Hi Rute,

The retry-strategy has been fixed and the modifications from http://opencast.jira.com/browse/MH-9013 have been merged in 1.4.x. You can use this functionnality again.

The best solution is to use the "stop" method from the Workflow Service Rest endpoint. You can simply use it through the Workflow Service Rest documentation (http://localhost:8080/docs.html?path=/workflow). If it still does not work, you can try the "delete" method from the same service.

Hi Xavier,

Thanks for replying. I am happy to know that this will be fixed soon :) I am still having problems with it because the operation is re-tried every time I sanitize the service and I haven't found a way yet to stop it... Is there a way to completely delete a workflow in process?
    Thanks,

Hi Rute,

The functionality you are looking for has been implemented already, and the "hold" strategy should indeed put the workflow on hold, offering the administrator the possiblity to either retry or discard. Looking at the code, it seems that this part of the retry implementation got messed up when merging it into 1.4 quite a while ago. Please track MH-9013 for the status of this problem.

Here are the answers to your questions:

1) If I don't specify max-attempts, will it try the operation forever until the service is fixed?

The default value of max-attemps is 1. But for the hold state strategy, the operation will go directly in hold state without trying a second time.

2) Shouldn't the workflow stay in on-hold instead of running state? I was expecting to see an admin screen to select the retry strategy for the failed operation.

Yes it should work as described on http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH/Retry+Strategies. You should able to choose to select the retry strategy.

3) How do I remove it from this state? :)

As described above, the functinoality is currently broken but should soon be fixed.

Hi,

I defined an operation in a workflow with retry-strategy="hold" and did not specify max-attempts. The operation failed and the workflow remained in RUNNING state. I sanitized the service and the operation failed again (I tried this many times). So my questions are: 1) If I don't specify max-attempts, will it try the operation forever until the service is fixed? 2) Shouldn't the workflow stay in on-hold instead of running state? I was expecting to see an admin screen to select the retry strategy for the failed operation.
3) How do I remove it from this state? :)
    Thanks,
