Web content wizard does not appears. help !

[fgruyer]

I uinstalled a clean alfresco 2.0, then installed WCM 2.0.
Everything is of at this stage.
I then started to follow WCM Eval Guide 2.0.

When I arrive at creating content stage, the web content wizard at step 2 "author web content" does not show any editing capability ! the screen as shown in page 33 of the guide never shows up.

Screen says:

STEP 2 author web content
Enter your document content into the repository

To continue press next.

there is no editing control on the company profile template???only 2 blank lines.


I fowwolwed twice the whole process, everything works as described except at this stage. Installation went well. what is missing ????

[arielb]

can you check your log files for any error message please?  there are previous posts as to how to boost the log level for the wcm client code you can refer to.

[fgruyer]

No specific error logged. If I complete wizard nevertheless , an empty XML file for "company profile" is created, but following error is logged:

11:54:31,520 WARN  [alfresco.missingProperties] Failed to find property 'wcmwf:label' for node: workspace://SpacesStore/e589bb6a-cb07-11db-bdfa-fd60dd57f710

?

additional information: if I change from french langage to English at login time, I encounter same proflem reported by "smg" titled "WCM example crash with Null Pointer Exeption", and same NPE when forms are unfolded in sandbox at creation content time in WCM eval Guide.

I got the same problem.

It seems that a french translation is breaking the javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
djConfig = {isDebug:false};
var alfresco_xforms_constants = {};
alfresco_xforms_constants.WEBAPP_CONTEXT = '/alfresco';
alfresco_xforms_constants.XFORMS_UI_DIV_ID = 'alfresco-xforms-ui';
alfresco_xforms_constants.XFORMS_NS = 'http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms';
alfresco_xforms_constants.XFORMS_PREFIX = 'xf';
alfresco_xforms_constants.XHTML_NS = 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml';
alfresco_xforms_constants.XHTML_PREFIX = 'xhtml';
alfresco_xforms_constants.CHIBA_NS = 'http://chiba.sourceforge.net/xforms';
alfresco_xforms_constants.CHIBA_PREFIX = 'chiba';
alfresco_xforms_constants.ALFRESCO_NS = 'http://www.alfresco.org';
alfresco_xforms_constants.ALFRESCO_PREFIX = 'alf';
alfresco_xforms_constants.resources = {
validation_provide_values_for_required_fields: 'Please provide values for all required fields',
idle: 'Idle',
loading: 'Loading',
add_content: 'Ajouter un contenu',
go_up: 'Remonter',
cancel: 'Annuler',
upload: 'Importer dans l'Entrepot',
path: 'Chemin'
};
</script>


But when I try to  switch to English, NullPointerException occurs when expanding Web Forms :

Well pointed !

The French language pack is under investigation
I can confirm some javascript parts are broken (Mostly in WCM module).

Stay tuned !
