  • 1.  File contention issue in WTX

    Hello,

    we are having an issue whereby one map failed to process one input file with error: 12 - Source not available, but after restarted WTX launcher a few hours later, the file was processed successfully. The input file is copied to the folder by a batch job. 

    Has anyone experienced this? What could be the reason? And how to prevent this in WTX settings? Can the MapDelay setting be used for this situation? 

    Thanks in advance.

    Not only MapDelay, but also MapRetry settings should be used here to mitigate this issue.

    There's also fine tuning the File watch settings in the dtx.ini file, such as :

    ; file time granularity in seconds
    TriggerTime=1

    You may also want to change your batch job to copy in the files (with a filename that does NOT match the trigger specification) and only rename the files (to match the trigger specification) only when the copy is complete.

    Thank you
