Arbortext Publishing Engine - Accessing Activation files from network share

[vigneshj]

Hi,

We trigger APP sub-process in Arbortext Publishing Engine through activation files. When we place the activation files in local drive, PE sub-process is running properly. But when we place activation files in network share PE couldn't be able to take that Job.

Can we have some suggestions on that.

Note:

1. We are running TOMCAT server as a domain user which has all rights to the network server path

2. We are launching PE Sub-process as a domain user which has all rights to the server path. When input files are placed in network share, PE sub-process is able to take those files and process those files. But the activation files, files given in <input> and <output> tags of activation files are not identified by PE.

 Hi,

What version of the program are you running?

[vigneshj]

Hi Vladimir,

We are using PE version 8.0.2.0.

Thanks,

You might need to use a mapped network drive instead of \\SERVER\FOLDER\FILE notation.

Yes Gareth,

We have investigated this and noted that File object used in enterprise JavaScript library is not accessing the files from network drive. So instead of mapping network drive, we modified the coding related to File object with Perl and now it is working fine.

Thanks,
