We do it with the multiple filter method here as well ($SERVER$ like "d%") ($SERVER$ like "t%") ($SERVER$ like "p%")
In order to create the filters in the beginning we did the export to normal def file and search/replace the SOAP URL Fred -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of LJ Longwing Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2008 11:29 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: How to change host for SOAP set-field action? This does actually work if you export to XML instead of DEF format, that's how we do it, the alternative that I'm planning on implementing here is to have a copy of each filter that fires on each environment, so if you have 1 filter, and 3 env's, you would have 3 filters, each with a run-if statement something like $SERVER$ = 'env1.longname', that way each filter would exist on all environments, but only the one for that environment would fire, and you wouldn't need to export/import when you get to your new server to get a filter functioning. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Hicox Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2008 10:20 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: How to change host for SOAP set-field action? Hello everyone: I have a rather large collection of filters that call various SOAP webservices as set fields actions. In our dev environment, the SOAP services run on, say: devmachine.domain.com In our test environment, they're on testmachine.domain.com In our production environment, prodmachine.domain.com When the time comes to move our filters from one environment to another, we have a problem. If we use migrator, or if we just use import/export, the problem is the same: the filters still try to call webservices on the same host once they are ported into the new environment. The only solution appears to be to open each filter individually, reload a WSDL which specifies the new hostname, and remap each of the inputs and outputs. This process is time consuming, and highly prone to error. Does anyone know a method to make this change en masse? I had thought to try to export all of the filters with SOAP calls, then search/replace the hostname string. THIS WILL NOT WORK. thanks in advance everyone, -Andrew _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
