Export file to desktop by automation service in spotfire

[lei zhang 2]

I run an automation service in my spotfire,it do well in locally.

But when it excute on server I got this :

Starting job Untitled on server http://****

FAILED: Task 2 'Export Image' failed with: Output directory 'C:UsersDesktop' does not exist.

Done

When you execute the Job on server, the job is executed on the Node Manager machine (and not on the local machine) and if you provide a local path in the destination, the account (running Node Manager service) tries to find the given path in that machine. In your case, the local path 'C:UsersDesktop' does not seem to be available in the NM machine.

 

Ensure the 'Destination Path' is accessible from the Node Manager machine in File Explorer. As a best practice, this would be a UNC path like \spotfirewebnm1Test.

Ensure the service account running the Node Manager service has Write permissions on the destination path

Hello Lyon,

Make sure you have configured the AllowedFilePaths orAllowAllFilePaths setting inSpotfire.Dxp.Worker.Host.exe.config file of Automation Services configuration.

Thanks,Varma
