topic Can't find scripting engine for 'text/javascript' in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/can-t-find-scripting-engine-for-text-javascript/m-p/255408#M208538 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I wrote a simple workflow using activiti that doesn't have any user input or anything… it is simply a start task -&gt; execute JS code -&gt; end task. The JS code is below:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>var s = fso.CreateTextFile("C:\\Test\\testMIKEjs.txt", true);</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>s.WriteLine('Hello');</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>s.Close();</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>When I start this process, it does not work and I get the below error. Does anyone know why I am getting this error? Or maybe if I don't have something configured properly? </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks to anyone who can help!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>2011-10-24 10:26:09,173&nbsp; ERROR [ui.common.Utils]
