Hi,

I am trying to package my dashlet in an AMP package. The dashlet consists in
- a jsp page located in tomcat/webapps/alfresco/jsp/dashboards/dashlets/MyDashlet.jsp
- a template freemarker stored in the data dictionnary
- this code added to web-client-config-custom.xml :

 <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Dashboards">
     <dashboards>
        <dashlets>
           <dashlet id="MyDashlet" label="My dashlet" description="My dashlet"
                 jsp="/jsp/dashboards/dashlets/MyDashlet.jsp" />
        </dashlets>
     </dashboards>
  </config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

That works, I can add my custom dashlet to "My Alfresco".

I then tried to create a module (AMP) to package my dashlet and others next customizations properly. I red the documentation and created my module that contains the following :
- config
– alfresco/module/alfrescoISFB
— module-context.xml :

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>
 
<beans>
   <import resource="classpath:alfresco/module/alfrescoISFB/web-client-config-custom.xml" />
</beans>‍‍‍‍‍‍

— web-client-config-custom.xml :

<alfresco-config>
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Dashboards">
      <dashboards>
         <dashlets>
            <dashlet id="MyDashlet" label="My dashlet" description="My dashlet"
                  jsp="/jsp/MyDashlet.jsp" />
         </dashlets>
      </dashboards>
   </config>
</alfresco-config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

- lib
– alfrescoISFB.jar
— META-INF/MANIFEST.****
- web
– css
– images
– jsp
— MyDashlet.jsp
– scripts
- file-mapping.properties :

/WEB-INF=/WEB-INF‍

- module.properties :

module.id=alfrescoISFB
module.title=Personnalisations d'Alfresco pour le projet
module.description=Personnalisations d'Alfresco pour le projet
module.version=1.0
module.repo.version.min=2.1‍‍‍‍‍

I installed the module :

java -jar bin/alfresco-mmt.jar install alfrescoISFB.amp alfresco.war -verbose‍

I started Alfresco. When I connect with a user who has added MyDashlet to his "My Alfresco", I get the following error :14:15:17,140 User:jppicsou WARN  [bean.dashboard.DashboardManager] Failed to resolve Dashboard Dashlet Definition ID: MyDashlet

Could you help me to debug this ?

Best regards

You don't need to import web-client-config-custom.xml. It is automatically picked up during start up as long as it is on the classpath. In an AMP you can put it in config/alfresco/extension. it should get copied into WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/extension/.

You can remove the import statement from module-context.xml.
