Reading the workflow for a page throws an error

[Bart Maes]

Hi,

I'm trying to read the workflow for a given page.
Being able to read the id and headline without any problem, I thought reading the workflow would be a piece of cake too.
But unfortunately, I get the following error when I try to do so.

Error occured. Message=Missing value for attribute structureworkflow Source=erminas SmartAPI Stacktrace=   at erminas.SmartAPI.CMS.RedDotObject.EnsuredInit[T](T& variable, String attributeName, Func`2 converter) in c:\Program Files\TeamCity\buildAgent\work\da03f6a03d945cb1\SmartAPI\erminas.SmartAPI\CMS\IRedDotObject.cs:line 174

I also tried to use the extended search capabilities, and tried to add a workflowfilter, but this also generates an error.

Any idea what causes this behavior?

Hi,

we're investigating and reply as soon as we found the error.

Best,

Hi Bart,

it looks like the structureworkflow attribute is missing in the RQL response.

I'm not really sure, if this can be expected (haven't seen that myself before), or if there is something else wrong.

It would be awesome, if you could sent me a log file of when that error happens.

You can activate logging by adding the following snippet into the configuration section of your application/web.conf

 <log4net>

    <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">

      <file value="smartapi.log" />

      <appendToFile value="true" />

      <rollingStyle value="Date" />

      <datePattern value="yyyyMMdd" />

      <maxSizeRollBackups value="20" />

      <maximumFileSize value="10MB" />

      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">

        <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property{NDC}] - %message%newline" />

      </layout>

    </appender>

    <root>

      <level value="DEBUG" />

      <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender"  />

    </root>

  </log4net>

You can either post the log here or send it to jonas....@erminas.de .

Oh and we be nice to hear which version of the OTWSM you use.

TIA and cheers

Hi Jonas,

We use Management Server 11.2 Build 11.2.2.895.

Adding the snippet into the app.config of my console application doesn't seem to do the trick.

I'm not seeing any log file being created anywhere.

I'll keep trying to get the logging working, but I'm running out of ideas.

Cheers,

Bart

Hi Bart,

 

try adding

[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch = true)]

To your AssemblyInfo.cs.

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards,

Hi Jonas,

I already added this entry earlier today.

This is what my app.config file looks like right now:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="log4net"
      type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,
            log4net"/>
  </configSections> 
<startup><supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/></startup>
  <log4net>
    <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender,log4net">

      <file value="smartapi.log" />
      <appendToFile value="true" />
      <rollingStyle value="Date" />
      <datePattern value="yyyyMMdd" />
      <maxSizeRollBackups value="20" />
      <maximumFileSize value="10MB" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
        <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property{NDC}] - %message%newline" />
      </layout>
    </appender>
    <root>
      <level value="DEBUG" />
      <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender"  />
    </root>
  </log4net>

</configuration>

Best regards,

Hi Bart,

 

file looks good on first sight.

You could also try adding

log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();

to the your application startup code.

Maybe change the path of the logfile to some absolute path at  a directory you have write permissions for.

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards,

Hi jonas,

Forgot to answer the first question in your mail:

the logging works thanks to the addition of the instruction log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();

Best regards,

Bart

[Jonas Jacobi]

Bart and I could track down the problem and it is now solved in Version 1.0.5.0

Thank you again for your report!
