  • 1.  Unable to use wildcard in EVNT Object

    Posted Sep 30, 2016 01:22 PM
    Hi all,

    I have made a workflow, within this workflow there is a JOBS windows, the JOBS windows is used for reading some information from a VARA STATIC object that contains 4 columns.

    I am using the following code in the preprocess tab of windows job :
    I parse the VARA object and I trigger some other jobs on the files found  depending on the ACTION (column 2)
    BZP : The file should be backed up, Zipped and encrypted uing PGP
    BZ : The file should be backed up, Zipped
    etc ...

    Check file is done using an EVNT file, the file name is a variable and it works, but when I am using wildcards, it does not detect files

    if the file in &FILE# is FILE it works, if it is FI* nothing is detected.

    Someone can help please ?

    Regards,

    Hi Khalid,

    what does the report of the EVNT show?

    And what’s about the Agent Log File, does it show any error message?
    Another questions could be:

    • Does it work in case FI* is used instead of the variable?
    • Does it work with UNC path instead of drive letter?
