Yeah, ACL. You know, that thing that pro athletes are always tearing...

 

No, seriously I mean the active link logs in AR User. They can sometimes
show more info than the error message would.

Yes, the execute bits are on. I've changed it to 

@@:/opt/ar/remedy/bin/logreconstart.sh "$USER$" "$colJobName$"
"$TIMESTAMP$" 

as a run process command.

 

ACL logging?

Hmm...Troubleshooting

 

1.       Is the execute bit set on the logreconstart.sh script? (I
assume this will get a "Of course" response, but I had to ask)

2.       Are you trying to execute the $PROCESS$ from a Run Process
action or a Set Fields?

3.       If you turn on ACL logging what do you see in the log?

I tried this, and still get "The system cannot find the file specified."
Now my command is:

$PROCESS$ @@:/opt/ar/remedy/bin/logreconstart.sh "$USER$" "$colJobName$"
"$TIMESTAMP$"

 

and the script is just what you suggested:

#!/bin/sh

echo $1 $2 $3 >> /opt/ar/remedy/cmdb/Logs/startrecon.log

 

And it is in place with execute permissions.

 

???

What if you add the full path to echo in the command:

 

$PROCESS$ @@:/bin/echo "$USER$" "$colJobName$" "$TIMESTAMP$" >>
startrecon.log

 

However, I suspect that that won't work either, because ">>" is a shell
directive and will get interpreted as an argument to echo rather than
telling the shell what to do with the output of the echo command.  You
might be better off writing a little shell script that take three
command line arguments and effectively has this command in it.
Something like this:

 

#!/bin/sh

 

echo $1 $2 $3 >> /path/to/startrecon.log

 

Then your run process action would look like this:

 

$PROCESS$ @@:/path/to/scrip "$USER$" "$colJobName$" "$TIMESTAMP$"

 

Good luck.

** 

I'm having an issue with a run-process command from an active link:

$PROCESS$ @@:echo "$USER$" "$colJobName$" "$TIMESTAMP$" >>
startrecon.log

or

$PROCESS$ echo "$USER$" "$colJobName$" "$TIMESTAMP$" >> startrecon.log

 

I get a "system cannot find file specified" error.  This command from
the command line creates the file if it doesn't exist.  That's what I
want.  I've also passed the entire path with no luck.  I've also tried
specifying the full path to a file that does exist.  What am I doing
wrong?
