Recent Activities Email Frequency

Hello, I am running a fresh copy of Alfresco 5.0.d (Community Edition) on ubuntu server with no modifications.

I would like to increase the frequency of the recent activities email to every 60 minutes.
I have read through a lot of documentation, but can't seem to find an exact answer on how to do this.

So far I have tried adding the following to my alfresco-global.properties file:


activities.feed.notifier.enabled=true
activities.feed.notifier.repeatIntervalMins=60

These lines did not exist by default in the file, but they do not seem to have any affect on the behavior (yes I restarted the server after making these changes)

emails still are only being sent out at midnight, and not a second before.

Is there maybe some sort of cron job that needs to be adjusted or a different configuration file?

right file and approach but think you need to set activities.feed.notifier.cronExpression=0 0 * * * *

Thanks for this. I'll try it as well, because I wanted to change the time of the notification.

Hi there,

I just wanted to follow up on this.
I did try this modification and I wanted to setup the norifier to come at a different hours. For example at 12PM at noon.
I added to global.property file those lines:
activities.feed.notifier.startDelayMins=${system.cronJob.startDelayMinutes}
activities.feed.notifier.cronExpression=0 0 12 * * ?
activities.feed.notifier.enabled=true

I took them from here:
https://github.com/Alfresco/community-edition/blob/master/projects/repository/config/alfresco/subsys...

Thanks for the notes! They did help me!

Regards!
