  • 1.  WTX 8.4 - Database connection happens twice

    Posted 10/06/17 05:45 AM

    I have a WTX 8.4 map on Wmb 8.0 (Linux) server, a simple one which has DB connection in the map through .mrn. 

    Issue - When I process a single file, it inserts 2 records in the table with input filename. 

    For ex : If input filename is DSTX.20170610:

    FileReceive (table)

    ==

    DSTX.20170610

    DSTX.20170610

    I see the .dbl file where the database connection happens twice with same date and time. This happens on the server.

    FYI : We receive the file from WMB. WMB will ftp pull the file and move it to WTX map.

    Appreciate your help!!

    Activate unique map audit logs, and then we can see how many times the map executes.  Do you have Burst mode on?

    Hello Jane,

    Thank you for the response.

    I have an existing setting with Audit Unique and Backup of Input card.

    On server, below files are created:

    Run_XXXXXX_03_I2.bak

    Run_XXXXXX_03.log

    Run_XXXXXX_05_I2.bak

    All these files creation datetime is same. The above audit log reads the input only once.

    Kindly let me know if you need further details. Thank you again.

    Thank you.

    Hi Paul,

    Currently, we are inserting data into view. This view or the dependent table doesn't have trigger on it.

    Also in the old WMB server (version 6), we inserted data once successfully to same view from WTX 8.2

     

    Thanks,

    Rav

    Sorry, I thought you were double triggering a WTX map from a data insert to a database.

    So, your map is triggering from a file, and supposed to insert 1 row, but inserts 2?  Change the target of the map to file.  What results does that show?

    Thank you.

    So the assumption is that your map is triggered only the once from your input file. Is your DB insert performed within a functional map? 

    If so, check the parameters that you pass to the functional map to see if there is any chance of it being run more often than you might expect. 

    If you need to investigate further, simplify the map and the DB call as far as possible so as to eliminate as many factors as you can.
