bpm:groupAssignee gives none in Alfresco 2.0

[seshu]

I created some groups, added users to groups and configured group in web-client but when i search on UI, i am getting none. Am i missing something?

[davidc]

How are you performing the search? From which UI?

[seshu]

Yes David. I am performing search from Alfresco UI

[davidc]

Groups are not returned in the web client search.  They are returned if you search in the 'groups' section of the admin console.

The are also searchable, if you define a property sheet that includes an association to a group.   Workflow dialogs can provide this capability.

Thanks for your quick response. Sorry if i make you confused

By Alfresco UI i mean from worlflow options jsp. i configured web client and model to get group using bpm:groupAssignee association. It is displaying fine but when i search for groups i am not getting groups. The select box it has is empty. hope this clears confusion

[davidc]

Ok, understand.

I've just tried this with the latest 2.0 in SVN (HEAD is very similar in this area) and it worked fine.

Could you try the sample group process definitions?  If you remove .sample from /alfresco/extension/workflow-context.xml.sample and restart, you'll have several new processes you can choose from.  Two of them are group based and allow you to search for a group.

Thanks David

At first attempt i failed to get groups because of the war file i had. I got latest source code from svn and created war and then deployed. Now i am getting groups, i will proceed furthur and see.
