Using Fix And Go

Fix And Go allows you to edit a script in a Web Tools session and then test your modifications in the Siebel application without closing the client or recompiling the script. This feature saves you time in script development, testing, and debugging. You can use Fix And Go only with server script.

To use Fix And Go

  1. In the Workspace Dashboard, open the Workspace that you want.

  2. Click Toggle Script Debugger (the bug icon) on the application banner or select Toggle Script Debugger from the Debug menu to open the Server Script Debugger window.

  3. Click Start on the Server Script Debugger toolbar to start the application in debug mode.

    For more information about the Server Script Debugger toolbar, see Accessing Siebel Server Script Debugger.

  4. Log in to the application, navigate to the view which uses the server side script and verify that the server script is working as it should be.

  5. Now in Web Tools, change the server script in the Script Editor and save the changes.

    Notice that this enables the Restart button on the Server Script Debugger toolbar.

  6. Click Restart on the Server Script Debugger toolbar.

    This restarts the target application, navigating the user to either the login page (if Default Login is False) or the view in Step 4 (if Default Login is True).

    Note: Default Login works with employee facing applications (like Call Center) and without any Single Sign-On configuration or custom login page. Default Login expects that the AllowAnonUsers component parameter is set to FALSE for components.

    For more information about all the settings you can configure for the Script Editor, see Setting Options for eScript and Siebel Script Editor Toolbar.
