I have an Asynchronous Task that runs perfectly on Tomcat and Jetty on my system. However, when I deploy it on Websphere Application Server.on another system, The Asynchronous Task errors:

TeamOperationCanceledException: CRJAZ6053E The 'Request Build' operation cannot be completed. Permission is required to complete the operation.

How do I determine which user is running the Asynchronous Task?

Hi Andrew,

looking at AbstractAutoScheduledTask, it has the following method:

public final String getRunAsUserId() {
	
        return Contributor.ADMIN;
	
    }

Which is called as part of the task context setup.

I ran a dummy test in a task, within the "runTask()" method:

IRepositoryItemService repoService = getService(IRepositoryItemService.class);
IContributorHandle contribHandle = getAuthenticatedContributor();
IContributor contrib = (IContributor) repoService.fetchItem(contribHandle, IRepositoryItemService.COMPLETE);
System.out.println("User ID" + contrib.getUserId() + " name: " + contrib.getName());

and it printed out in my console:

User IDADMIN name: ADMIN

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jorge.
