I want to run iwwft_compile.ipl file as admin user

I want to run iwwft_compile.ipl file as admin user. I want to allow business users to delete the files using the custom menu. Current delete function doesn't allow the admin users to delete the files of other user.
I want to create the custom menu for this. I have created the cgi file which gets called when user clicks on custom menu.
This cgi file need to instantiate the new workflow by creating the job specification file. But after creation of the job specification file, it gives the error as :
ERROR: failed starting job
You must be a master to run iwjobc.

Please suggest ASAP
Thanks in advance

I did the same this as you, created a custom delete button that starts a workflow, but I didn't use iwjobc.

I found this code worked great for my client.

Hi thanks for the quick reply.

But it gives the same error as
Error Creating Workflow: You must be a master to run iwjobc.

WFSystem::createWorkflow internally uses the iwjobc CLT, so the error remians same.
Any other suggestion will be appreciated

Thanks in advance

Are you using iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi in your menu configuration?
If "Yes", remove it for this particular menu Item. That mechanism impersonates the currently logged in TeamSite user.

Alternatively, if your platform is Unix you may perhaps set up your menu's CGI effective UID to root if you have credentials to do so:
$>su root
$>chmod 5775 your_menu_item.cgi
