Hi,
I've been trying to create a simple web view for Orchestrator (5.5.1 1617127), which will present a link to run a single workflow. I followed the instructions in the VMware Guide and the VCO Team Blog, but both end up with similar errors, which seem to have a common root: it looks as though the web view can't read the attributes.
On the web page, I'll see something similar to the following:
Webview - An exception has occurred.
Reason: WorkflowLink component error: 'attribute' (aliases 'workflow') parameter value ('createVM') is not defined in the list of the Webview attribute
You may continue by restarting the session.
In the server.log, I see the following:-
2014-10-02 11:46:04.717+0100 [http-bio-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx-8281-exec-2] INFO {} [WebviewExceptionPage] Webview Exception - message:
org.apache.hivemind.ApplicationRuntimeException: WorkflowLink component error: 'attribute' (aliases 'workflow') parameter value ('createVM') is not defined in the list of the Webview attribute
The attribute createVM is defined in that correct web view as an attribute with a Type of Workflow and a value of Create simple virtual machine. I get similar errors no matter what kind of attribute I try to get from the workflow (the getVirtualMachineList example doesn't create an error on the page, but doesn't populate the window, and creates a similar message in the log).
Can anyone give me any pointers on what to look at next? I can't seem to find anyone else with this error, which makes me think it might be something specific to this environment, but I can't work out what it might be.
Thanks in advance,
Ben
