Why is the user search in Alfresco Community Edition admin tools not working ?

[Samrajya]

Hello guys, I am facing a search error in the admin tools of the Alfresco Community Edition. The user can be created and retrieved in the People tab but still can't be searched in  admin tool tab. I would appreciate a solution for this. Thanks

Hello there, I cloned the files from this github link: https://github.com/Alfresco/acs-deployment and used docker compose to to install it. this is the alfresco version: docker.io/alfresco/alfresco-content-repository-community:23.2.1

I also reviewed the thread that mentioned the solution but I don't know where to find or run these commands as I'm new to docker.

RUN sed -i 's@<show-authorization-status>true</show-authorization-status>@<show-authorization-status>false</show-authorization-status>@' \
	$TOMCAT_DIR/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/share-config.xml

Pay atantion to the Axel comment here:

https://github.com/Alfresco/acs-community-packaging/issues/367#issuecomment-853122824

As you could see there are two parameters must be changed. The `sad` command changes only one.

Do as Axel recommend, namely create additional file `share-config-custom-dev.xml` with new configuration and copy it into your custom docker image to the tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/ folder.

p.s. you can use https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-docker-installer to make your deployment. It includes this patch.
