Error in External Task for email

meeragr

Hi,

I am using
Interwoven TeamSite 6.7.1 Service Pack 1,
Open Deploy Version: 6.2.0.0.0
Work Flow Modeller 1.0.0.1
Windows Server 2003.

I have an external task in the workflow using which i am calling the command
$IW_HOME/iw-perl/bin/iwperl $IW_HOME/local/config/wft/solutions/iw_solution_email.ipl -t "UserTask_Done"
Where UserTask_Done is the next task in the workflow.

I have set through the task variable of external task values of these variables:

variable key="iw_mailbody_pt " value="reviewer_iwmailbody.tpl"
variable key="iw_mailbody_text_pt " value="reviewer_textbody.tpl"
variable key="iw_mailheader_pt " value="reviewer_iwmailheader.tpl"

But when i am executing the workflow, the log file shows the error as
Task 10374 has no value for variable 'iw_mailheader_pt' at C:\Interwoven\TeamSite/local/config/wft/solutions/iw_solution_email.ipl line 196.
Task 10374 being for the external task in the job.

Am i setting the variable iw_mailheader_pt wrongly here.
Please advice.

Thanks
Me

Which log file did you find this error in? The iwutild.log file should contain the full external task command line. Trying examining that command to see if there is anything odd. Or try to run it directly to see.

Also, since you are already in TS 6.7.1 SP1, I would recommend you to use the industry standard XSLT and Java to do your external email task. XSLT email task is supported starting from SP1.
