creating files using CSSDK

Bowker

CSSDK 2.5
Windows 2003
Teamsite 6.5

I'm trying to create a file in the TemplateData directory using CSSDK and keep receiving "the user is not authorized to perform this operation". This doesn't make sense since I created all the files/folders/workareas/... and I connected as MASTER.

If I use the TeamSite GUI I can create the file just fine. The code looks something like this:

String filename = "TemplateData/content/" + files + "/data/" + getNewFileName(job.getTaskId()) + ".xml";
CSWorkarea workarea = (CSWorkarea) job.getTask().getArea();
CSAreaRelativePath newFile = new CSAreaRelativePath(filename);
System.out.print("workarea: " + workarea.getVPath());
System.out.print("trying to create: " + newFile);
return workarea.createSimpleFile(newFile).getOutputStream(true);

The output is:
workarea: //ILC2CHA/contentManagement/main/content/WORKAREA/development
trying to create: TemplateData/content/promotion/learnmore/data/1107547216755_754.xml

What I find 'interesting' is that the workarea is //ILC2CHA/contentManagement... I would have expected it to be
//ILC2CHA/iwserver/contentManagement...

Any clue why I'm getting "not authorized..."?

Are you running this code from within teamsite UI, or is it an external app?

In reply to:

I would have expected it to be
//ILC2CHA/iwserver/contentManagement...

What does iwserver mean and why do you expect it?

TemplateData - is that the right case?.. does the whole path actually exist?

This is an external Java application using CSSDK.

The share for the filespec is //ilch2cha/iwserver/

and yes the path does exist. I can create the file manually from within the TS GUI while signed in as an Author.

If this is an external app, can you explain how you are authenticating?
can you dump out what the credentials are so that you can confirm they are the same as the user you mention when using the TeamSite GUI

/iwserver seems to indicate you are talking about a solaris file path, CS uses only TeamSite vpaths - file paths don't make sense in the CS context.

Can you confirm that the case is right?
TemplateData usually looks like templatedata

The VPath that I'm using is coming from "getVPath" from a workflow. I expect that I'm receiving a valid vpath back.

This is a windows environment.
Yes the case is correct on the TemplateData (and the case of this file dates back to TS 4.0 days)

This external app is a CSSDK application that is authenticating with:
csFactory.getClientForTrustedUser( username, "master", Locale.getDefault(), application, null );
wher username is my username.

Sorry, looks like I've asked all that I can think of.

Maybe you could post the stack trace if there is one.
