Problem with using custom content models

[brellou94]

I am currently trying to configure alfresco with a custom content model, following the tutorial of Jeff Potts.  This document is a gold mine but I have a problem whan I start Alfresco. I copy the log file and the xml file here. I hope somebody will can help me. Sorry for my english but I am french and the french forum is broken. Thanks

My someco-model-context.xml file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>

<beans>
   <!Registration of new models >
   <bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" dependson="dictionaryBootstrap">
      <property name="models">
         <list>
            <value>alfresco/extension/scModel.xml</value>
         </list>
      </property>
   </bean>
</beans>


My alfresco.log file :

[mikef]

There appears to be missing markup in someco-model-context.xml. It is correct, or is the fourm doing something weird when it displays it?

i.e.
<!Registration of new models >
should be
<!– Registration of new models –>

and

<bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" dependson="dictionaryBootstrap">
should be
<bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" depends-on="dictionaryBootstrap">

Thank you, I will do new tests this night with these changes.

Like mikef said before, you have a lot of <!­­ Definition of new Model ­­>  that should be <!–­­ Definition of new Model ­­–>
