// form.setPassword(password);
// form.setConfirm(password);

NewUserWizard newuserobject=new NewUserWizard();

/** AuthenticationService bean reference */
AuthenticationService authenticationService = null;
AuthenticationService authenticationServicenew = null;

/** NodeService bean reference */
NodeService nodeService = null;

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
nodeService = Repository.getServiceRegistry(context).getNodeService();


WebApplicationContext ctx = WebApplicationContextUtils.getRequiredWebApplicationContext(application);
ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry = (ServiceRegistry) ctx.getBean(ServiceRegistry.SERVICE_REGISTRY);

// get individual, required services


UserTransaction tx ;
//nodeService = (NodeService)serviceRegistry.getNodeService();
tx = serviceRegistry.getTransactionService().getUserTransaction();
tx.begin();

authenticationService=(AuthenticationService)ctx.getBean("authenticationService");
PersonService personService = (PersonService)ctx.getBean("personService");



try {

//logout first
//FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();

// invalidate User ticket
User user = (User)session.getValue(AuthenticationHelper.AUTHENTICATION_USER);
if (user != null)
{
authenticationService.invalidateTicket(user.getTicket());

Enumeration em= session.getAttributeNames();
while(em.hasMoreElements()) {
String name=(String)em.nextElement();
session.removeAttribute(name);

//nothing but workspace guid


homeSpaceId ="de61ef7a-0ab9-11dc-a5ea-7b72135c349f";




// set the current user workspace

user.setHomeSpaceId(homeSpaceId);



//inintialize the authentication session

session.putValue(AuthenticationHelper.AUTHENTICATION_USER, user);

//get the noderep object form Noderef bean

NodeRef homeSpaceRef = new NodeRef(Repository.getStoreRef(), homeSpaceId);

String homeSpaceName = Repository.getNameForNode((NodeService)serviceRegistry.getNodeService(), homeSpaceRef);

authenticationServicenew=(AuthenticationService)ctx.getBean("authenticationService");

authenticationServicenew.createAuthentication(username,password.toCharArray());
System.out.println("after creating user " );





PermissionService permissionService = (PermissionService) ctx.getBean("permissionService");

Hi,

You can not create user with admin Role. But you can do it in xml config  file.

Here is an example

<property name="adminUsers">
            <set>
             <value>admin</value>
             <value>administrator</value>
             <value>cdadmin</value>
          </set>
        </property>

Hi,

We want to create a new role "group administrator" giving members of this role the possibility to manage groups without managing users (create/delete)

We would only sync our users from the LDAP and keep the groupmanagement as a delegated admin in Alfresco.

Can this be done ? Are there better ways to achieve this ?

We would also like to synchronise "user-title" from our LDAP. And then we would like to create groups based on title (ex. staffmember) How can we do this ?

thx
