How to do runas admin in webscript

[cperez]

I try to run my webscript as admin permissions like is described in http://docs.alfresco.com/3.4/references/api-ws-runas.html, but my alfresco version is 3.0 Labs and I can't do that.

My web script run a script placed in "Data Dictionary/Scripts" that remove one file where the user haven't got the 'remove' permission.

My "doAct.get.desc.xml" is:

‍‍

If I refresh my webscript I get the next error message:

Alfresco Web Scripts MaintenanceMaintenance CompletedReset Web Scripts Registry; registered 284 Web Scripts. Previously, there were 285.Warning: found 1 broken Web Scripts. Previously, there were 0.Broken Web ScriptsFailed to parse web script description document doAct/doAct.get.desc.xml ; runas user declared for script in insecure store (workspace://SpacesStore/app:company_home/app:dictionary/cm:extensionwebscripts/doAct/doAct.get.desc.xml)List Web Scripts‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And If I run the web script I get the next error:

Web Script Status 404 - Not FoundThe Web Script /alfresco/service/doAct has responded with a status of 404 - Not Found.404 Description:   Requested resource is not available.

This happens if my webscript is in "Data Dictionary/Web Scripts" and in "Data Dictionary/Web Scripts Extensions".

How I can solve it?? Where is the secure store??

thanks in advance

If you want to  use

<authentication runas="admin">user</authentication>‍

element in your web script descriptor,you should place the webscript in classpath instead of repository.

[cperez]

thanks. I will try it later and check if it is my solution.

But now I have one question. Let me explain:

I want to import a script located in "Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js" within the webscript "doAct.get.js" and I use the next four options with errors in all of then:

//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">//<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">;<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">;‍‍‍‍‍‍

And this is the error:
If I comment the import lines the error doesn't appear.
With the import line I get an error with "status.code = 404;" (work if the import resource line is commented)
If I comment the line with status code, I get the error in the "model.fichero=fichero;" (It also works if the import resource is commented)

And this is my "doAct.get.js":

//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/actions.js">//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js"><import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">//______________________//______________________// var fichero = null;var fichero = getDoc(args.nId);var periodoAbierto;var mensaje="";// if (fichero == null){   status.code = 404;   status.message = "File not found.";   status.redirect = true;} else {   model.fichero = fichero;   // Obtener si el mes al que pertenece el fichero está abierto   periodoAbierto = getPeriodoAbierto(fichero);   if (!periodoAbierto){      status.code = 404;      status.message = "El periodo al que pertenece la factura ya est&aacute; cerrado y no se pueden realizar operaciones.";      status.redirect = true;   } else {      if(args.act=="supr"){         try{         var nombre = fichero.properties.name;         if(remove_node(fichero)){               mensaje = "Factura  '" + nombre + "' eliminada Correctamente.";            } else {               mensaje = "No se ha podido eliminar la factura '" + nombre + "'.";            }         } catch(err) {            status.code = 403;            status.message = "El usuario no tiene permisos para borrar el fichero.";            status.redirect = true;         }      } else if(args.act=="edit"){         // Comprobar que la factura está Aprobada         var estadoFichero = getEstado(fichero);         // Mostrar error si el período está cerrado         if (!estadoFichero){            status.code = 404;            status.message = "La factura no est&aacute; aprobada.";            status.redirect = true;         } else {            mensaje = cambiarMetadatos(url.args, args, fichero);         }      } else {         status.code = 404;         status.message = "La operaci&oacute;n especificada '" + args.act + "' no es correcta.";         status.redirect = true;      }   }}model.mensaje=mensaje;model.nId = args.nId;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The error happens with all the "status.*" and "model.*" lines when the import tag is not commented, but i must import that file.

Have you got any idea about the solution??

Thanks a lot!

[kaynezhang]

The import lines must always be first in the file - <strong>even before any comments,and without ending ";"</strong>
So your doAct.get.js should be like this

<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">//______________________//______________________// var fichero = null;var fichero = getDoc(args.nId);var periodoAbierto;var mensaje="";….‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

or like this

<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">//______________________//______________________// var fichero = null;var fichero = getDoc(args.nId);var periodoAbierto;var mensaje="";….‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I did the same you mention but it still showing error on the same lines as before.

After that, I emptied the imported script in case there were some error in the file but still the same error.

I don't know why this is happening.

[kaynezhang]

Weird,it should work.It might have something to do with your alfresco version.
Please try to place all webscripts file(doAct.get.js/doAct.get.desc.xml/doAct.get.ftl) and "modify_metadata.js" into classpath and import it from classpath using

<import resource="classpath:/***/***/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

[cperez]

I place all the documens (webscripts files and modify_metadata.js)in that folder and restart alfresco every time I modified any file:

/opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct‍‍‍

and I try to import the javascript file with that options:

<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

and

<import resource="classpath:/opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

and finally with the repository javascript

<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

but I'm having the same error.

Do you know any other option??
Or is there another way to do that??

[kaynezhang]

Weird ,both

<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

and

<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">‍‍‍

should work.
Could you please try to copy content in "modify_metadata.js" into "doAct.get.js"  and avoid using import?

[cperez]

Yes I tried it.
If I copy content in "modify_metadata.js" into "doAct.get.js", it works ok but I need to avoid that option because I want to hide the content to end users. This is why i want to store "modify_metadata.js" in alfresco repository ans use the import option in "doAct.get.js".

Thanks.

[kaynezhang]

Could you please try it in a newer alfresco version ,it might be a bug of your version.
