It looks like what i found is a temporary solution.Everytime i edit the activity it resets the mime type to text/plain.
could any body tell me how to provide line breaks in text/plain mime type for user notification activity in bpel.

Hi perezco,
As Piotr said, this can be done through .NET programming in a Script Task or a Script Component. For the code snippet, please refer to the following thread:

In addition, there are also third party SSIS components that provide such a functionality such as:

When I click on a link in an email (I use Thunderbord) it no longer opens a tab in Firefox for that web page. This started about the time I installed FF v.4. Any ideas?

I've done some looking but have not found anything about this problem.
More details --, if I get an email (Thunderbird, latest version) that has a link in it, it will be highlighted but now when you click on it to go to that web page or site nothing happens. I've looked through HELP and tried various option settings and also thought it might have something to do with an add-on but I have not found any way to turn this feature back on -- that is, be able to click on the link in the email and open that web page.
I can copy the link location and paste it in the navigation tool bar and go there, it's just another step.
Any ideas?
Thanks ---

I seem to have solved my own problem. When I disabled the add-on "Tab Renamizer" everything started working fine.

Batch file execution using user defined activity

Can anyone please explain me what is the structure of the user defined activity in order to execute batch file. I've read like 10 post about this problem in this forum but nothing seems to work. So to finally clear it out...
I have simple batch file d:\test_dir\test.bat that has only one line in it "echo this is test>>test.txt"
what should i put in the user defined activity setting?
COMMAND = ?
PARAMETER_LIST = ?
RESULT_CODE = ?
SCRIPT = ?
SUCCESS_THRESHOLD = ?
i have the setting in the runtime.properties file to:
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.FTP.security_constraint = DISABLED
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.Shell.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.SQLPlus.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.OMBPlus.security_constraint = DISABLED

Did you read this blog?

What error do you get? Did you stop/start the runtime service after changing the parameter file?

Line breaks in emails when using Gmail

*The problem arises because the iPhone uses "Plain Text" to send emails.*
*When using gmail, gmail automatically inserts line breaks in "Plain Text" emails every 78 characters, the reason why you see the breaks when unexpected.*
*See: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?id=4d1cecc1aab102ef&hl=en*
*To fix this problem:*
*1. Apple can allow us to send mail with Rich Text support from iOS devices OR*
*2. Google has to change the line breaks setting so that Plain text flows (and isn't broken) <-- this option is probably more realistic*
*I have tried from a hotmail account, sending email as plain text doesn't have line breaks imposed like the gmail account, but rather "flows".*
*If you want gmail to add a setting to disable line breaks in plain text emails:*
*Suggest the feature here:*
*http://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=suggestions.cs*
*I chose these categories:*
*- I have another idea*
*- Sending and receiving*
*- - - Composing and delivery*
*- - - - Sending options*
*-For comments: Configure or disable plain text wrap length.*

I am having the same problem with an IMAP/SMTP account. It was a GMail account, I switched it to using the GMail auto setup and haven't had any issues.
But under the standard IMAP/SMTP setting almost 1/3 of all messages were showing no content.
Though I don't recall exactly - I think most of them were sent while I was on 3G, and it otherwise works fine on WiFi.

When I paste a URL into an email body (Yahoo mail), just the text is pasted rather that the live web link I want represented. How can I change this so a pasted URL is shown as a live link in the email body?

The question says it all!

Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text on the "Compose New Mail page" there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).

* Can We Send Email Notifications Only using User Task in Oracle BPM ?? *

Hi All,
Can we send any email notification to initiator, only from Oracle BPM User / Human task without using any notification activity.
Is it possible to send email notifications using BPM User task alone.
Any Help appreciated.
Regards
Satya

Hi Satya,
To send an email to the person who initiated the work item instance in the process when the instance reaches a human task:
1. Ensure that the id of person who initiated the instance is stored in the process predefined variable called "creator".
2. In the Interactive activity's input data mapping, map this "creator" process predefined variable to the corresponding "creator" attribute in the human task's execData.
3. Open the human task -> click the "Notification" tab -> click the "+" icon in the upper right -> on the new row added to the bottom of the list, leave the task status dropdown set to "Assign" and change the recipent (the middle column) to "Initiator".

Sending email to user using the notification template in OIM 11g

Hi all
I have created a Notification Template using web console in OIM 11g.
Iam able to access the contents from notification template in my java code.
But iam not able to find the correct api's to send email to user using the notification template
(like tcEmailNotificationUtil using this class we can connect to email template created in design console and creating IT resourse we can send email to user using the method sendEmail).
Waiting for your help and pointers
Thanks and Regards
Bipin patil

Thanks GP!.
But i have the same doubt here.
"The Notification Event is defined through a XML file that must be loaded into MDS database." - in which path and in what name it should be.
Because under /metadata/iam-features-notification, i couldnt see any event Xml present. I thought atleast we could see the existing OOB notification template's event xml files.
Please let me know if you are aware.

Workflow/Notification email - Body is blank

Hi all
I am using a workflow notification in MDM to send an email to a user. The email arrives as intended - correct address, correct subject line, - but the problem is the body of the email is blank. I have specified a message text (in Visio, under the notification property E-Mail Body) but the email arriving has no message in it.
Can anyone explain why this might be? Has anyone experienced this problem before?
Many Thanks
Edd

Hi ED,
Which MDM version you are currently working upon?
As I also implemented this Notify step stencil in my workflow and it works fine with the correct address and subject line.
Kindly follow the below steps correctly and you should get the desired result.
For Notify Step: In mds.ini file
Only Server Name need to be mentioned in MDS.ini file.
server name =IP Address
Prefer to use IP Address of the Mail server instead Name.
Sample example of the body of the email:
If you wish to send the JobId,Job name ,StepID,Stepname in the mail then write the body of teh mail as below
BODY: JOBID: %JOBID%
            JOBNAME: %JOBNAME&
            STEPID: %STEPID%
            STEPNAME: %STEPNAME%
                                %RECORDS%
Kindly follow the below links for further help on this

Send Welcome Email to New User using the Scripting Agent

Hi
I require some assistance please. I have found a number of scripts online to send a Welcome Email to new users whereby they make use of the ScriptingAgent.xml file.
I like the way the scripts have been configured and have mashed up one or two scripts together for my desired result however when testing in my lab (Exchange 2013) I have found tow problems.
The problems are:
1. When creating a new user and mailbox (New-Mailbox) via the ECP the script throws out an error which I will post later in this post. The mailbox is created fine but it does not send out a welcome email. When a user is created in ADUC and then a mailbox
is created (Enable-Mailbox) the welcome email is sent out correctly.
2. In the script i have a section to check for NewUser00 in the HTML file and replace that with the Users Name and Surname, however this does not work correctly, I just come up blank:
The Script:

Variable text is blank in emails when using Scheduled Task to email event log notifications

I am trying to use powershell to email notification when a user account gets locked. I am running the script from a server 2008 domain controller.
I have tried multiple scripts and I have the same issue every time. The script works fine when I run it directly from the powershell command line window.
However whenever I try running the exact same scripts from an event-triggered scheduled task, the script runs, however any content that generated from a variable is not added to the email. It is just left blank and ignored.
I have tried adding lots of permissions including domain administrator group membership to the account runs the task from and it doesn't include all the expected text unless I run it from the built-in domain administrator account.
The task runs and the email is sent, but the email is missing all the content generated by variables.
How can this be fixed?
Here is an example script.
$AccountLockOutEvent = Get-EventLog -LogName "Security" -InstanceID 4740 -Newest 1
$LockedAccount = $($AccountLockOutEvent.ReplacementStrings[0])
$AccountLockOutEventTime = $AccountLockOutEvent.TimeGenerated
$AccountLockOutEventMessage = $AccountLockOutEvent.Message
$messageParameters = @{
Subject = "Account Locked Out: $LockedAccount"
Body = "Account $LockedAccount was locked out on $AccountLockOutEventTime.`n`nEvent Details:`n`n$AccountLockOutEventMessage"
From = "[email protected]"
To = "[email protected]"

By variable text I mean everything that it generates by using a variable such as the user's name ($LockedAccount)
and everything else such as $AccountLockOutEventTime and everything else that is generated from
a variable.
Nothing like that appears in the email only hard coded text.
I am not running it remotely. I am logged directly onto the domain controller and I tried giving
the account that is used to run the task more and more permissions including domain administrator group membership with the same result.
When I run the exact same script on the same domain controller locally via the powershell CLI all of the info appears.
This is the info when the email is generated by running the script directly from the powershell CLI:

BPM human task actionable user notification email not working

Hi ,
I am triing to send actionable email notification to assignees through the notification tab of the human task. The email settings in the em console has done fine so that I am getting the notification email without any fail.
But the problem over here is the actionable buttons / links (Like Approve or Reject ) are not there inside the email body.
I have checked the make notification actionable check box in jdev human task as well as configured the actionable email address in the server em console.Still the email body is not having the action items.
email body is here
Task Notification PendingUser Notification requires your attention.
Access this task in the Workspace Application
<PendingUser Notification > above is the task title.
Please suggest
many many thanks
Tuku

Hi All,
I got the solution for it. Now the assignee is able to get the actionable email.
the mistake i did is during the human task notification tab configuration I have put separate email id in the recipient column of first row.You need to do is ,choose Assignees from the drop down value , check the check box make notification actionable, then set the proper email in the email attribute property of the assigned user (user creation time).
Thanks

How to change URL/link in cFolders email notification

Hi Folks,
We are on cFolders 4.5 accessed via Enterprise Portal. When a notification is generated (either manually or via a status transition), the email contains a URL link related to the cfolder object the notification pertains to. This URL points to the cFolders BSP application. How do we point this to the portal? We want all user to access cFolders via the portal and not BSP. Any way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Lashan

Hello Lashan,
could you please tell me the note number?
Here we also would like to implement the same.
Thanks in advance,

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)
I want in attachment, not in the body mail.

I think your only solution is to zip the image files first and then attach them.
Read this from a site I found:
Sending Graphical Attachments -- When you attach a graphical image to your message, the recipient of your message sees the image inline (that is, in the body of the message) if her email client supports inline display. ("Take Control of Email with Apple Mail" contains a table listing the capabilities of popular Mac and PC email clients.) If a client does not support inline display (or the recipient has turned off the inline display option), the file appears as an attachment that must be opened in a separate program.
On the one hand, an inline image is easier for the recipient to see - all she has to do is look at it. On the other hand, inline images can be frustrating to scroll through. If you do not wish to send a graphical image inline, you must compress the file before attaching it - Mail, sadly, lacks a built-in compression option, though fortunately for Panther users, the Finder offers Zip compression without requiring a separate application.
Note that when you compose a new message, Mail always shows attachments in the body of your message. You can manually drag them somewhere else, but many email clients display all attachments in a separate list, regardless of where you place them in the message body.
If you paste an image into a message or drag & drop an image from another window (say, a Web browser), Mail converts the raw image data to an attachment in TIFF format. On the other hand, if you drag & drop the icon of an image file (or use the Attach button to locate the file using the file browser), Mail leaves the attached image in its original format. This difference is significant, because although most email clients can display JPEG images just fine, support for TIFF - especially in non-Mac email clients - is less common. If possible, I suggest attaching image files as opposed to pasting or dragging in raw image data.
