Hi

You will be glad to discover that there are indeed command line tools for workflow in TeamSite 6.

Check out the TeamSite 6 Command Line Tools documentation/pdf which can downloaded from the support site. On page 66 (of the unix version) it lists the workflow and job tools which you can use.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Michael

In TS 552 there is iwjobc, you can start looking there.

BTW, the account starting the job requires master access.

I have invoked jobs from an IPL.

1.- First of all I create the workflow file:
my $var = "/iw-home/local/.../wft/wfb/my_workflow.wft"

2.-You create an instance of the job executing the "iwjobc" CLT, This CLT returns an ID for the job.
my $job_num = `/iw-home/bin/iwjobc $var`;

3.- You execute the instance of the job with the "iwinvokejob" CLT.
qx(/iw-home/bin/iwinvokejob $job_num);

After this, the first task will be activated and send to the user who must own it.

If you're using a recent version of TeamSite (e.g. 5.5.2) you can using 'iwjobc -i' and avoid the need to capture the jobid and execute iwinvokejob. However, this can only be run by someone who is in the 'master.uid' file.

Actually iwjobc expects a job spec not a wft

Yes, What I actually do is create a define a wft, and before creating/instanciating the job, I parse the file and swat values for user, path to file, etc... as necesary in my script. This way for example, if I want to start a translation job for the content I can throuth cgi choose which person do I want to send the file to and so on.

Hi ,

What do you exactly mean by iwjob expects a job spec and not a wft file ? Can you please elaborate more it.

I am trying to use the iwjobc for a wft file, and get the following error when executed from command line :

\Program Files\Interwoven\TeamSite\local\config\wft\wfb>iwjobc -i CMS.wft
junk after document element at line 271
ERROR:00001: Failure in operation

I am using TS6.5 on Win2K platform.

Thanks

This was responded to in another thread and for more details RTFM, search the forums, or take workflow training from Interwoven.
