Hi,

I overridden the calendar create event webscript in my all in one project. When i go to http://localhost:8081/alfresco/s/index I can see the calendar/create webscript. When i go to details it shows me both the webscripts (mine and OOTB).

Custom at Store: classpath:alfresco/extension/templates/webscripts

OITB at Store: classpath:alfresco/templates/webscripts

However, whenever I create a new event, it always calls the OOTB webscript only. I've created the java controller at the same path as OOTB (org.alfresco.repo.web.scripts.calendar.CalendarEntryPost), but my custom java controller is never getting called.

Webscript location:

POST /alfresco/s/calendar/create

Below is my project structure and the webscript entry in the webscript-context.xml.

Thank you

Which Alfresco version are you using? Since Alfresco has decoupled the Repository and Share, some Repository-tier components required to run Share are shipped as a module (Alfresco Share Services). Between modules, there is no guaranteed order in which Spring configuration files are loaded, so it may very likely be that the bean in your module is actually being overriden by the bean from the Share Services module. Generally, it is very bad style to try to override Spring beans within modules - that is what the extension path is for. Put the Spring context file in alfresco/extension/ and your override will likely work right off the bat.
