Error in workflow instantiation when group selected.

Hi All,
I am getting the error when I instantiate the workflow.

I am having the reviewer in the workflow. It contains some users and 1 group
as follows:

<select required="t">
<inline command="Datasource:executeComponent:Reviewers_Users"/>
<option label="Reviewer_Group" value='Domain\user1, Domain\user2'/>
</select>

Users are comming from the datasource and second the group members are comming from the comma seprated value.

In the review task, the available users are comming from the Reviewers_Users datasource.

When I am selecting the Reviewer_Group and instantiating the workflow. I am getting error

CSInvalidGroupException: (No such group).

But when in the Reviewer_Group, I am giving only one user, then it works fine.

I read the post about use group task instead of review task, I tried that also but didn't worked.
Does anybody got the similar error, please help ?

Thanks.........

I do not believe that it will accept comma-separated entries like that as a valid value - you probably need something in between the selection and the attribute setting code to take the comma separated list and process it through a loop.

You might be able to see what's happening a bit more if you enable workflow debugging mode.

Hi Ghoti, thanks for reply.

I have enabled the debug mode and seen, what is happening in the workflow.
The difference i get is that when i select only one user then workflow converts the review task in the usertask for the user in the final workflow spec.

When i select the group i.e comma seprated value then it will convert the for the first user review task as usertask and for second user it converts the review task as group task with the user name trucated.

I have made change in the select option as

<option label="Reviewer_Group" value='Domain\user1, u-Domain\user2'/>

I have added u- for the second reviewer user. It is working fine. I have review
for the both user and now for both users it is converting review task into the usertask.

I have done same thing for 3 users also and working properly i.e except first user add u- in all the remaining users.

But now getting problem in the iw_solution_mail.ipl file.
When I am comming at this external task it gets stop and in logs throwing exception as:

Exception in E:\iwov\teamsite/custom/WIRE/mail/iw_solution_email.ipl: Can't call method "GetId" on an undefined value at E:\iwov\teamsite/custom/WIRE/mail/iw_solution_email.ipl line 394.

I am not able to understand what value are getting passed.
Please reply....
Thanks...

The good news is that iw_solution_email.ipl is a Perl script - if you know anything about perl you should know how to add debugging code to find out what is getting passed.

Thanks Ghoti, I all the issues in the workflow are solved.

The user I have passed as u- domain\user is giving the problem.
I have changed it and all the user are given same by comma seprated value
like domain\user1,domain\user2,domain\user3.

Now instead of Review task, I have used Group task. Hence all the user which I am passing in the workflow as reviewer are getting emails and also if any user in the group Take ownership and Approve or Reject it will continue.

Thanks for all you help......It helped
