Hi
I urgently need to find a method to schedule a batch job from a self serv html page. It will be very close to the TM4626;however, I don't have the MRE in my system, so the method from Vincent Lam is not working.
Since I am using 7.1.3 Webfocus, I hope I can make use of the method.
Any one has any solution? Please help me

You can still use the sample from Vincent. I shouldn't any more then a couple of hours to change it to what you need. Pay close attention to the parameters named IBIB_domainhref and IBIB_folderhref (ignored for self service). Also, look for the creation of the variable taskType=Task.STANDARD_REPORT, change it to Task.WEBFOCUS_SERVER_PROCEDURE. There may be a couple of little things, but the changing from STANDARD_REPORT to WEBFOCUS_SERVER_PROCEDURE is all you should really have to do.

Lastly, in the gotoSchedule change

if(errmsg != null) {
%>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_domainhref" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_domainhref") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_taskobj" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_taskobj") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_folderhref" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_folderhref") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_server" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_server") %>'>
<%
}
else {
%>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_domainhref" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIMR_domain") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_taskobj" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIMR_fex") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_folderhref" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIMR_folder") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_server" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIC_server") %>'>
<%
}
%>  

to

  
if(errmsg != null) {
%>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_taskobj" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_taskobj") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_server" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIB_server") %>'>
<%
}
else {
%>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_taskobj" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIF_exec") %>'>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="IBIB_server" value='<%= request.getParameter("IBIC_server") %>'>
<%
}
%>

That should take care of it. Forgive me if there are any minor issues I haven't pointed out ... it has been almost 8 months since the last time I looked at this.

Thanks for your reply.
I have major problem in following due to my lack of jsp knowledge.
a few changes I made-
I changed the go..jsp by deleting the 2 lines as shown in your sample, but not working.
I still have the AUTH.. problem.

Oh ya, the Auth problem!

The example you are working with relies on either the MR_COOKIE or the RC_COOKIE being set. If you are not logging onto MRE then that would be a problem.

A quick workaround is to edit the Schedule.jsp and look for the following line in getScheduleManager function.

CasterConnection cciConnection = (CasterConnection)connectionFactory.getConnection(credential);

Comment it out with // at the beginning of the line and replace with:

CasterConnection cciConnection = (CasterConnection)connectionFactory.getConnection(new PasswordCredential("admin", new char[0]));

That is the default admin userid with no password. This should get you by the authentication problem for now. You should really replace it with the users valid RC userid and password, but get it working like this before you tackle that.

When you are ready, you can pass two more parameters containing the userid and password (e.g. rcUserid and rcPassword). Then you will replace the above line with:

CasterConnection cciConnection = (CasterConnection)connectionFactory.getConnection(new PasswordCredential(request.getParameter("rcUserid"), request.getParameter("rcPassword").toCharArray()));

Hope this helps
