Installing new job types in WebUI (WCC) fails with EEM E190672 error

Products

• Autosys Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

During the installation of new job types within AutoSys GUI (WCC), the dynamic_object_type.sh script fails with EEM (Embedded Entitlements Manager) authorization errors.

E190672 - Only users of the EEM groups "Commander" or "Administrator" can execute the command.

Symptoms

• Installation script fails to validate user permissions.
• Errors related to application group membership are observed in EEM logs.
• The user attempting the installation belongs to the required groups (e.g., Commander or Administrator) via Dynamic User Groups, but the script does not recognize the membership.

Environment

Products: AutoSys Workload Automation, Embedded Entitlements Manager
Versions: ALL
Plugin Extensions: ALL

Cause

The installation module and the dynamic_object_type.sh program require a Direct Association of the user to the EEM Application Groups (Commander and/or Administrator). This specific module does not currently support membership inheritance through Dynamic User Groups.

Resolution

To resolve the authorization failure, manually assign the required application groups directly to the user identity in EEM:

1. Log in to the EEM UI.
2. From the Application dropdown, select WCC0004.
3. Navigate to the Manage Identities tab.
4. Search for and select the User attempting the installation.
5. In the right-hand pane, navigate to Application Group Membership.
6. Click Search to see available groups.
7. Select and add the Commander and/or Administrator groups directly to the user.
8. Click Save.
9. Re-run the dynamic_object_type.sh installation script.
