Issues with podcast submission, tried multiple options

I’m trying to submit a new podcast to iTunes.  I’m using podpress on Wordpress and hosting the mp3 files on our servers.  I know podpress isn’t ideal but it seems to be the only one I’ve found that work with our website.  The subscribe to podcast by url is working fine, it downloads all the needed information. 
http://centralfloridatop5.com/category/orlandotourismreport/feed/
But when I try to submit the podcast I keep getting the ‘We had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed’ message.  I’ve checked multiple times the picture size, file with no spaces and other options I’ve found on these boards.I even had our IT guy take a look at it and he seemed to not know what the issue was.
I tried the regular blog feed http://centralfloridatop5.com/feed/ and it works for the podcast by url but again not the Submit a Podcast feed url.
I’m not out of options and don’t know what to try next.  Any ideas?

As you say your feed can be subscribed to OK. I can't see any obvious reason why it's falling over on submission, though there are a few minor points:
Your server is a bit slow to respond, though I wouldn't have thought the delay was long enough to cause a timeout.
Your filenames have spaces in them. Spaces are not allowed in a URL, but the feed is handling this correctly by substituting the code %20 for each space so it shouldn't be causing a problem, it's just messy.
The 'length' attribute in your 'enclosure' tags is set to '1'  - it should be the file size in bytes. I wouldn't have thought this would have caused a problem.
Sometimes the submissions process falls over - I can only suggest waiting a day or so and trying again.

  • Printing Issues with HP D145 and multiple users from G5

    Hi - I've a HP D145 All-In-One connected via USB to a G5 (as described below). The machine has multiple accounts on for different members of my family. The printer is directly connected to the G5 via USB connection but is shared with other Macs. Printing has become increasingly difficult, and we now have the following problems:
    1. Printing will only work from the administrators account.
    2. Printing periodically (daily, generally after a few hours of use) stops from the administrators account
    Solutions tried:
    a. Check set up for the non-administrators accounts....Looks OK for printing
    b. When printing stops - I've tried repairing the permissions with the Disk Utility. This no longer works.
    c. Run Printer Setup Repair (with option to repair all user accounts) - Works for the administrators account providing the computer and printer are restarted, otherwise no effect.
    d. Reinstalling the software - No effect
    It’s beginning to look like I need to replace this printer with one that works.
    You can help me in two ways - how to solve the printer problems, or alternatively suggest a colour All-in-One printer that can work with multiple accounts and does not have the problems mentioned above.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Melvyn

    Below I've copied the fix HP proposed and some additional information that they have sent me.
    1. The proposed fix that we could not make work:
    Hello Melvyn,
    Thank you for contacting HP Total Care.
    Simply reinstalling the software will not be enough to solve the
    problem. Try these steps to resolve the issue at hand:

    Click Add at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
    Set this printer as the default.
    You should now be able to print from all accounts.
    Sincerely,
    2. The reasons why it may not have worked:
    We need to be sure that you are fully logging out of one account and
    then back into the next. The fast user switching feature of the Mac OS
    can create problems with our printer drivers. For this reason, fast user
    switching is not supported by HP.
    The other issue we may be running into would be the Mac OS itself. Over
    the past few months the Mac OS has gone through several updates. When
    the 10.4.4 version was released it created some issues with our existing
    software. An updated version of our software has been developed which
    works well with 10.4.4 and higher, but it is not available for this
    printer.
    It may be that as each new OS update is installed on your computers that
    the issue becomes worse. If you are running the Mac OS 10.4.3 or lower
    then the version 7.3.1 of our software should work fine. If it is 10.4.4
    or higher there will be some issues as the new OS versions do not seem
    to like the older drivers.
    I would have to recommend retrying the full uninstall the Derek had
    outlined. This time however, just install the downloaded 7.3.1 software
    from our web site for the D145. Once it has been installed we need to
    test it fully without adding the scanjet software. I am hoping that
    without both version of our software installed it may work better.
    This should resolve the issue. If you need further assistance, please
    reply to this message and we will be happy to assist you further.
    3. The repsonse to questions on switching and OS X 10.4.4
    You are correct, since you are running the 10.4.4 I cannot guarantee
    that the older software version will allow full functionality. It should
    allow for printing and as long as you avoid the fast user switching,
    when trying to print, it should keep working well.
    I understand the convenience of fast user switching but you will have to
    log completely out of one user, and then log properly into the next
    before you can expect the printer to function.
    I would still recommend trying the steps I had outlined as it really is
    the only thing you can do that may work.

  • Memory issue with Podcast !!!

    Hi,
    I have several issues with the Podcast App.
    - i cannot sync podcast that i have downloaded on my laptop using itunes to the iphone,
    - when i download some podcast directly on the iphone, i cannot play them, i still have to stream them,
    - i have uge memory issues and i think that the downloaded version of the podcast might be somewhere on the iphone, but cannot access / delete them (over 16 GO, i have more than 4.5 GO used for 'other', that are not related to anything...)
    i have tried to delete / reinstall the app, but this does not change anything...
    Any help ?

    I have a MSI 975X Platinum rev 2 mb with a e6300 processor overclocked to 2.24ghz.
    If your CPU operates @2.24 GHz, it means that you increased FSB frequency to about 348 MHz.
    To make sure there is no misunderstanding here, let me point out the following:
    Memory frequency is ALWAYS linked to FSB frequency by the FSB/DRAM Ratio you can select in BIOS.  If you select 1:1 for example, the BIOS will show that memory frequency is 533 MHz. This value however, only applies to the default FSB clock speed of 266 MHz:
    266 MHz x 1 = 266 MHz (or 533 MHz effective DDR2-frequency).
    If your system is overclocked, what counts is only FSB/DRAM ratio, not the memory speed displayed in BIOS.  That means, if you set FSB/DRAM ration to 1:1 and FSB frequency to 348 MHz, your RAM will operate @:
    348 MHz x 1 = 348 MHz (or 696 MHz effective DDR2-frequency).
    The main question is:
    What are you talking about when you say, you can't make your RAM operate @800 MHz?
    The BIOS does not offer a proper divider to get your RAM to 800 MHz @348 FSB clock speed to begin with.
    You have the following choices if your overclock your system:
    FSB=300 + FSB/DRAM ratio = 1.33
    300 MHz x 1.33 ~ 400 MHz (or 800 MHz effective DDR2-frequency)
    FSB=320 MHz + FSB/DRAM ratio = 1:1.25
    320 MHz x 1.25 = 400 MHz (or 800 MHz effective DDR2-frequency)
    FSB=400 MHz + FSB/DRAM ratio = 1:1
    400 MHz x 1 = 400 MHz (or 800 MHz effective DDR2-frequency)
    Use CPU-Z to monitor the DRAM frequency that is actually set if you are overclocking.

  • Issue with binary submission

    I have upgraded our app using Viewer Builder 1.5 and submitted the app to Apple. I have received this message from the iTunes Store:
    Dear Developer,
    We have discovered one or more issues with your recent binary submission for "[app name]". Before your app can be reviewed, the following issues must be corrected:
    Invalid Code Signing Entitlements - The signature for your app bundle contains entitlement values that are not supported. For the com.apple.developer.ubiquity-container-identifiers entitlement, the first value in the array must consist of the prefix provided by Apple in the provisioning profile followed by a bundle identifier suffix. The bundle identifier must match the bundle identifier for one of your apps or another app that you are permitted to use as the iCloud container identifier.
    Specifically, value "EH4Y8L86T7.*" for key "com.apple.developer.ubiquity-container-identifiers" in viewer is not supported.

    Do you know what this means? Did I do anything wrong?
    On Apple's iOS Provisioning Portal, under App IDs there is an option to enable iCloud. Should I have not enabled that?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    You should not enable the iCloud option. The Viewer Builder now creates viewers that store folios in the caches directory, not the Documents directory. Files cannot be backed up from the caches directory, so Apple rejected the app. Re-configure your App ID with iCloud deselected and re-create your mobileprovision files -- you should be able to use your same p12 certificates -- and then submit the app again.
    For what it's worth, I accidentally submitted one app with iCloud turned on and one with it turned off, and Apple approved both.

  • Link to report an issue with Podcast update

    Someone posted a link so we could report an issue with the Podcast app the last time there were issues with an upgrade.
    I sync with my laptop iTunes. Since this latest update to the app, when I delete a podcast in iTunes on my laptop it will not delete on my i devices during a sync with my laptop. It just grays them out and leaves them on my device. It looks like I can manually delete them, but when you click the edit function to delete them, they are no longer grayed out, so you can't tell which to delete and which to keep.
    I don't do anything with the cloud, because I have limited wifi service and do most of my updating at a free wifi hotspot.
    If someone has that online link on where to report issues, I would appreciate you posting it again and this time I will save it.

  • Apple has Major Issue with Podcast Updating

    I have been getting reports from a large number of the folks we represent at RawVoice indicating they are having the same issue with the podcast listings updating in iTunes.
    We are going to poll our 6000 podcasters and have them start watching this more closely. Everything has been working perfectly for such a long time most of us never check iTunes anymore.
    It could be some update that iTunes is doing but it is negatively effecting many podcasters because the listeners do not know enough to hit Refresh on the subscription listing.
    I know my download numbers are way down over the past week because it looks like I have not updated my show. Please check your podcast listings. If you see that they are not updating within a couple of hours of posting start submitting trouble tickets.
    Something is broke and I don't think Apple is aware of it. I am getting standard boiler plate responses back from tech support. But if they have enough submissions then they will know something is jacked up.
    Here is the info to submit a ticket, you will have to be persistent or you will not get a response.

  • Issue with podcast v2.0 app seeing synced podcasts

    Hi Everyone,
    I would be extremely grateful if someone could explain an issue I am facing with using the new Podcast v2.0 app on my recently upgraded iphone 4S IOS 7.0.4
    I am using iTunes 11.1.3.8 on a windows 7 x64 machine.  I have lectures, speeches etc (which I like to listen at 2x speed) that are in mp3 format from different websites etc that I download to my PC.   I add them to iTunes and change the "Media Kind" from Music to Podcast within iTunes, I have no problems applying this process, the categories & titles appear in the podcast menu and are synced perfectly fine onto my iphone 4S IOS 5.0.1.  I was naturally using the standard music app to listen to the podcasts and I was happy.
    I have now updated my iphone 4S to 7.0.4 and have added the podcast app to listen to the podcasts.  I do exactly the same process as I have detailed above, I have no issues, I can even see the numerous titles in their seperate podcasts listed under the podcast menu under my iphone in iTunes - so they have been physically synced over to the iphone.  The problem is in the new podcast app, I only have one podcast with one title listed, (the newest one) all the other podcasts & titles are not shown anywhere.  If I listen to the only title available to the end and then resync my iphone, I realise that the actual title played was the oldest one in iTunes. (not the newest as listed in the app) When I listen to the same & only listed podcast in the app (always the newest one) it is actually the second oldest title that is playing (according to iTunes)
    So obviously I assume the podcast v2.0 app is a lot stricter with or it needs additional requirements to be applied to an mp3 file in order that they are show up correctly in the app apart from simply changing the media kind in iTunes (which worked perfectly fine before in IOS 6 & below)
    My questions (sorry to take so long to get to them) are, does anyone know what those requirements are? can I apply them to the mp3 files within iTunes or do I need to use 3rd party software to modify/add them so the podcast app will see these manual podcasts?
    I hope someone can you help me out with this one as I really enjoy listening to podcasts and feel that my user experience would be greatly hampered if the limit to the availability of podcasts is only to those who have published on itunes or offer subscriptions.  The ability to add podcasts manually and have them synced via iTunes is always available so surely it is only a matter of properly formatting, labelling and adding the correct tags to the files so they show up in the podcast app.
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Alzoo
    (P.S Somone mentioned in aonther post changing the genre to "Podcast" as well, will check that out and get back to you all)

    To confirm, changing the genre to "podcast" has no effect on displaying the entire list of titles or other podcasts in the podcast app.  I beleive the app to have a serious bug.
    I can see all the titles in spotlight search, I can search by title name or even artist name and they appear, so clearly they are available in the iphone.  Another major issue is I can't play them in the podcast app.  I can select one from spolight and the podcast app loads however it always play the same title that is playing, it won't chnage to the title I selected.
    Another oddity (bug) is I can delete the one and only title that is listed in the podcast app and it will delete it - the title name does not change however the podcast itself changes to the next one on the list.  I can keep deleting them one by one.  the title remains the same but the contents of the podcast is the next one after next one as it goes down the list.  So the app is not able to pick up & display the numerous titles even though it can play them.
    I can change the media kind to either Audiobook or iTunesU and the mp3 files are successfully listed in both the music app or ITunesU app respectively and I have no issues seeing them all, playing them or syncing them.  only issue with itunesU is can't increase to 2x speed, it says only at 1x
    There really are some major flaws with the the podcast app v2.0. I will add a new ticket to the apple bugreport site for developers concerning these issues.

  • Issue with DB Adapter involving multiple tables

    Hi,
    Am facing an issue with DB Adapter with multiple tables. Here are the details.
    I have 4 tables. Header, Details,Products and Devices. The relationship is defined as follows:
    Header has 1:M relationship with Details.
    Details has 1:M relationship with Products.
    Products has 1:M relationship with Devices.
    I want to select the details from all the tables for a particular header_id and detail_id. Defined 2 parameters and query is created with parameters.
    SELECT DISTINCT t0.FILE_NAME, t0.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, t0.HEADER_COUNT, t0.TOTAL_DEVICE_COUNT, t0.FILE_DATE, t0.FILE_SEQ_NUMBER, t0.DEVICE_COUNT, t0.PHONE_TYPE, t0.PHONE_OWNERSHIP, t0.TRANSACTION_TYPE, t0.PURCHASE_ORDER_NUMBER, t0.CUSTOMER_ID, t0.CUSTOMER_DEST_SUFFIX, t0.LOCATION_DESTINATION, t0.MASTER_FACTORY_ORDER, t0.MASTER_FACTORY_ORDER_LINE_NUM, t0.ENT_ORDER_NUMBER, t0.DELIVERY_IDENTIFICATION_NUM, t0.UEDF_REVISION_NUM, t0.STATUS, t0.INBOUND_BPEL_INSTANCE_ID, t0.ERROR_DESCRIPTION, t0.INBOUND_FILE_VERSION, t0.CREATED_BY, t0.CREATION_DATE, t0.UPDATED_BY, t0.UPDATE_DATE FROM EDF_HEADER_STG_INT t0, EDF_DETAILS_STG_INT t1 WHERE (((t0.FILE_NAME = #file_name) AND (t1.EDF_SERIAL_TYPE = #prod_type)) AND (t1.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER = t0.UNIQUE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER))
    I expect the DB Adapter to retrieve the records for the parameters passed. i.e only those records from details table which matches with the parameter I passes in (t1.EDF_SERIAL_TYPE = #prod_type) . But I see that the DB Adapter retrieves all records from the details table for a particular unique_sequence_number(unique_sequence_number is primary key for headers table and foreign key for details table). Could you pls tell me how can I retrieve only selected records from the details table?
    Regards,
    Meenu

    Yes. When I run this query in DB, I get one record . While defining DB Adapter, I have imported 4 tables and also defined the relationship between the tables. In my case, column unique sequence number is primary key of headers table and foreign key of details table.The above select query is generated by the DB Adapter for the parameters I have passed in.
    My data is as follows:
    Headers table:
    file_name uniq_seq_num
    file_1.xml 220
    Details table
    product_id unique seq num edf_prod_type
    111 220 A
    112 220 B
    113 220
    Now, I call DB Adapter with parameters 'file_1.xml' (file_name)and 'A'(prod_type). I expect the DB adapter to retrieve only one record with product_id 111 in the detailscollection. But I see that the adapter retrieves all records from the details table without considering the value of prod_type.

  • Having issues with patches that require multiple reboots in a task sequence?

    Are you guys having issues doing a build and capture or deployment, while including the recent patches ?
    It looks like another patch is requiring multiple reboots which breaks the task sequence...
    Long story short... the last time I created a .Wim file was in June (with ZTIWindowsUpdate) - it included all the patches as of June 2014. This image has been deployed since then with no problem. All the other monthly patches (07/08/09/10/11/12/01) can be
    installed successfully through the deployment task sequence with no problem.
    Then last week, I decided to create a new .Wim file to include all the patches as of January 2015. In my build and capture step, it exits because one of the updates requires multiple reboot. I checked on the following website and it has not been updated
    since October 22nd : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2894518
    Do any of you experiences issues with a WSUS that requires multiple reboot recently ?
    Thanks!

    As mentioned, the MDT offline updates task will do it. Add it to your build and capture and it will do the work for you using the updates in an update package that you've previously created. Alternatively, use a stand-alone instance of MDT to create your
    image (using a build and capture TS of course) -- this can then use a stand-alone instance of WSUS to install the updates into your image which you then import into ConfigMgr.

  • Issue with memory when trying to do a restore on iPad 2

    I'm had a few issues with my iPad and am trying to do a restore, I start OK but then after a while I get a "can not be restore. The disk you are attempting to use is full" the PC I am using does not have a large C drive and space is limited but I do have a large external drive attached with loads of space.  Is there any method of using the external hard drive when restoring?
    I hope this makes sence, iPad now been down for over a week and issues getting me down.

    The restore must be done within iTunes on your PC while iTunes is running so - No - you cannot restore using the external drive. You might try moving some of the stuff on your C drive to the external drive to free up space and then restore your iPad.

  • Submitting Issues with Podcast Feeds

    Having feed issues. My host feed http://partyfavorz.podbean.com/feed is valid and I can submit it without any problems. However, I don't receive the email confirmation that it has been received and under review. In fact, I can submit it multiple times without iTunes telling me that it has already been submitted. So, I know there is an issue there. My other feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/partyfavorz (which I prefer) and iTunes tells me it's a duplicate feed. So can't submit that one. Both are valid feeds and I'm out of options for submission. Any suggestions?

    My host feed http://partyfavorz.podbean.com/feed is valid and I can submit it without any problems.
    FeedValidator cannot validate this feed because its length exceeds their limits. Attempting to subscribe manually in iTunes (from the 'Advanced' menu) fails. Loading the feed in FireFox is very slow, presumably because of the length, but I also suspect the server is being slow to respond. The feed contains masses of encoded data in the description tags which iTunes will not read and which are bulking the feed up. Evidently iTunes cannot read the feed, and this may be the reason - I can't immediately see anything in the feed to crash it but obviously I can't read every line and as I say FeedValidator doesn't help.
    My other feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/partyfavorz (which I prefer)
    This feed can be read; the FeedValidator report says it is valid but throws up a number of errors and you should look at these.
    and iTunes tells me it's a duplicate feed.
    Not sure why, since it's not in the Store.
    I would suggest, since you say you prefer the feedburner feed, that you look at the Feedvalidator comments and deal with anything which seems necessary. Then change the title of the podcast slightly (you can change it back later) and if possible the feed filename. That will make it look like a different podcast and you may be able to submit it.

  • Serious issues with Podcasts & URLs

    Hi there,
    I'm having some pretty baffling issues as of late. I decided to hook my podcast into feedburner, and that process has proven to be quite easy. Even redirecting iTunes to that URL was fine. But all of a sudden, iTunes has stopped working and cannot connect to feeds or anything of the sort.
    The original XML file iTunes used was "http://wearela.me/lamecast.xml". This was replaced with "http://wearela.me/podcasts.xml". But the replacement URL is only being pointed to by Feedburner.
    From there, there's a 301 redirect on my site from the original "lamecast.xml" to the new Feedburner URL "http://feeds.feedburner.com/WeAreLame". I also kept the original "lamecast.xml" and did a:
    <itunes:new-feed-url>http://feeds.feedburner.com/WeAreLame</itunes:new-feed-url>
    Just to be safe. However, the 301 redirect should alleviate the need for this.
    All of this was working JUST FINE until today. Today, iTunes decided it wanted nothing to do with any of this and started throwing errors at me and other subscribers.
    I've seen two errors so far. The first is the oddest. "There was a problem downloading "The Lamecast from WeAreLa.me". Then it says (and this is the weirdest part) "The URL "http://wearela.mefeed://feeds.feedburner.com/WeAreLame?format=xml" could not be found on this server.
    The thing is, that's NOT a legitimate URL! How iTunes even managed to smush URLs together is beyond me. Nowhere in my code do I even point to the base "wearela.me" url for the podcast. And it's tacking on a completely different URL to it.
    So this is my conundrum. I am completely in the dark and have no idea what to do from here. My feeds validate 100% and everything should work. iTunes has just decided it won't.
    Can anyone help me?

    I've seen this bizzarre combining of URLs before, but I have no idea what causes it; perhaps it's a bug in the Store, but it certainly doesn't make any sense. Unfortunately it means that the standard methods for redirecting a feed won't work as there can be no such URL for you to put a feed with a redirect tag in.
    Given this I'm afraid you have only two options. The first is to abandon the old feed altogether. You should get the old podcast removed from the Store - instructions here - and submit your new feed as an entirely new podcast. You will probably need to make a small change in the title, as a bug in the Store software may tell you that the podcast has already been submitted: and of course you will lose any subscribers or comments.
    The other option is somewhat uncertain. iTunes Support is notoriously unhelpful, often sending back form answers which often don't deal with the actual problem, or referring the questioner to theDiscussions Forum: however it has been known for someone to persuade Support to shift their podcast to a new URL, so it's worth trying. It's probably just a matter of luck you you get. To contact iTunes Support, go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'.

  • Issue with parameter/filter - trying to display null rows

    This is how my data looks in the database
    Order_ID -----   Vendor
    ID123             NULL
    ID234             ABC
    ID456             NULL
    ID001             CDE
    I want to create an SSRS report with a filter for vendors
     *All Vendors should be checked off by default
     *Users should be able to select multiple vendors
    So I started by creating the VendorDataSet, the query looks like
    SELECT VendorName
    FROM Vendor
    WHERE Active = 1
    *This query will return all active vendors stored in my vendor table
      Then, I created my parameter @prmVendor and it looks like:
     -Data Type: Text
    -Allow blank value("")
    -Allow multiples values
    Available Values:
    -Dataset: Vendor
    -Value field: vendor_name
    -Label field: vendor_name
    The main query of the report looks like
    Select Order_ID, Vendor
    FROM Order
    LEFT JOIN Vendors
    ON Order.VendorID = Vendor.ID
    WHERE Vendor IN (@prmVendor)
    So at this point it does what is supposed to do except - that when I run the query with all the vendors selected,
    the query will only return the ones with vendors populated.
    Order_ID -----   Vendor
    ID234             ABC
    ID001             CDE
    I've tried adding the following to my VendorDataSet:
    SELECT VendorName
    FROM Vendor
    WHERE Active = 1
    UNION ALL
    SELECT '' -- I've also tried SELECT NULL
     But when I run the report and look at the list of vendor displayed - it won't show the empty row in the vendor drop down filter
    thus, my main query will ignore the orders with no vendors.
     Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

    So I changed my VendorDataSet to look like this:
    ;WITH cteVendors AS (
    SELECT VendorName
    FROM Vendor
    WHERE Active = 1
    UNION ALL
    SELECT ''
    SELECT (CASE WHEN Vendor IS NULL THEN '' ELSE Vendor END) AS VendorName
    FROM cteVendors
    This allowed me to show an empty box in my drop down filter see link for
    image
    Is there a way to make some changes to my main query so this works? so if the user was to select the blank box the query will return something like :
    Order_ID -----   Vendor
      ID123             NULL
       ID456             NULL

  • Issue with PO Approval (POAPPRV) delegate option

    Hi All,
    I'm working on PO Approval i.e. (POAPPRV) customised workflow. When I'm using forward option for PO approval it is working fine and PO is getting approved.
    But at the same time if i'm using delegate option for the PO approval it is not apporving the PO and workflow is getting stuck at one activity.
    for both process i'm using same set of data.
    Please let m eknow if you have any idea about this issue.
    Thanks,

    Hi Kjetil,
    Release strategy is being used. Configuration for release strategy is given as following.
    RGroup Rcode   Workflow     Agent
    Z6          R1         1                Blank
    Z6          R1             1                Blank
    Z6          R1             1                Blank
    Z6          R1             1                Blank
    Release is sequential.
    For column 'Agent' mentioning position or User is not really useful because we are getting agents through Z table. Reason is: current org structure supports 1 position with multiple users from same department. In our scenario we need to find initiators department then find relevant approval levels for that departemnt. So I cannot mention any position in 'Agent' Column as release code will be locked against one position and one departetment.
    Agents picked through Z table. Table has fields  Agent/ UserID , level, department.
    Logic to pick agents( Object and method created ): 
      When workflow starts, it finds department of the initiator.
      For that department-> find approval levels available(L1, L2,  L3).
      For these levels -> Find Agent mentioned for that level.
      Onece Agents are found for all levels -> Pass them to WF  container.
      In task activity, These agents are passed back to the rule and  the task comes to know which agent it should go to.
    Result : Four workflows start in sequence. When last level releases, only 1st workflow shows COMPLETED status. Rest three hang at level 2. If I see Me29N , release for that item is shown completed. To me it seems triggering of only first workflow is enough for release. Is there any way I can avoid trigerring of other three workflows?
