Some problems in Advanced Workflow

[richard_tsai]

Hi! there,
   My users want a workflow like
(document inbound)=>reviewer(assign assignees)=>cosign==>closed.
So, I created a workflow template like parallelreview and a javascript to invoke the workflow. The workflow basically works, but I still have some problems as follows… (( Your help is appreciated! Thanks.. ))
1. Where can I see the whole workflow status?
2. Since I use inbound event to trigger my javascript. I don't hope a document has multiple workflows simutaneously. So, How can I know if there is a workflow associated to this document?
3. How can I set daily notification, if some tasks are overdue?
4. When user approve/reject in cosign, there's an AccessDeny exception

16:30:59,941 ERROR [ui.common.Utils] A system error happened during the operation: Failed to signal transition 'Submit To Reviewers' from workflow task 'jbpm$63'

Hi,

For those still watching this thread: the problem is due to the embedded Beanshell scripting language in jBPM constructing debug information like this :

log.debug("script input: "+inputMap);‍

The inputMap contains the Alfresco Node being worked on. The toString method on this does the following:

return "Node Type: " + getType() + "\nNode Properties: " + this.getProperties().size() + "\nNode Aspects: " + this.getAspects().toString();‍

The getProperties() call fails because the current user does not have permission to read the initiator's home space.

This seems related to issue AWC-896 which is marked as closed (?).

Anyway the problem can be avoided by not using any Beanshell – ie surround your <script> tags with <action class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.jbpm.AlfrescoJavaScript"> (…) </action>

I just ran into something very similar using 2.1 branch from Enterprise mirror.  Tracked it down to the org.alfresco.repo.jscript.ScriptNode.toString() method.

The problem seems to be in the getAspects() since the workflow user does not have read access to the folder where the workflow was inititated.

    /**
     * Override Object.toString() to provide useful debug output
     */
    public String toString()
    {
        if (this.nodeService.exists(nodeRef))
        {
            // TODO: DC: Allow debug output of property values - for now it's disabled as this could potentially
            // follow a large network of nodes. Unfortunately, JBPM issues unprotected debug statements
            // where node.toString is used - will request this is fixed in next release of JBPM.
            return "Node Type: " + getType() + ", Node Aspects: " + this.getAspects().toString();
        }
        else
        {
            return "Node no longer exists: " + nodeRef;
        }
    }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In my case, userB is responding with a comment to the workflow that was initiated by userA.  UserB does not have permissions on the folder where userA inititated the workflow from.

I see VariableContainer.setVariableLocally() called to create bpm_context name (not sure why that is being set at this point since the workflow is way past the initiation stage) with the folder the workflow was initiated from.  This in turns ends up calling the ScriptNode.toString() method listed above which causes the permissions error.

Stacktrace is below:

If you're managing Alfresco objects in script, use Alfresco Javascript, not Beanshell.

A fix has gone into jBPM, but we won't upgrade till 2.2 of Alfresco.

David, I am not using Beanshell - only Alfresco Javascript.  This also seems to be occuring with the default workflow variables anyway when they are stored back to the workflow context. 

I submitted my workflow via enterprise support. 

For now, I modified that toString() method in the source to not include the aspect info.
