Hi,
Please note that the com.sun.faces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl has
nothing to do with Nuxeo lifecycles. They are JSF lifecycle, and the
message is an error due to the current implementation of JSF and Seam
and Trinidad (and nothing we really can do anything about in the
short term).

I'm using the newly-released (and very nice it is too!) v5.1-M3
installer (http://www.nuxeo.org/static/NuxeoEP/nuxeo-ep-5.1.0.M2-

document type.
Our new document type works in the UI, and I can successfully
create a new document with it. However, no matter what I try, I
can't seem to get the 'workflow' tab to appear on it in the Nuxeo
workbench screen.
I've stumbled across the NXCore documentation (that I can see is
replicated in the nuxeo book here: http://doc.nuxeo.org/1.0-
SNAPSHOT/reference/html-single/nuxeo-book.html#nuxeo-core-reference).
This suggests that I define the life cycle I want the new document
type to follow by defining the
'org.nuxeo.ecm.core.lifecycle.LifeCycleService' extension point for
our data type. I've taken the 'lifecycle-contrib.xml' from the
sample project, and modified this for our data type.
Changing the type in this xml file from 'Sample' to my custom data
type 'Policy' and deploying into Jboss/Nuxeo now gives me this
error when I create a new document of our custom data type:

The 'lifecycle-contrib.xml' file in the sample project we're using
looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<extension target="org.nuxeo.ecm.core.lifecycle.LifeCycleService"
point="types">

<type name="Policy">policy</type>
</types>
</extension>
</component>
I have also tried simply using:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<component name="org.nuxeo.project.sample.lifecycle">
<extension target="org.nuxeo.ecm.core.lifecycle.LifeCycleService"
point="types">
<types>
<type name="Policy">default</type>
</types>
</extension>
</component>
and defining the type 'Policy' to use the 'default' life cycle
definition, but this simply does nothing (not even the SEAM
exception above).
Where I'm going wrong? Should I be looking at 'nxworkflow-document-
rules-contrib.xml' as previously mentioned, or is this
'org.nuxeo.ecm.core.lifecycle.LifeCycleService' the right place to
be enabling workflow for this new data type?

Hi Craig,

We've created a new document type in Nuxeo and, with some
excellent help
from the people on this list, are now able to create new
documents in
this new document type.
Our next mission with Nuxeo is to try and workflow these
documents using
Nuxeo's excellent workflow facilities. We know they're
excellent, as we
can create a 'Note' document (one of the default types) and put
that
through a workflow process.
How would we go about enabling workflow for the new document
type we've
just created?
Unfortunately, as far as we can see, we don't have much in the
way of
documentation to help us understand how to enable workflow on our
document type. The closest seems to be this:
http://public.dev.nuxeo.com/~ogrisel/nuxeo-book/workflow-
service.html
After some random looking through the code base, we have found a
'nxworkflow-document-rules-contrib.xml' in the
platform/nuxeo-platform-webapp-core project that seems to be
where the
'Note' document type's workflow is defined.
We've created a local copy of this in our sample project and
removed all
but one of the doc type declarations, substituting the last one
for our
document type. Needless to say this didn't work.
Did you think about referencing your new xml descriptor that
contains
the workflow rules in the MANIFEST.MF of your bundle ?
As well, if you did a copy paste of an existing workflow rule did
you
think about changing the component name (name="") in the xml
descriptor ?
Do not hesitate if you got more questions.
Cheers,
J.
Hi there. Yes, I had guessed I had to do these things. We've
created a 'nxworkflow-document-rules-contrib.xml' file in the OSGI-
INF folder in the sample project, and have added a reference to
this in the MANIFEST.MF:
nxworkflow-document-rules-contrib.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<component name="com.policymatter.workflow.nuxeo.workflowdocrules">
<documentation>
</documentation>
<require>org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.workflow.document.service.WorkflowRul
esService</require>
<extension
target="org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.workflow.document.service.WorkflowRule
sService" point="docTypeRule">

<docTypeRule docType="Policy">

workflowDefinition>
<workflowDefinition>document_review_serial</
workflowDefinition>
<workflowDefinition>document_review_approbation</
workflowDefinition>
</docTypeRule>
</extension>
</component>
MANIFEST.MF:

Bundle-ManifestVersion: 1
Bundle-Name: Nuxeo Sample project
Bundle-SymbolicName: org.nuxeo.project.sample;singleton:=true
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
Bundle-Vendor: Nuxeo
Provide-Package: org.nuxeo.project.sample
Require-Bundle: org.nuxeo.runtime,
org.nuxeo.ecm.core.api,
org.nuxeo.ecm.core,
org.nuxeo.ecm.webapp.core,
Nuxeo-Component: OSGI-INF/core-types-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/ecm-types-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/lifecycle-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/event-listener-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/directories-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/nxworkflow-document-rules-contrib.xml,
OSGI-INF/theme-contrib.xml
Doing this was just pure guesswork on my part, as I have no idea
what is required to enable workflow for this new document type.
Therefore, there are probably other areas of Nuxeo that need to be
told that we're now wanting to workflow this new document type.
However, I can't seem to find any documentation on what is
required to make this happen.
Interestingly, I do get this exception when I create a new
document with our new document type:
org.nuxeo.ecm.core.api.ClientException: Unable to get allowed
state transitions for document : 589f7a33-f6a1-4e2e-8aaa-536bcebb8d79
at
org.nuxeo.ecm.core.api.AbstractSession.getAllowedStateTransitions
(AbstractSession.java:1839)
...and:
10:29:44,201 INFO [LifeCycleServiceImpl] No life cycle associate
to document type : ComplexType: Policy; []
10:29:44,201 INFO [LifeCycleServiceImpl] No life cycle manager
found for document type = ComplexType: Policy; [] check out your
configuration.
...which suggests to me that there is somewhere else that I need
to define a 'life cycle manager' to handle this new document type.
Is this documented anywhere and, if not, can someone suggest a
list of config elements that I should look at and amend (over and
above the 'nxworkflow-document-rules-contrib.xml' file)?
Thanks for your help
