What error are you getting ? Some more info would be helpful.

This is usually pretty easy, iwjobc to get the number then
iwinvokejob with the number

What are you running & what is happening ?

You're not passing iwjobc a WFT, are you? WFTs are not job specifications. iwjobc wants a job spec.

Good point, I forgot about that.

iwjobc needs VERY CLEAN xml, no CDATA, etc

You cannot build one of these with WFB.

iwjobc gladly accepts CDATA.

The difference between a WFT and a job spec is not simply XML style. It is the XML grammar.

Hi,

Yes im doing the mistake of starting a WFT, so in other words to start a workflow by the command line i should wirte a perl script that replaces all my variavles and writes a clean XML to be executed is it?

You may look into converting the WFT to clean XML, I did it & it is not that tough.

There is also a step when the WF is run, it may be creating a clean XML file (something like /tmp/foo.xml) when it is run from
the GUI.

This will be hardcoded but that may be a good start.
