Java-backed script failed with BadCredentialsException

marctsg

Hi all. I'm working on a script which is meant to automatically update some fields on a specified user via a web script. I have the script set to require admin authentication, and I am able to step through the script so I know I am passing the script based authentication. The next step is to retrieve the person by name using

serviceRegistry.getPersonService().getPerson(userName);‍

however, I fail with a BadCredentialsException every time.

Below is a stack trace, formatting from the web script error page:

I assumed that as an admin I have the privileges to access this service. Why is the runtime rejecting my credentials?

As an aside, if I knew the uuid of the user node, could I just use the node service to update any properties by instantiating a NodeRef for it?

Tried just creating a noderef and using the NodeService to update it, same error.

The strange thing is that this script is really a dual-purpose script which is supposed to allow creation and update of users. The create portion works perfectly.

This piece of code causes the bad credentials error too, why ??

private void traiter(String pRef) {
      NodeRef srcNode = new NodeRef(pRef);
      NodeRef destNode = mscSearchService
            .getStaticNodeRef(MscSearchService.FOLDER_TRAITER_NAME);
      try
      {
         fileFolderService.move(srcNode, destNode, null);
      } catch (Exception e)
      {
         throw new IllegalArgumentException(
               "Traiter action failed. Error moving file: " + pRef);
      }
      StoreRef lStoreRef = new StoreRef(StoreRef.PROTOCOL_WORKSPACE,
            "SpacesStore");
      // plus efficace :
      // +PATH:"/sys:system/sys:people/*"
      // +@cm\:userName:"fantoni"
      authenticationService.authenticate("admin", "admin".toCharArray());
      System.out.println("searchService: " + searchService);
      ResultSet lResultSet = searchService.query(lStoreRef,
            SearchService.LANGUAGE_LUCENE, "@cm\\:userName:\"ffournel\"");
      NodeRef person = lResultSet.getNodeRef(0);
      NodeRef homeFolder = (NodeRef) nodeService.getProperty(person,
            org.alfresco.model.ContentModel.PROP_HOMEFOLDER);
      lResultSet = searchService.query(lStoreRef,
            SearchService.LANGUAGE_LUCENE, "PATH:\"/app:company_home\"");
      NodeRef companyHome = lResultSet.getNodeRef(0);
      Map<String, Object> map = scriptService.buildDefaultModel(person,
            companyHome, homeFolder, null, null, null);
      System.out.println("person: " + person);
      System.out.println("companyHome: " + companyHome);
      System.out.println("homeFolder: " + homeFolder);
      System.out.println("map: " + map);
      scriptService.executeScript(
            "classpath:alfresco/extension/scripts/msc-actions.js", map);
