Creating a new permission in a repo amp

[logxjb]

Hello,

Following this tutorial: http://ecmarchitect.com/alfresco-developer-series-tutorials/content/tutorial/tutorial.html#implement...

I wanted to create a new permission.

In the model directory, I've made a duplicate of the original permissionDefinitions.xml file and added my new permission

<blockcode>
<permissionSet type="cm:cmobject" expose="selected">
    ….
    <permissionGroup name="SpecialContributor" allowFullControl="false" expose="true" >
        <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Collaborator" type="cm:cmobject" />
    </permissionGroup
</permissionSet>
</blockcode>

In the context directory, I've put the following in the service-context.xml file

<blockcode>
<beans>
   <bean id="${project.artifactId}_extendPermissionModel" parent="permissionModelBootstrap">
       <property name="models">
           <list>
               <value>alfresco/module/${project.artifactId}/model/permissionDefinitions.xml</value>
           </list>
       </property>
   </bean>
</beans>
</blockcode>

Anyway after applying the amp and restarting the server, I'm unable to login on Alfresco.

catalina.out says:

<blockcode>
Mar 31, 2014 1:42:08 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start

   at org.quartz.core.JobRunShell.run(JobRunShell.java:216)
   at org.quartz.simpl.SimpleThreadPool$WorkerThread.run(SimpleThreadPool.java:563)
</blockcode>

If I uninstall the amp, everything goes fine.

Thanks for any help,

I guess after you modfied existing model, when solr try to get model difference from alfresco , alfresco cann't deal with it correctly
you can check alfresco log to see if there are any errors.
If you just  replacing the default permission model and your permission model is legal.I think it's a bug.

Anyway I suggest you to extend the existing model instead of replace the default permission model.
you can extend the existing model using  following code snippet

<bean id="extendPermissionModel" parent="permissionModelBootstrap">
   <property name="model" value="alfresco/extension/permissionModelExtension.xml" /> 
</bean>

Hello,

Thanks for your answer. If I put a permissionDefinitions.xml file in the "alfresco/extension/model" directory and create the bean file in extension directory, then everything works fine.

But if I do that, I'm totally outside my Maven AMP repo project. I may live with that, but hopped it could be possible to create new permissions inside a repo AMP module.

Jérémy
