Hello all,

I have wriiten a Java scheduler which sends an email to some list of users using ActionService for mail.

The code runs fine and sends email for Alfresco 3.2.r EE but fails for Alfresco 3.4.3 EE

Following is the exception stacktrace from alfresco.log

Any one have idea if there is any API changes for Email Executer?
I could not understand why it show "User does not exists: System"

Thanks for any info.

Some Updates:

I was using following statement to set system user for executing the Job

authenticationComponent.setSystemUserAsCurrentUser();
‍‍‍

And here is the issue. It could not find the System user.

So I tried to execute Job with a user having admin rights.

authenticationComponent.setCurrentUser("admin");
‍‍‍

And it works fine.


But I am still not sure why it does not find System user with

tauthenticationComponent.setSystemUserAsCurrentUser();
‍‍

Thanks
