TS65SP1/Solaris8

Hi all,

I am migrating a win32 working functionality in perl on a save of a form onto solaris and then this functionality breaks. This is the description of the problem.

In a presentation template the following metadata is set:

TeamSite/Metadata/asso_files

This is done via this line in the tpl:

$cmd = qq($iwhome/bin/iwextattr -s TeamSite/Metadata/asso_files=$asso_files $wa$output_file);
$rc = `$cmd`;

where $iwhome,$asso_files,$wa and $output_file are all certainly populated before the command executes.

We see that this command is working on our existing windows2k environment, but now that we moved the tpl over onto solaris8, TeamSite cannot do this in the UI, while iwpt_compile.ipl does work on the command line.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to run this command successfully in TeamSite on solaris?

regards,

catorarn

Try printing out the command to a log file and executing it from a command line. What error(s) do you see?

Logging errors is a good thing. So is saving the command in a log file

thanks for the reply mates!

I added this code:

my $file = "/u017iwslog001/TeamSite/debug_portalpage.log";
open FILE, ">$file" or die "unable to open $file $!";
print FILE "$cmd";
close FILE;

Now I got the following logged in debug_portalpage.log:

"/u017iwsbin001/TeamSite/bin/iwextattr -s TeamSite/Metadata/asso_files=/documents/Algemene_Voorwaarden.pdf /.iwmnt/ICP/main/ICS_NL/WORKAREA/content/nl/VISA/Documents/gavintest.xml"

When I run this command on the command line I get:

ERROR:02005: Error locating /.iwmnt/ICP/main ICS_NL/WORKAREA/content/nl/VISA/Documents/gavintest.xml

If I navigate in the bash shell, not logged in as root, to gavintest.xml then i can view the file from the command line.

So it seems that TeamSite cannot go into /.iwmnt?

Should not need the /.iwmnt you can try to strip that away.

catorarn

hi,

I indeed find that without /.iwmnt or /iwmnt, the command line works. However, in my tpl I have declared $wa like this:

$output_file=~ s/(.*\/WORKAREA\/content)(.*)/$2/;
$wa = $1;

I tried changing $output_file to

$output_file =~ s/(\/iwmnt\/ICP\/main\/ICS_NL\/WORKAREA\/content)(.*)/$2/;

however I still get /.iwmnt there

What can you recommend me to script instead here?

cheers!!

catorarn

I attach the datacapture.cfg, a formapi file, a dcr and a presentation template called portalpage.tpl.

The portalpage.tpl causes the behaviour. See above.

If anybody understands why the $rc = `$cmd`does not work within TeamSite on solaris, I will really really appreciate this!

cheers,

How about $wa=s|/\.iwmnt||;

Adam Stoller

How about $wa=s|/\.iwmnt||;

A somewhat more thorough and less hardcoded approach (based, on the originally posted code) would be:

...
use TeamSite::Config;

my $iwmount = TeamSite::Config::iwgetmount();
my $cgimount = TeamSite::Config::iwgetlocation('iwcgimount');
...
$output_file=~ s{^(?:$iwmount|$cgimount|)(.*/WORKAREA/content)(.*)}{$2};
$wa = $1;
...

I put the regex into action, but it does not work for me. I put parts of it through the regex validator on the support website:
https://support.interwoven.com/tools/scripts/regex/RegexValidator.asp and I am not sure about the ?: part of the regex. $2 and its representation is valid.

iwpt_compile.ipl returns:

"Bareword found where operator expected at (eval 35) line 76, near "/iwmnt/ICP" (Missing operator before ICP?)

does ?: not indicate a logical drive on windows? I am on solaris (-:

cheers Fish!

I got somewhat further now.

I amended the tpl to have this now:

$output_file =~ s/^(?:$iwmount|$cgimount|)(.*\/WORKAREA\/content)(.*)/$2/;

this removes the /.imnt from the eventual iwextattr command that I have in the log file when saving the form and generating the xml file:

"/u017iwsbin001/TeamSite/bin/iwextattr -s TeamSite/Metadata/asso_files=/documents/Privacy_Statement.pdf /ICP/main/ICS_NL/WORKAREA/content/nl/VISA/Documents/privacystatement.xml

This command, however, in TeamSite still does not produce the required path on the metadata for the generated xml.

I have to have /iwmnt in that iwextattr line. Any other suggestions for the regex. I know we are really close here!

regards,

catorarn

I got indeed rid of the /.iwmnt in the path by doing the substitution Fish recommended:

$wa=s|/\.iwmnt|/\iwmnt|;

Now, I see the correct iwextattr -s syntax and from the command line this works. However, there is issue that TeamSite still cannot set the metadata string for $asso_files on the form. I think this now drills down to permissions or environment variables that the TS user does not have, that the logged in user has.

I take it that the iwui user owns the cgi execution with TeamSite, therefore iwui is trying to execute iwextattr -s? I have a feeling that there is something wrong in the execution of the presentation template iwextattr line within TeamSite. possibly the quoting is not correct?

Any further ideas would be greatly appreciated here!

catorarn

I see in the filesystem that the forms are all owned by the user that I am logged in as:

drwxrwxrwx 2 iwsman iwglobal 512 Jun 13 13:57 .

Could it be that iwui has no execute rights on the iwextattr when it is not in the iwglobal group? the iwui user was not in that group, so I asked them to add it.

However, there is issue that TeamSite still cannot set the metadata string for $asso_files on the form.

If you still have your logging in place, what is your error currently?

catorarn

I put some additional prints in the log file. I have now:

"/u017iwsbin001/TeamSite/bin/iwextattr -s TeamSite/Metadata/asso_files=/documents/routebeschrijving.pdf /iwmnt/ICP/main/ICS_NL
/WORKAREA/content/nl/VISA/Documents/routebeschrijving.xml"
workarea path is: /iwmnt/ICP/main/ICS_NL/WORKAREA/content
outputfilepath is: /nl/VISA/Documents/routebeschrijving.xml
associated file path is: /documents/routebeschrijving.pdf

The line wrap between your key=value and your file path is interesting. I just tried pasting the same string into DevNet as a preview and it did not wrap.

Can you do a chomp on your value since that might be where you have an inadvertent line break?

Also, please log $! to your log file right after your iwextattr command as this will report any errors that occur in processing that command.

FYI (even though you've gotten passed this a bit) the

(?:...)

means that you don't want to store the matching contents in a register variable - thus I was able to add that to your pre-existing expression without changing the meaning of $1 and $2 - if I hadn't put the '?:' after the '(' - your original $1 and $2 would have had to be changed to $2 and $3 respectively.
