location of web-client-custom,xml

[hagitok1]

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out the web-client-custom.xml issue.

Is it necessary to include web-client-custom.xml  file within a jar file of a custom dialog, if so where (in META-INF or exension folders)?

Can anyone explain why we cannot add all extentions to the web-client in tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension ?

How do I configure the web-client-custom.xml  in case that I would like to add multiple dialogs ?

I was trying some of the above options and each gave me other results, I'm really confused and would like to know what is the right way to go

Are you referring to "web-client-config-custom.xml" file? If so, that file should exist or be placed in "alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension" folder. Regarding your other questions you should provide more information, what are you trying to do.

Thank you,

After a lot of trial and error I came to the conclusion that the only place to put the web-client-config-custom is in alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension exactly as you wrote.
The thing that misled me before, is the instructions in http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Packaging_And_Deploying_Extensions that shows the required structure of the jar file as follows:

> custom-dialog.jar
          > alfresco
            > extension
               > web-client-config-custom.xml       
            > META-INF
            > faces-config.xml
            > MANIFEST.MF
         > org  
            > alfresco
               > sample
                  > AddAspectDialog.class
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

     
From that I concluded that there must be a web-client-config-custom.xml within the jar file of the custom dialog and this had not worked properly in case of few jar files each with another custom dialog
