Exception while creating a workflow job

Hi!

We created a new workflow and trying to create job out of it. Instantiation screen works fine. After filling the instantiation form , we are not able to proceed to the next step. We are getting an an error on screen and we have captured the corresponding exception from server.log. The excerpt from server.log is attached to the case.

Any help and guidance to fix the issue will be appreciated!

Thanks!

Vinay.

The stack trace says:

2016-03-23 08:38:16,505 ERROR [STDERR] com.interwoven.cssdk.access.CSInvalidGroupException: Unknown Hopi error(No such group)

I would edit the available_models.xml and turn debug on, then instantiate the workflow and choose the debug option, It will output the XML as well as the variables. Start looking through the XML, specifically at your group tasks for invalid entries.

If I had to guess (which is about all I can, and am willing to, do right now) - I'd say the line of relevance is:

2016-03-23 08:38:16,505 ERROR [STDERR] 
  com.interwoven.cssdk.access.CSInvalidGroupException: 
  Unknown Hopi error(No such group)

This would seem to indicate that somewhere within the resultant job specification of the [almost] instantiated workflow there is a reference to a group that does not exist.

Try turning on the workflow debugging option to see if you can get as far as generating the job specification - if so, look through that output very carefully for any references to groups - and then check very carefully to verify that any such references are correct / accurate / etc.

Nice post Adam, just repeat everything I said. :-)

Adam Stoller

Apparently we were responding at the same time - or else I somehow completely missed your post.

I'll prefer to think of it as being in the "great minds" category ;-)
