Export/import a space and its rules

lyth_o

Hello everyone,

I'm new to Alfresco and I would like to export a space containing rules only. The export is done correctly and I can import the .acp after. The space and the rules are loaded but clicking on a rule displays an error message :

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: nodeRef is a mandatory parameter

Thus it seems that the rules are corrupted.

The action of the rules I'm trying to import is "link to a category". The categories used were created within the alfresco explorer, using the "create category" tool. My first idea is that during the import, the imported rules do not find these categories. Does it make sense ?

Would you know what could be the problem ?

I have read a few posts about the same kind of issue but I didn't find an appropriate answer yet.

Yes that should be the case I guess.
Ideally whatever the setup required for the rule like custom script or any category like your case needs to be created explicitly on the new instance.

I do not understand then what's happening during the import of the rules. Why would not the rule understand the link to a category? The category hasn't moved or anything… If I say to a rule "link to category at this path" and the path does not change, why wouldn't an imported rule understand the path ?

If I have to create explicitely all these rules, then exporting and importing is useless for me. And it's infeasible to create all rules manually every time we want to deploy our application to production.

Isn't there a way by modifying some xml files for instance ?

lyth_o

For the ones who have the same problem, the answer may be the following :

Check the xml given by the export (unzip the .acp). Check noderef. If you have directly /cm:generalclassifiable/… , try putting /cm:categoryRoot before it. It solved my problem !

However, I would like to know why the export doesnt put the right path in the xml. Some ideas ?
