iwsend mail error in execution

SandyMandy

Hi,

I am trying to execute the iwsend_mail.ipl from my workflow as an external task.

currently I am using
<command v="iwperl d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl">
<variables>
<variable key="mail_to" value="abc3@abc.com"/>
<variable key="mail_cc" value="abc3@abc.com"/>
<variable key="mail_from" value="abc3@abc.com"/>
<variable key="mail_message" value="This Space Available for Advertising"/>
<variable key="mail_subject" value="Sample Subject Line"/>
</variables>

</command>

command line out put in team site log: iwperl d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl

I have also tried to write the command in a single command tag like:

<command v="iwperl d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl -t \"abc3@abc.com\"
-f \"abc3@abc.com\" -m \"This Space Available for
Advertising\" -s \"Sample Subject Line\""/>


and

This does not works from the NT command line too.....

<command v="iwperl d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl -t 'abc3@abc.com'
-f 'abc3@abc.com' -m 'This Space Available for
Advertising' -s 'Sample Subject Line'"/>


from the command prompt the command successfully executing is:

iwperl d:\sendmail\iwsend_mail.ipl -t "abc.abc.com" -f "amit3@abc.com" -m "A TeamSite Task has been assigned to you by AKTestWF." -s "Hi Sandeep its Amit : Please Approve the Task"


Please let me know how to resolve this problem in NT.


regards,
Sandeep Madan

If you're running the script as d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl - I have to assume that this is a custom script (presumably modified from the original IWHOME/bin/iwsend_mail.ipl) - as such it is difficult for anyone here to debug the problem without seeing the script; and even then it would probably take some time since we aren't in your environment and cannot easily debug it with respect to your environment - however, posting the script (as an attachment) might help.
Alternatively, and perhaps better since it allows *you* to debug in your environment - try adding a bunch of debugging lines in the code so that you can see what's happening.
One possibility, and the easiest to test, is that "iwperl" is not on your PATH - try changing the command to be:

your-iwhome-path/iw-perl/bin/iwperl d:/sendmail/iwsend_mail.ipl

and see if that resolves the problem.
