ARD Task server email notification trouble shooting

I have set up my ARD Task Sever successfully. I am able to push out task from my machine to the task sever. I have set up the default mail script and was able to test it manually by running ./Notify and get an email. When I have a job set up to run I do not get a notification. I set up a simple task (Repair Permissions to test) and was unable to get ARD to send an email.
I took an additional step of changing the notification to changing the mail to go the mail server to where the task server is running. the address would read something like [email protected] Again I was able to test this manually and was able to get an email. Is there an additional file I need to edit or another setting to change to get that notification working?

Hi:
Try using formatDateTime() function if you are using BPEL process.
Try using HTML, it works.

  • Can't connect to ARD task server

    I've got ARD 3.2 installed on my machine (Dual 2.3GHz G5, os 10.4.11) and am trying to setup my server as an ARD Task Server (Dual 2.3 GHz G5, OS 10.5.4)
    Everything is setup, the correct ports are open, but when I try and authenticate into the task server (preferences > Task Server > Use remote Task Server), it seems to accept my credentials for a second, then switches the option in the preference back to "Use Task Server on this computer".
    If the credentials were wrong, I would just get an "invalid password" error. But the creds are correct, the password dialog box closes and the preference automatically changes back.
    Any ideas? I've tried completely reinstalling ARD 3.2 (latest version to date) on both machines, and in fact, I get the same error connecting to other test Task Servers at our office.
    thanks!

    That is correct. If you want to run a task server separate from your normal ARD administration system, you must purchase two copies of ARD. ARD will check for duplicate serial numbers and will fail to work properly unless each copy of the admin application has a unique number. "Unlimited" only applies to the number of client workstations you can have in the list of managed computers; it does not apply to how many systems on which you can install the adminstration application.
    It will of course be up to you whether it's worth it to purchase a second copy to have a standalone task server. For some, it makes managing things much easier and so is worth the cost, but for others it's not.

  • Does the Task Status Email Notification definition work for you?

    Hi,
    Have you ever set the email definition Task Status Email Notification? Worked?
    I've configured this template in my process tasks notifications. The e-mails for C and R status were sent OK but the values were all empty. Below are the subject and body of this email definition.
    Subject
    Process task <Process Definition.Tasks.Task Name> is <Process Instance.Task Details.Data>.
    Body
    The Process task <Tasks.Task Name> is <Task Details.Status>.
    The details of this process task are as follows:
    Process Task Name: <Process Definition.Name>
    Process Task Status: <Task Details.Status>
    Resource Name: <Resource.Resource Name>
    Target User: <Users.First Name> <Users.Last Name> [<Users.User ID>]

    Thanks for your attention.
    For all custom process tasks I have set this definition to notify the target user, for example, when the task is Completed or Rejected. For all all I've got the same problem: the notification e-mail is sent but the values are all empty.

  • ICal Server Email Notifications to Users On Same Domain

    I am using iCal Server in an environment where a all of the iCal Server users are internal to the organization with emails that end with the same internal domain name.  Is it possible for iCal to send email notifications to those people invited internally whenever an event is scheduled?  Not all of the users are using iCal as their calDAV client so it would be perfect if an email notification went out to the invitees when someone schedules an event.  Email notification works just fine if I invite someone to an event with an external email address.
    Thank you.

    iCal Server sends invitations to internal users too if you remove the email addresses of your internal users under "Info" in Workgroup Manager.
    So the Open Directory does not have an entry for the users with your internal domain, which makes iCal Server see the user as an external one.

  • ICal Server - Email notification to server users

    I am running Snow Leopard Server on a small network with 15 users. The server is not accessible outside network.
    The mail server is not hosted by Snow Leopard but by a external host.
    I start to switch each user calendar to iCal Server.
    I have two questions about the features of iCal Server:
    Is there a solution to activate the email notification in addition of the CalDav notification for users registered on the server?
    If a user is out of the network with his laptop (or iPhone), and because he can received email notification how can he receive the CalDav notifications?
    Thank you for your help

  • ARD Task Server gathering reports even when reporting is disabled

    We have noticed lately that at 2am each morning there is a considerable amount of network usage initiated by my task server presumably gathering reports from machines at different sites.
    I had recently deleted all my computers in ARD, disabled reporting, and added them back in while making sure not to apply reporting features.
    I have dug around in cron, LaunchDaemons, and plist files on the clients and on my task server. On my task server I see a plist that shows reporting is disabled on all the machines. At the client level I do not see anything regarding reporting.
    Would it be a good idea to re-send an ard configuration package to all of the clients?
    I opened a ticket with Apple, but they won't do anything without having purchased software support.

    Hmmm... I seem to have found the plist file that is doing it. I was looking at /Library/Application\ Support/Apple/Remote\ Desktop/ before... looks like /Library/Preferences/com.apple.ARDAgent.plist is the culprit.
    This plist is a binary, so I had to use plutil to convert to xml in order to make it human readable. I wonder if I can just hack this file up a bit and re-deploy it to each machine. Or I wonder if it would re-build if I simply remove it from each client. I will need to test to find out, seeing as though the task servers are listed in it, probably not a good idea to remove it all the way.

  • OIM 11g: send direct link to approval tasks in email notification

    Hi all!
    What do I want to achieve: I want to send email notification to assignee in case if some approval task in OIM has assigned to them and this notification must have a direct link to the page of approval task details from which assignee can approve or reject an approval task.
    The default email notification that exists in approval task “DefaultRoleApproval” has a direct link to a request details page:
    <a href="<%substring-before(/task:task/task:payload/task:url , "/workflowservice/CallbackService")%">/oim/faces/pages/Self.jspx?OP_TYPE=LOOKUP&E_TYPE=MY_REQUEST&T_ID=<%/task:task/task:payload/task:RequestID%>>
    But unfortunately from this page we can’t do any action such as reject or approve.
    To find a direct link to an approval task details page (Self Service -> Tasks -> Task Details: Approval) from which I can perform needed operation I used document ID 748447.1. But I haven’t found a direct link.
    What is the direct link to task details page for approval with exact ID which I can include in an email to satisfy my requirement?
    Thanks in advance!</a>

    If at all you cannot get the direct link for approve/reject then try the actionable email from SOA. Once you have that configured the emails gets approver/reject links so that approvers can directly approve/reject the task from email. If that works for you then you can look at the format of those links in the email and deduce what you need the url as.

  • OIM 11g: send direct link to provisioning tasks in email notification

    Hi everyone!
    What do I want to achieve: I want to send email notification to admins in case if some task in OIM has finished with errors and this notification must have direct link to this task.
    To find direct link to task detail page I used document ID 748447.1. I found that this link must be formed in next way:
    http://ip.address:port/xlWebApp/OpenTasks.do?method=loadTaskDetails&entityKey=<TaskID>
    To create this link I must insert ID of the task to the end of the string.
    Next I created email template via design console and attached it in notification tab of the task to status ‘R’.
    The problem is next: during creation email template there are any variables that holds task ID.
    How can I obtain ID of task in an email template?

    Thanks for the quick response!
    I use a standard mechanism for sending notifications - via email template. This is a standard mechanism has a number of variables that are dynamically calculated at the time of posting. Among these available variables do not have the required me taskid.
    Is there any mechanism which would give an opportunity to expand the list of dynamically calculated variables in a way that I figured taskid?
    Or what do you mean by the phrase "+have to fetch it from the database+"?
    I do not know how to connect the logic of its own calculation of the required variables in the template notifications.

  • How to deactivate the ARD Task-Server ?

    Everytime I startup ARD 3.4 on my home Mac, the Task-Server configuration window will open, asking for the address of the remote Mac OS X Server of my office, with is not permanently connected to my Mac.
    How can I deactivate this prompting startup window ?
    Thanks in advance for infos !

    Thanks for your answer.
    I already choose this in Preferences and the radio button is marked, but the strange behaviour persists. Which preferences file is responsible for the task server settings ?

  • Ard task server, tasks sit idle

    Hi guys,
    I've seen quite a few unresolved tickets regarding this issue and wondering if anyone has found a fix? 
    We have 3x licenses of ARD and contain over 400-500 machines so using the same license is not an issue.  We are obviously trying to deploy applications using the task server but only two are actually succeeding, these machines being on the same network range while the other 400+ are sitting idle...
    Help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks.

  • Ard task server issue: clients always "idle"

    Like others I've seen on this list, we're having issues using Task Servers with ARD. I've looked for answers here and elsewhere and tried a number of possible solutions, but nothing I've found yet has solved our continuing, recurring issues.
    No matter -how- I configure ARD with Task Servers, jobs always "hang" infinitely with status, "Install Packages: In progress"; "The remaining X computers are currently idle."
    Task servers "used" to work for us-- but never quite reliably-- and I can't exactly pin down at what point they've stopped working for us.
    It doesn't matter whether I use the "task server on this computer" or any of the network task servers I've set up on our network. I've erased/renamed ARD config files and databases (from the obvious plists to the not-obvious /var/db folders); I've wiped all traces of ARD from my machine and reinstalled; I've reimaged my machine and reinstalled ARD; I've set up ARD on other machines to test-- but consistently, using a Task Server fails to perform. The task doesn't "fail" per se; rather-- it just never gets performed.
    Logs on the Task Server -sometimes- have messages like this: "ARDAgent[42915] BUG ALERT!! Client in task list has no entry in Server's client database."
    Am glad to share any logs, other things I've tried, or bang around ideas with anyone else who is dealing with or has dealt with this.
    Thanks!

    In ARD, have you checked to see what time/date your targets are set to report to?
    if so, are the targets set to report at a time/day they would be on, awake, and connected to the same network as the ARD computer? On the same line of thought, will the ARD computer be on, awake, and connect to the same network at that time/date? Have you tried forcing an ARD report to run? (you would do this much like how you would test an alarm clock by setting the alarm clock time to be a few minutes ahead of the current time) (remember the client runs the report based on the time on the client)
    After forcing a report an auto report, dose sending the task to a few local targets fail?

  • ARD Task Server

    I have a separate license for ARD that I utilize as a task service on an Xserve. Whenever I log out of the Xserve, the ARD task service stops running. The ARD manual hints that the task server will continue to run. An Apple SE stated that it should continue to run after I log out.
    Although counterintuitive, should the ARD task service continue to run after I log out? If so, by what magic is this accomplished?

    Well phooey. I'm not sure what's worse; finding that an issue can't be resolved or resolving an issue, but not knowing why.
    Anywho, the task server is now running after user log out. The only change I made was to upgrade the ARD software to 3.3.1. Prior to this, I loaded, uninstalled and reloaded 2.2+.
    This, of course, doesn't explain "why". It just resolves the problem. Bummer.
    Thank you for your responses. I do now understand a bit more about the process at least.

  • Task Assignment Email Notifications

    In LiveCycle ES 8.2 after a task has been assigned to a group all members of that group are sent an email notification. I just noticed that some of the groups I have setup have more then 10 users, and the email notification is only going to the first 10 users in that group, the others users are not receiving an email notification. Is there a configuration setting that will alow me to change this limit to more than 10 users or is this the default limit set by the system that can't be changed.

    Hi Folks
    This issue was fixed in ES2.

    Aug 8 12:29:49 servername cyrus-quota[1693]: DBERROR: reading /var/imap/db/skipstamp, assuming the worst: No such file or directory
    at which point we rebooted.
    This server was not running mail.
    So we have changed all are passwords, are reimaging everything and had the sysadmin block all outgoing on port 25. In addition we have sent copies of the logs to our Apple rep and to the Intego rep.
    This is an incredibly vague question but what should we do now?
    Is there a way to find out where these virus' came from? It is not impossible they were put on by a student as we recently found out that a number of the help desk students had the Mac admin password. I've looked at the install logs and the only things I see are the Apple software updates and apps we installed ourselves.
    Are there other logs I can look in?

    Thanks in advance; any help would be appreciated.

    The problem isn't related to ARD, per se, so you might get more opinions in the Mac OS X forums.
    But I can find no reference anywhere to any exploits, Mac OS X or Windows, titled "OSX.Botch.Gen" or "OSX.PsyBot.232" (or the same without the OSX prefix). So if these are direct cut-and-paste from the logs, then I don't have a clue what VirusBarrier is reporting. Nor has the existence of any Mac OS X virus or worm been confirmed in the wild. There is a trojan called "SpyBot.232", but from what little I can find, it's Windows only. You may want to consult Intego and try to confirm what these purported virus errors are.
    Resource errors usually mean that the virus checker just can't completely parse the file in question. It rarely reflects an actual exploit discovery.
    I'm therefore rather dubious as to the culpability of your server in the spam, particularly since you say that the mail server wasn't running. I'd be interested to know what evidence your IT people provided, or claimed, that would show that it was your server sending the spam. As I said, there's been nothing confirmed, or even mentioned, that I've seen regarding any virus or worm for Mac OS X that can send spam emails.
