Cannot find PermissionDefinitions.xml

[venkatraman_r]

Hello,
I installed Alfresco community edition 5 and I am unable to find sitePermissionDefinitions.xml file in any of the installation folders. I am trying to create some Custom Role.

Is there any other file or location that I need to verify in this new version?

Thanks for the assistance.

Regards,
Venkat R.

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 …

Cannot find sitePermissionDefinitions.xml in alfresco-repository-5.0.a.jar.
Need help. I want to remove all permissions except view document for one role or to create a role whom can only view document using Alfresco community 5.0a
Thanks

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.
