Unix pipes don't work under workflow

DaveDeutsch

Based on the workflows I have created calling unix shell scripts as external tasks, I have not been able to get unix pipes to work (e.g., cat file | grep "dave"). I haven't gotten TeamSite unix commands that use pipes to work either under workflow. They work from the command line successfully just not under workflow. Anyone have a similar experience and/or solution? We're running on Solaris. Thanks in advance.

I always have WF run a perl script (you need to worry about the taskback info anyway).

From there I can use redirection (mostly like >> /tmp/ARK.txt 2>&1)

I just tried it out on 552 SP2 (solaris 8) using a simple XML job spec and invoking the workflow via iwjobc. The workflow was one simple external task to run a shell script and it worked as expected. I command I executed was the following:

#! /bin/sh

ls -l /tmp | grep test > /tmp/hello.worldi.jed

The results was a file listing all files in the tmp dir with 'test' in the file name. If you want the job spec lemme know and I will upload it. (I am too lazy to FTP the file over to my laptop right now.)
