Clarity

Hi, I'm trying to read the Timesheets for a certain resource but no results :(  I'm using SoapUI to test the web service call, the message is:  
   
         
      xxxxxxxx
      yyyyyyy
         
   
   
         
     
     
           
           
                  2009-01-01
                  myResourceName
           
     
         
      but always i'm getting: Error getting response; java.lang.Exception: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out   I tried using other web service call, and I get the response OK.  Anyone know how can I solve it?  Thanks!  

Hi,         Please try from XOG Client, to read or write timesheet for a particular resource. if you are not installed XOG Client from your machine, just use the below URL Which dave already provided for us.     http:// : /niku/app?action=xog.client   if ssl enabled   https:// : /niku/app?action=xog.client     and also attached sample read and write file which is used to read or write a timesheet for a particular resource Message Edited by senthil on 09-24-2009 02:17 PM [left]

Thanks Senthil and Sundar,  The problem is that i was using   http://www.niku.com/xog/Object instead of http://www.niku.com/xog/ as xog namespace. When I change this, It didn't throw Read timeout anymore...now I get "no rights" :P  Thank again for your time!    

Sergio,  Have u got the XOG Administrator Global Rights?Cheers,Sundar        

Sergio,  Hope you have done the Xog invoke via SOAP as mentioned in the Tech guide.  How to Invoke XOG Directly Using SOAP?

The following steps describe the general process for invoking XOG directly using SOAP:

1. Call Login to establish a session.
admin admin
where Login Input elements are:
Login
The log in request main body element. Login returns a SessionID that you may use in subsequent requests.
Username
The name of the user doing the work.
Password
The password for the user.
[session id]

2)   Invoke the request using the SessionID. [session id]    where Request Input Elements are:
SessionID
The authentication string.NikuDataBus
The Write Object request's main body element.
When making multiple requests with the same SessionID (such as when an external process wakes up at defined intervals) the SessionID may time out. This is the equivalent of a Logout request. To establish a new SessionID, log in again. The session timeout duration is the same as that set for web browser user sessions; you can configure this setting from the System Options in the Administrator Tool.

3. Call Logout to invalidate the SessionID and close the session.
[session id]
where Logout Input elements are:
SessionID
The authentication string that identifies the session to be invalidated.Logout
The Logout request main body element.  Cheers,Sundar

Same problem.
I have the following code:

<!-- Log into XOG and get a session ID -->

<soap:invoke endpoint="${XOGURL}/niku/xog" var="auth">


<soap:message>



<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"




xmlns:xog="http://www.niku.com/xog">




<soapenv:Header />




<soapenv:Body>





<xog:Login>






<xog:Username>${clarityUser}</xog:Username>






<xog:Password>${claritypwd}</xog:Password>





</xog:Login>




</soapenv:Body>



</soapenv:Envelope>


</soap:message>

</soap:invoke>

<!--


Checking wheter a sessionID is returned. If not, it means that Login


was unsuccessful

-->

<gel:set asString="true"


select="$auth/SOAP-ENV:Envelope/SOAP-ENV:Body/xog:SessionID/text()"


var="sessionID" />

<core:choose>


<core:when test="${sessionID == null}">



<gel:log level="ERROR">Couldn't Log in. Check the username/password



</gel:log>


</core:when>


<core:otherwise>



<gel:log>Log in Ok</gel:log>



<gel:log>SessionID: ${sessionID}</gel:log>


</core:otherwise>

</core:choose>

the login appears correctly

The script follows:

<!-- ottengo l'id del timesheet -->


<gel:log>Timesheet id: ${gel_objectInstanceId}</gel:log>






<!-- recuepero i timesheet approved-->


<gel:parse var="leggi">





<NikuDataBus xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/nikuxog_read.xsd">




<Header version="6.0.11" action="read" objectType="timeperiod" externalSource="NIKU"/>




<Query>





<Filter name="status" criteria="EQUALS">4</Filter>







</Query>



</NikuDataBus>




</gel:parse>


<gel:set asString="true" select="$leggi" var="cosa_chiedo"/>                                                                                                                           


<gel:log>Request:: ${cosa_chiedo}</gel:log>





<!-- Inoltro richiesta -->


<soap:invoke endpoint="${XOGURL}/niku/xog" var="runresult">



<soap:message>




<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" 







xmlns:xog="http://www.niku.com/xog">





<soapenv:Header>






<xog:Auth>







<xog:SessionID>${sessionID}</xog:SessionID>






</xog:Auth>





</soapenv:Header>





<soapenv:Body>






<gel:include select="$leggi"/>





</soapenv:Body>




</soapenv:Envelope>



</soap:message>


</soap:invoke>


<gel:set asString="true" select="$runresult" var="write_status"/>                                                                                                                           


<gel:log>TimePeriods Approved: ${write_status}</gel:log>





<!--  per ogni time time entry scrivo codice progetto e ETC -->


<gel:forEach select="$runresult/soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Body/NikuDataBus/TimePeriods//TimePeriod//TimeSheets//TimeSheet//TimeSheetEntries//TimeSheetEntry" var="tm_row">



<gel:log>TtimesheetEntry Approved: ${tm_row}</gel:log> 
...

The log "TimePeriods Approved: ${wr...}" does not appear in the result.
By the way I have a log where I am supposed to write a sentence for each timesheet entry.
The resutl is 18 pages in the log with:

"TimesheetEntry Approved: : [TimeSheetEntry: null]"


copy and paste whathever else xog in the parse tag I see the result,
running:

<NikuDataBus xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/nikuxog_read.xsd">




<Header version="6.0.11" action="read" objectType="timeperiod" externalSource="NIKU"/>




<Query>





<Filter name="status" criteria="EQUALS">4</Filter>







</Query>



</NikuDataBus>

I have correct result both via URL and Desktop XOG Client.

CANNOT FIND A WAY TO GET THE TIME PERIOD VIA GEL SCRIPT USING XOG.
HELP!!!!!
