Executing BI process within a xaction file

[zivi]

Hi , I've a problem in the path (that's my opinion) of a BI process xaction file that I want to execute in another xaction file.
I receive the following error message:

Debug: SolutionRepository.DEBUG_FILE_PATH - getFile path=/home/alessio/pentaho-demo/pentaho-solutions (org.pentaho.repository.filebased.solution.SolutionRepository)
Errore: RuntimeContext.ERROR_0012 - LActionDefinition per {0} non è stata eseguita con successo (org.pentaho.core.runtime.RuntimeContext)
Errore: SolutionEngine.ERROR_0007 - Esecuzione dell'Action Sequence fallita (org.pentaho.core.solution.SolutionEngine)

The action-definition is:
<action-definition> <component-name>SubActionComponent</component-name>
<action-type>Pentaho BI Process</action-type>
<action-inputs>
<user_id type="string"/>
<mode type="string"/>
<regione type="string"/>
</action-inputs>
<action-outputs>
<url type="string"/>
</action-outputs>
<component-definition>
<solution><![CDATA[samples]]></solution> <path><![CDATA[samples/tilesquare/OLAP/incroci]]></path> <action><![CDATA[nome_serieProdotto(0).xaction]]></action>
</component-definition>
</action-definition>

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I noticed that you have "samples" as a solution name and as the first folder name in the path:

<solution><![CDATA[samples]]></solution> <path><![CDATA[samples/tilesquare/OLAP/incroci]]></path> <action><![CDATA[nome_serieProdotto(0).xaction]]></action>

Do you realy have two folders, called sample? => /home/alessio/pentaho-demo/pentaho-solutions/samples/samples/tilesquare/OLAP/incroci/nome_serieProdotto(0).xaction

If the real path is:
/home/alessio/pentaho-demo/pentaho-solutions/samples/tilesquare/OLAP/incroci/nome_serieProdotto(0).xaction

change the path to:

<path><![CDATA[tilesquare/OLAP/incroci]]></path> <action><![CDATA[nome_serieProdotto(0).xaction]]></action>

All the best,
Ingo

Without samples directory as you stated the problem doesn't disappear.
I can't understand why the path reported in the log is truncated at pentaho-solution....

Here is the code of an action definition that works for me:

<action-definition> 
      <component-name>SubActionComponent</component-name>
      <action-type>Get Country List from xaction</action-type>
      <action-outputs> 
        <country_list_result type="string"/> 
      </action-outputs>
      <component-definition> 
        <solution><![CDATA[solution]]></solution>  
        <path><![CDATA[xactions_helper]]></path>  
        <action><![CDATA[country_security_list.xaction]]></action> 
      </component-definition> 
    </action-definition>

The complete path on the server is: /home/pentaho-demo/solution/xactions-helper/country_security_list.xaction

Maybe there is a problem with the name of your xaction due to the (0)?

Good luck,
Ingo

nothing... I changed the directoy and the name of the files but problem remains... Maybe is a bug of the Pentaho distribution.. now I've installed the versione V1.2.0 build 534 GA

I Tested the following Subaction on your version of the platform and it worked.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<action-sequence>
<title>Subaction Test XACTION</title>
<version>1</version>
<logging-level>DEBUG</logging-level>

<inputs/>

<resources/>

<actions>
<action-definition>
<component-name>SubActionComponent</component-name>
<action-type>Pentaho BI Process</action-type>
<action-inputs/>
<action-outputs/>
<component-definition>
<solution><![CDATA[samples]]></solution>
<path><![CDATA[getting-started/helloworld]]></path>
<action><![CDATA[HelloWorld.xaction]]></action>
</component-definition>
</action-definition>
</actions>
</action-sequence>

Let me know if this helps at all

I've installed the version 1.2.1.625-GA of the pentaho platform and I've changed the path of my xaction files from samples/tilesquare/OLAP/incroci to samples/tilesquare/analisi. Now it works ok. Maybe the problem was on the depth of the path?
Anyway thanks very much.
