Using Powershell in LiveCycle Workbench

Hello Everyone,
I am attempting to revamp a daily process that we do at my job. What I want to do is set up a workflow in workbench which will walk the user through the process step by step. As the user goes through the steps I want them to check the item off and then i want workbench to execute a powershell script or Batch file which will complete that part of the process. Once that script is run, the user can move on to the next step in the process. Is this something I can do? And if not can anyone recomend a software that can?
Thanks in advance,
sgarciacode

Hello Steve,
Yes sorry that is correct, I would be writing the process in workbench and the user would be using workspace. Thank you for the advice, I tried using that and the problem I am having is setting the directory that the .bat file is in. Can I run .bat files that are not on the LiveCycle Workbench Server? For example, I want to run a .bat file in another shared network drive.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\Documents and Settings\\sgarciacode\\My Documents\\CONTROL.BAT");
When I try running this it uses the default workbench path. So when I try running this, it says that the file does not exist.
String[] command = { "cmd.exe", "/C", "Start", "CONTROL.BAT" };
                Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
                Process p = r.exec(command);
                p.waitFor();
Also I am not to familiar with the Webservice Foundation Service, could you please provide an example of how to use this or a link to where I could read more about it?
Thanks for the help.

LiveCycle Workbench ES2 - "Java(TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working" Error

Hi,
I am getting this error when I try to create a new process o open an existing process.
"Java(TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working"
The only option is to click on a "Close" button and end the LC Workbench ES2 program.
Also, when I try to open an existing form, it displays 'garbage' - a screenfull of control unrecognizable characters - instead of the form itself.
When this error comes up, I also get a pop-up window with a list of log entries / errors (please see attached: Java Platform SE binary has stopped working.jpg)
Environment:
Windows Vista Ultimate running on HP Desktop (e9107c Intel CORE 2 Quad Processor withy 8 GB RAM, 750GB HDD)
Downloaded and installed the Trial Version of LiveCycle ES2 package (Windows JBoss version)
The LiveCycle ES2 server is installed properly and is working with the following services. Are there any missing services?
LiveCycle Output ES2, LiveCycle Rights Management ES2, LiveCycle PDF Generator ES2 Evaluation, LiveCycle Process Management ES2, LiveCycle Workspace ES2, Applications and Services, LiveCycle ContentServices ES2, LiveCycle Forms ES2
I already had Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.2 and the associated LiveCycle Designer instaleld prior to installing the Trial of LC ES2.
Basesd on the installation insttructions, I deleted the Designer ES from my Acrobat Pro Extended and instaleld the LC Workbench ES2.
Now I don't see a seprate entry for the LC Designer ES2 anymore on my Start >> Programs.
And th newly installed LC Workbench is not working
Any help in making the workbench 'work' is greatly appreciated.
Are there any tests we can do to troubleshoot this?
Thanks.

Here is some additional information that may be helpful in identifying the cause for this problem.
Here is the Exact ERROR :
Java (TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Button: "Close Program".
On clicking that button, the error window goes away; the main LC WB ES2 program also closes; but a long error window appears. The full screenshot was attached in my original message. The top few lines are reproduced below.

========Here is teh cutrrent status ===================
Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES2 is working properly: Good
Adobe LiveCycle Workbench ES2 has ONE problem
1. Program Starts properly
2. I am able to login to the LCES2 server
3. I am able to Browse and select sample projects
4. I am ble to create an Application, a folder, and a Form
5. I am able to invoke the LC Designer ES2 from within Workbench (while creating a form)
6. I am able to "invoke" an existinmg sample process in a web browser (not within workbench environment)
The main problem is...
I am NOT able to create a new process or open existing process using workbench.
Since it gives Java Platform SE error, I checked the versions of various Java Run Time Environments on my pc.
Properties of javaw.exe in different folders:

2.2 workbench
Folder: Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycleWorkbench ES2\workbench\jre\bin\
File Name: javaw.exe: Java Platform SE Binary

I tried to use the same versions of JRE in all these folders; that didn't work..
I hope someone can throw more light on this and find the real cause.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Adobe LiveCycle Workbench -- How to generate XML from SQL Server 2008 R2

Hello,
Please let me know if anyone has the solution to generate XML in adobe livecycle workbench and generate a dynamic PDF form using that XML.
Regards,
Himanshu

Yes, XML could be generated as here : http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/building-xml.html
You can merge this XML with the form template and generate the form.
Hope this helps.
Thnaks,

What is the right Community for Questions about Adobe LiveCycle Workbench?

We purchased Abode LiveCycle Premium Print. It included a product called StreamServe which we planned to use to merge xml templates, data, and call a StreamServe webservice to generate a pdf file. It seems theStreamServe webservices are not up to that job but I suspect that Abode LiveCycle Workbench may be able to do what we want.
Bottom line: I can't determine the proper community\newsgroup to send the above issue to. Help!

LiveCycle Workbench ES2 keeps freezing up

I have Adobe LiveCycle Workbench ES2 Version: 9.5.0.0.20100908.1.247189 installed on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine with 8GB of RAM and it has been getting really bad about freezing up. At first, it would just get hung up every once in a while, but now it freezes practically every time that I make a process change. My sole job is using Workbench, so this problem is seriously decreasing my productivity. Does anyone know what the problem may be? When it get non-responsive and I have to force quit the application, I see the following stack trace:
JVM terminated. Exit code=-805306369

If anyone has any ideas why this may be happening, please let me know. If you need more information about my installation, just ask.
Thanks.

Try to increase the workbench memory management settings:
Goto:

Change the 3rd and 4th lines to below:
-Xms256m
-Xmx1024m
Hope it helps.

Using Powershell Script Run simple query in MS Access 2007 and export the results of query to Excel

Hi Experts,
I have a Access 2007 DB file and 2 Big tables inside that (bigger than the size that can be easily handled by MS Excel 2007).
My requirement is automate using powershell scripts the below things.
1. Create a SQL query in Access DB and save that in access DB
2. Run the saved query and export the result in excel sheet where I can create the charts and Pivots. Thanks in advance
Prajesh

Do you have to use the Access query, couldn't you just recreate the query in Powershell? Here's a link with good info that references an existing script for querying an Access database:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2009/08/13/hey-scripting-guy-can-i-query-a-microsoft-access-database-with-a-windows-powershell-script.aspx
Once you have your dataset you can pipe it to
Export-Csv -NoType c:\pathtofile\output.csv

Hi Basva,
Do you want to provision two search service applications in single farm?
Commonly, only one search service application is needed in a farm for Search function.

Creating a Scheduled Task using PowerShell v4

So here is my question. I'm trying/wanting to create a scheduled task using PowerShell v4 on Server 2012R2. I want to task to run on the 1st day of every month. The parameter for -Monthly -Day is not available. I need to use PowerShell
to create the Scheduled Task because the Task will be running with a group Managed Service Account credentials so the Scheduled Task can not be created via the Task Scheduler GUI.

How to add a certificate to IIS global "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell?

Hi, been surfing the web for an example on how to add a certificate to the "global" IIS "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell but to no luck. I already have code in place on how to tie / associate a specific website with a specific cert but not how
to add the new .cer file using the "Complete Certificate Request..." wizard using PowerShell.... I dont expect the final code to become published but if someone had an idea on howto integrate / get an entry point on where to interact between the "Server Certificate"
list in IIS and POSH I would be super happy! :|
I am runnign IIS on a Windows 2008R2 x64 Standard Edition if that helps..... of course, I would saddle for an CLI if there is no other way, but POSH is of course the way to go! :)
Thanks for the help in advance guys, take care!
br4tt3

Hi and thanks for the suggestions!
Although it comes close, the suggested code example points on howto import / incorporate .pfx files - I am getting fed by .cer files which I need to add into the IIS console using POSH.
I tried explore the IIS.CertObj object but was not able to work out if this one could be used for importing / adding .cer files into IIS! However, launching the following command from a POSH console with Import-Module Webadministration already
loaded into that shell;
$certMgr = New-Object -ComObject IIS.CertObj returns the following error message:
New-Object : Cannot load COM type IIS.CertObj

might be that I am lacking some IIS components to be in place to be able to automate some parts of the IIS - as suggested by the IIS.CertObj object listed in the example..... I will get back if I can track down which component needs to be added to be
able to reference the IIS.CertObj object.

How can I assign an icon to a folder using Powershell?

How can I assign an icon to a folder using Powershell?

I'm trying to make a script that goes through a folder recursively, checks for every folder if it's name is "template", and if so it changes the icon of that folder to an icon
I chose.
I searched for an answer here, and I've only managed to find a way to assign an icon to a shortcut, but not to an existing file.
Thanks in advance (:

How can I query a https website used to display the status of an application using Powershell?

Maximo Vizcaino

thats where you are going to check what it is supposed to be.
lets say your page shows as SSOL Status : running you
probably want to use "if($totalstrng.ToLower().contains("ssqlL status
: running"))". its
checking if the html page contains the string you are looking for.
you might want to print $totalstrng
and see what you need to look for.
usign XMLHttp
or XML object as mentioned by JRV might be easier and faster way.

How can I find what scom group a specific server belongs to using powershell?

Environment: SCOM 2007 r2
Server in question: Running Windows 2003 Std. (yes I know this sounds crazy)
Why do I need this: I noticed at the console level we have had server unexpected shutdown events which are not generating email notifications.
Source shows: Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition
Alert Rule: Windows Shutdown Unexpectedly
From what I see these are all windows 2003 server Std edition systems. I did a track and trace using our exchange tracking system which confirmed the alerts were not being emailed. Not sure if there is a better approach for this, but not being a sql
expert (however I do have someone I can leverage) I am trying to see if I can somehow extract this information using powershell.
Secondary general question: How can I find out the current size of our scom 2007 database and the number of objkects\servers being monitored? This is prep work for a migration over to 2012.
Thanks in advance for the help!
