PM19295: Corruption of Strategy cache when calling copySiteFrameworkDocum ent in custom workflow action.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When running the determining if the first stage of a Workflow
  is Draft it is possible with specific authoring template and
  workflow settings to set the current thread as a render mode
  thread during the workflowing of an item.
  
  If custom workflow actions exist within this workflow which
  perform copySiteFrameworkDocument operations the result is the
  copy will be referenced in the Strategy cache in the place of
  the original item. This corruption of the strategy cache can be
  surfaced by any number of API calls referencing the original
  item.
  

Local fix

• Corrected the logic which erroneously permanently modifies the
  workflowing thread to be a render mode thread.
  

Problem summary

• When running the determining if the first stage of a Workflow
  is Draft it is possible with specific authoring template and
  workflow settings to set the current thread as a render mode
  thread during the workflowing of an item.
  
  If custom workflow actions exist within this workflow which
  perform copySiteFrameworkDocument operations the result is the
  copy will be referenced in the Strategy cache in the place of
  the original item. This corruption of the strategy cache can be
  surfaced by any number of API calls referencing the original
  item.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed the API loophole allowing the Strategy Cache to be
  permanently put into read only mode.
  

Temporary fix
