Custom Role creation crashes old sites.

avin_jss

Hi,

    I have Alfresco 3.2 setup on ubuntu mysql tomcat.

    I already had some sites on my setup and then I got requirement to create some custom roles for new sites that will be created.

   I followed following link to make custom role http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Custom_Permissions_in_Share

    But As u can see its given in the link that this procedure is only valid for fresh share site, so all my old sites are crashing and throwing the error "An Authority was not found for Group_site_xxx_customrole".

My requirement is to create custom roles so that they can be applied on new sites, and keeping old sites as they are.

    can anybody tell me how to make custom role so that old sites do not crash, OR suggest some changes in present error so that old sites start working.??

   here is error stack trace for debugging ……

Is thier anyway to save custom authority for a old site in database????

loftux

Hi,

Try this javascript. Save it in Data Dictionary, Scripts as fixPermission.js

var n=search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/bc93bd54-384e-413c-b085-dc9e0314d53f"); 
if(n!=null)
{
n.setPermission("SiteCustomManager", "GROUP_site_mysite_SiteCustomManager")
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

You have to replace the workspace://SpacesStore/bc93bd54-384e-413c-b085-dc9e0314d53f with the correct id for your space, that is the space id you can find in Alfresco Explorer. Navigate to Company Home/Sites/mysite and select View details. Right click on 'Alfresco Node Reference' and select 'Copy link location'.

Execute the script from any space in Alfresco explorer suing 'Run Action', execute script.

I have not tested this, so you may have to adopt a bit.

avin_jss

setting the permission is not following the problem, i think we create authority then add authority.
So can you please suggest a new javascript for that

avin_jss

Finally i got the solution and i will posted soon.It required backward compatibility in alfresco share.

djau

solution ?

oscgon

I have the same error, so I´d like to know how can I resolve this problem.

roseta

please, I have the same problem now, could you please be so kind and post the solution you got? THANKS!!! 😃

jperilla

I have this same problem. Any solution yet?

kszosze

At moment the best solution I had found to fix permissions in older share after create new roles is that

var allSites = siteService.listSites(null, null, 0);

//var logFile = companyhome.childByNamePath("log.txt");
//   if (logFile == null)
//   {
//      logFile = companyhome.createFile("log.txt");
//   }

for (var siteIndex = 0; siteIndex < allSites.length; siteIndex++) {
   createAuthorities(allSites[siteIndex].shortName, [CustomRole,CustomRole2], allSites[siteIndex].getNode());
}

function createAuthorities(siteName, rolesList, siteNode) {
   var siteExp = "site_" + siteName;
   var prefix = siteExp + "_";
   //var n=search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/"+siteId);

//logFile.content = "Site.id :"+siteNode.id+"\r\n";
//logFile.content += "Node :"+siteNode+"\r\n";
//logFile.save();
   var rootGroup = groups.getGroup(siteExp);
   for (var roleIndex = 0; roleIndex < rolesList.length; roleIndex++) {
      var groupName = prefix + rolesList[roleIndex];
      if (groups.getGroup(groupName) == null){
         rootGroup.createGroup(groupName,siteName+"_"+rolesList[roleIndex]);
      }
      if(siteNode!=null)
      {   
//logFile.content += "Group :GROUP_" + groupName+"\r\n";
//logFile.save();
         siteNode.setPermission(rolesList[roleIndex], "GROUP_" + groupName);
      }
   }
}

Where CustomRole and CustomRole2 are the role name we had created in sitePermissionDefinitions.xml. If you only want to fix the permissions, just only comment the createGroup lines.
There are a collateral effect that I don't know how to solve it. Alfresco have some zones where which contains the node groups linked to the roles. In fact in share that zone is APP.SHARE. The elements contained in that zone are invisible to user in UI, so usually we don't know what are storage in. When we create a group needed for new roles, it is created in a public zone so we will see a lot of groups named like roles in our Groups Management UI. The ideal aproach is make that groups in APP.SHARE zone but doing it in Javascript API I can't. I think I must use Java.

I hope this can help you and be a nice workaround.

Hi,
I tried the js script, but I get this error :

Failed the actions due to error: Failed to execute script 06270393 'workspace://SpacesStore/b3deffd0-e0e0-47f3-b210-05e4f9c2c131': 06270392 ReferenceError: "MyCustomCollaborator" is not defined (workspace://SpacesStore/b3deffd0-e0e0-47f3-b210-05e4f9c2c131#10)‍

Did someone solve this issue ?

Thanks

nadaoneal

We had a very similar issue for our site, but as far as we know, we didn't create any new custom roles; we just edited files like the workflowModel.xml, adhoc_processdefinition.xml, etc. We ended up getting the error for "GROUP_site_[sitename]_All" on all sites, which I think is an Alfresco default group.

kszosze's script worked for us, so I'm not sure what issue the other poster was having (though I note the same thing happened to a completely different person in this other thread). Did you remember to replace all instances of "CustomRole, CustomRole2" with your own value(s)?

tomen

In fact, I made a huge mistake, I replaced customeRole by SiteCustomManager instead of "SiteCustomManager" !

It works great.
