javas OutputStreamWriter in IWP context?

[konradBerlin]

Hi,

i'm currently building some address/letter solution under filemaker 9 for our office. one part of it will be the creation of .rtf documents based on some template using address-, salutation-, etc. data from the filemaker database. this all works fine already.

for the creation of the new letter on the intranet file server i use scriptmaster and the java OutputStreamWriter. the java code bit looks like this:

//writes text in var 'textToWrite' to file in var 'filePath'

RegisterGroovy( "SM_writeNewFile ( filePath ; textToWrite )"; "

OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter( new FileOutputStream( filePath ), "ISO-8859-1" );

writer.write( textToWrite );

writer.close();

return true;

" )

the solution resides on an FMS9 advanced under w2k3s. when running the solution in FM9 pro, it works fine.

but i would like to run the whole solution under IWP, it should appear as-if integrated in outlook2007, as a webpage pasted onto a public folder.

but the behavior of the java trying to access fileserver shares under IWP is strange. if it would not work at all, i would think, it is about security setting of IE7, but it does always work the first time, and than not anymore in the same session.

Under IWP running in outlook2007/ IE7 i can create a new letter on the file server by using an UNC path like myservermysharelettersprojektnewletter.rtf and let it open in word using the ‘openUrl’ script step once. the second time in the same IWP session filecreation fails, IWP throws an error message in the IWP server log about some ‘no access’ problem:

Does anybody know what’s going on here?

Keep in mind that FileMaker runs as a different user when running as IWP (I think it's the 'SYTEM' user but I'm not sure; check task manager to find out) than running in the client, where it just runs as you. This is probably the reason why it works from the client but gives you a security error from the server.

Great hint!

the process runs under SYSTEM account. the docs root was on an different server than filemaker, and SYSTEM can for all i know only access the local system. i created a share on the server filemaker server in running on, and it seems to work.

Changing service account of FMS to domain-administrator also allows creation of rtf-files on other servers.

Very strange file creation with SYSTEM account on another file server did work before at all! it should not...

I kind of thought, IE7 as a client is creating the RTF-File, but its the IWP server proccess it self!

thanks a lot. scriptMaster is really great !
