change to shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml does not do anything

[eltorio]

Hi,
I'm new to Alfresco, I've installed Alfresco Community 4.2c on linux under Tomcat7
I changed tomcat/conf/catalina.properties for having shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar
When I change aspect visibility in ${catalina.base}/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml with:

      <aspects>
         <!– Aspects that a user can see –>
         <visible>
        <!–    
            <aspect name="cm:generalclassifiable" />
            <aspect name="cm:complianceable" />
            <aspect name="cm:dublincore" />
            <aspect name="cm:effectivity" />
            <aspect name="cm:summarizable" />
            <aspect name="cm:versionable" />
            <aspect name="cm:templatable" />
            <aspect name="cm:emailed" />
–>
            <aspect name="emailserver:aliasable" />
            <aspect name="cm:taggable" />
            <aspect name="app:inlineeditable" />
            <aspect name="gd:googleEditable" />
            <aspect name="cm:geographic" />
            <aspect name="exif:exif" />
         </visible>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I still have all the aspect in the share UI, in fact my real problem is that I cannot add my custom test aspect <aspect name="customocumentComptable" /> developped with the 2 ex sample files:
${catalina.base}/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-model-context.xml
${catalina.base}/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/customModel.xml

for testing if my new xml files are read I made a intentional mistake in the xml doc, and it works I got an error on tomcat starting.
I also force adding ${catalina.base}/shared/classes in tomcat classpath by adding a setenv.sh,
my classpass reported by tomcat is

Using CATALINA_BASE:   /java/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /java/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /java/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /java/jdk1.7.0_11/jre
Using CLASSPATH:       /java/tomcat/shared/classes/:/java/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/java/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

wich is correct for my installation

Thanks everyone for your help

I've tried under tomcat 6.0.37 with same result. I'm probably make a big obvious mistake but I'm a real newbie!

[sujaypillai]

I just tried by adding a new aspect (<aspect name="zpe:docLoggable"/>) with 3 other already existing aspects as under in

   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary">
         <aspects>
          <!–
            Aspects that a user can see in UI.
            Used by Rules, aspects are the listed aspects for rule's "has-aspect" action condition.
          –>
          <visible>
            <aspect name="cm:generalclassifiable" />
            <aspect name="cm:complianceable" />
            <aspect name="cm:dublincore" />
            <aspect name="zpe:docLoggable"/>
          </visible>
       </aspects>
   </config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and here is the result in attached image -

[eltorio]

I tried like sujaypillai without any success I still have no change at all

   <!– Document Library config section –>
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary" replace="true">

      <aspects>
         <!– Aspects that a user can see –>
         <visible>
            <aspect name="custom:DocumentComptable" />
         </visible>
      </aspects>
   </config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and all the original aspects are shown but not my custom one

[mitpatoliya]

try after removing replace="true" attribute from your config tag.

[rjohnson]

First be sure you have the evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary" set in your config section for your aspects and I urge you not to have replace="true"

Make sure that you have empty <addable></addable> and <removable></removeable> tags in the config sections.

Make sure that your aspect definition has been included. You would put the aspect deinition in the "extension" directory in a file called {your-extension-name}-model.xml and you must tell Alfresco to include it in a file called {your-extension-context-name}-model-context.xml. I often forget to add the new model files to the model-context.xml!

If you have done all that it should work. It does for me.

[eltorio]

It still does not work,
Thank you for your help,
this is my config file it is located at
/java/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml
CATALINA_HOME=/java/tomcat
tomcat is 7.0.34
jre is 1.7.0.11
in catalina.properties I change
shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar

Except catalina.properties for the shared class loader that is all I modified

[rjohnson]

This looks OK. One of my original comments did not come out because I forgot code tags. Could you try

   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary" >

 

      <aspects>

         <!– Aspects that a user can see –>

         <visible>

            <aspect name="custom:DocumentComptable" />

         </visible>
         <!– Aspects that a user can add. Same as "visible" if left empty –>
         <addable>
         </addable>
         <!– Aspects that a user can remove. Same as "visible" if left empty –>
         <removeable>
         </removeable>
      </aspects>

   </config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This should be unnecessary.

Have you checked Alfresco.log and Share.log for errors?

[eltorio]

Thank you rjonhson for all the time you spend for helping me.
I tried your code (in fact just adding empty addable and removeable tags isn't it?)
This is my tomcat log, my alfresco log and my share log I'm new to alfresco and my eyes did not seen any bad line.
