understand the problem you are facing?

How are you configuring your bootstrap? The XML would also be useful here.

You can a sample project using the site bootstrap here GitHub - rouxemmanuel/SiteBootstrapAlfresco: Enable site bootstrap in Alfresco not only on Alfresco install or upgrade

Hi Douglas,

I know this approach, but I prefer to use Java to avoid to have to export the site when I change it, and to have more control on the creation of the site.

These are my bootstrap-context.xml and the associated Java class.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

,          workflow, and loading custom content models.  -->

    </bean></beans>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

package test.demoamp;

import org.alfresco.repo.admin.patch.AbstractPatch;
import org.alfresco.service.cmr.site.SiteInfo;
import org.alfresco.service.cmr.site.SiteService;
import org.alfresco.service.cmr.site.SiteVisibility;

public class SiteCreationPatch extends AbstractPatch {
     private SiteService siteService;

     public void setSiteService(SiteService siteService) {
          this.siteService = siteService;
     }

     public void createSite() {
          SiteInfo siteInfo = siteService.createSite("site-dashboard", "my-site", "My test site", "This is a test site",
                    SiteVisibility.PRIVATE);
     }

     protected String applyInternal() throws Exception {
          createSite();

          return "SiteCreationPatch success";
     }

}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks in advance for you help

I guess the problem is happening because you are not setting an authentication context in your code.

You can see how the addon I shared before does that by looking at the source code here SiteBootstrapAlfresco/SiteLoadBootstrap.java at master · rouxemmanuel/SiteBootstrapAlfresco · GitHub

Notice the run as admin part.
