Bryan, all looks ok. I looked into the nifi-home/work/docs folder. There is nothing but a components folder. Inside there is a folder for my processor: com.datamelt.nifi.test.TemplateProcessor and inside the folder there is a file index.html and it contains the code of my additionalDetails.html file.
when I open the file in the web browser it looks good. I looked at other index.html files and they look similar. but I noted that some folders have an inde.html file AND an additionalDetails.html file. maybe that is the problem? greetings, Uwe Gesendet: Freitag, 18.

Similar to this: https://github.com/apache/nifi/tree/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-solr-bundle/nifi-solr-processors/src/main/resources The expected project structure is described here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Maven+Projects+for+Extensions#MavenProjectsforExtensions-ExampleProcessorBundleStructure[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Maven+Projects+for+Extensions#MavenProjectsforExtensions-ExampleProcessorBundleStructure] If you think that part is setup correctly, can you check under nifi_home/work/docs and see if com.datamelt.nifi.test.TemplateProcessor is there? -Bryan On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 11:04 AM, Uwe Geercken <uwe.geerc...@web.de> wrote: > > Hello, > > I am writing my first processor.
