    Using new 8.2 deployment feature in GUI Eclipse, I found out that the map is FTP transfered to target server but is not executable. Sometimes with error 04 (suggesting an FTP in ASCII?), sometimes with no message at all !

    Did anybody else encounter this?

    All versions of WTX deploy via FTP, that's why each server you define in the msl requires FTP info.

    Depending on the OS you set that server to, that is how the map will compile, and be moved to the server. WTX should compile and move it based on that and that alone. We, the users, do not select ascii or binary transfer of the mmc files.

    Hi Repanzer
    Thanks for your answer, but I am not talking about the IFD deployment, but 8.2 Design Studio (IE Eclipse) deploy feature
    Did you try that one? I manage to deploy the map but then the map on server are not executable
    I suspect the FTP to be in ASCII instead of BINARY mode and I wanted other users feedback before opening PMR

    You must BUILD for Specific Platform, not just "build".

    If you only "build", then default Platform is used ( Windows ).
    If you put your Windows .mmc directly into aix/linux/unix or other platform, then you got those errors.

    Build to the correct platform and then you can pass the compiled map via FTP ( change the extension from .aix, or whatever other platform u use, to .mmc )

    Thanks a lot for trying to help Kepa, But I think you are not reading what I am writing.
    I am talking about the new deployment feature of version 8.2, on IDE Eclipse.
    Did you look at my posted URL?

    this feature allows you to define target FTP servers with plateform definition

    However, according to me it is not working as designed, and I just need confirmation that it is the case for others

    I am on 8.2.0.4 build 77 for info.

    check out the attached pic.

    Sorry, i didn't see your pic.
    I'm using the new version with Eclipse IDE for testing pourpouses but still on Local installation in a Windows box, so i have not installed the server on our aix boxes yet and can not confirm if your issue could be replicated.

    Just forget my last post. Sorry again.

    I used this functionality ftping compiled maps on UNIX and linux boxes and everything worked fine.
    It means maps could be run successfully by command server.
    What do you mean by "not executable"?

    Hi Piotr,

    At the time I was onsite with 8.2.0.4 (77), and the map was simply not executing, not even any RC !
    the command server was smoking a joint and couldn't care less about my run command line :-)

    Now it seems to work on a W2003 deployment with IF02 (build 116), did not try on a Linux/Unix box but I guess the bug was fixed with interim fix

    Thanks anyway
