iwov_wrapper_cgis | TS 6.7

Hi ,

Using TS 6.5 SP2

Want to know do we have iw-home/httpd/iw-bin/iwov_wrapper_cgis
file in TeamSite 6.7 or not ? Does TeamSite 6.7 supports this.

We have this in 6.1 & 6.5.

Please make sure you have the filename correct. I do not believe that anything with that name actually existed (OOTB) with any version of TeamSite - though there is something called iwcgi_wrapper.cgi - which I believe still exists in 6.7 though I cannot verify that right now.

iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi still exists in 6.7.1. For your old code to work, copy and rename the new cgi wrapper into your custom directory.

Hi Ghoti,

Yes the filename & path is correct. If you go to iw-home/httpd/iw-bin dir
you will find this file.

It exists in 6.1 & 6.5 .

I am attaching this file. This file contains the list of cgi programs which can only be executed with user having MASTER role.

But if you want that all the users should have permission to execute that script then you place in this file.

I want to to initiate my workflow from my custom menu item ( say Action-->My WF ) . I have written following CGI script.

[HTML]my $wft = TeamSite::WFtemplate->new(template => $wft_file);

$wf_system->CreateWorkflow($wf_spec);
$job->Invoke();
[/HTML]

Now when I initiate it from custom menu item , I get an error message "You must be a master to run iwjobc"

So if i add my script name to this file then it will not give this error message & it will execute.

Attached the 'iwov_wrapper_cgis' from 6.1 and also my sample CGI script to invoke workflow.

Please let me know if there is some alternative to invoke workflow without having MASTER rights.

Thanks in advance

Hmm - I don't recall ever seeing that file, however I do see it mentioned in the output from a 5.0.1 support diagnostic script run (though I don't see it documented anywhere). Have you tried invoking your wft with iwwft_compile.ipl to see if that works?

Using the CreateWorkflow interface, one must be a master to start a workflow. One way around this is to invoke the CGI without impersonalization. (AKA do not use the wrapper.) This way, the "iwui" user will invoke the CGI and the "iwui" user should be a master.

Thanks a lot jed

It solved my problem . Now even if the user is not a MASTER he is able to invoke workflow from my custom menu script.

Thanks a lot once again.
