Re: Problem when moving files to other hotfolders from Switch

Ouch, I encountered the same problem before. My MIS XML import did two imports due of this, I thought it was my MIS problem so decided to use SQL to dump the entire XML in the database. Today I noticed this job in Production Center, which failed; http://i.imgur.com/Z9LoyUE.png So, thanks for your sc...

Re: SwitchClient, ODBC and Parent Value

I played around with the SQL statements in the Client to achieve the same thing, so you might be interested what's the result. The idea was to fill in a ordernumber and the other values are populated via SQL. I could not get it figured out so I'm using checkpoints too, like Gabriel. But what I tried...

Re: Editing metadata

I don't stop my flows to check metadata. Right click the jobs column » Show columns » Custom 1/5. http://i.imgur.com/o28dxaL.png Next right click your column » Set column value » Define condition with variables, and go to your metadata as normal. http://i.imgur.com/lJ21zOX.png It's not the most eleg...

Re: Editing metadata

Sounds as feature request #1!

I'll ask Enfocus to see if there's anything in the pipeline.

Re: Editing metadata

When I started my job (with Switch) a year ago I was not well known with Javascript / Scripting Module. Since I know other scripting languages I started easy and used Powershell via Execute Command. You can pass arguments to it, that way we can update/create a XML file and use it in a XML pickup. Ex...

Re: Editing metadata

I agree. I have a couple of simple scripts which have been very useful, like you say damn essential. For sure a lot of Switch users have done the same scripting lately, it can't be otherwise. I'm not a great scripter, but most of my scripts successful passed hundreds/thousands of jobs already haha. ...

Re: Editing metadata

Ha, how cool. I was just thinking about how to do this and the only way I could think of is using PrivateData. So let's look at the forum for some tips, same question asked a day ago, and same thoughts :D Before I go into using PrivateData, is any of you guys running Switch 13 yet? Can it be done ea...

Re: Safe to update to cc 2015?

HP told the SmartStream configurators that support SmartStream Designer 11 / InDesign 2015 are validated by Enfocus at the moment.

Re: Can't read output jobs from not local machine

Good to hear you finally managed to solve it.
Very strange behaviour tho!

Ah well, Japanse, sorry for the Chinese blame! ;)

Anyway, glad I could help a little. Always looking to gain more Switch experience :)

Re: Download all files with certain pattern

If the FTP folder is all yours I would download everything from it, probably you are in need of the files sooner or later. Put a assemble job after it with custom scheme with 12345 as a variable you took from the XML, waiting for 3 corresponding files. Sounds much easier to me. If that's not the cas...

Re: Can't read output jobs from not local machine

Haha fun, screenshots Dutch vs Chinese that is? But, it's working now with the same user? So no need for the Everyone group anymore? Anyway, looks like the source permissions are preserved, this usually happens when a file is copied within the same volume. It should not do that on a network share. M...

Re: Can't read output jobs from not local machine

Don't think so. First of all I would try to assign the Everyone group with all rights to both the Sharing and Security tab (when you right click the shared folder). For sure only for testing, depending on your network you might not want the everyone group to access the share. Can't include a English...

Re: Can't read output jobs from not local machine

Can be a permission issue, but before figuring that out I just realised I had a network folder issue once. Let's take that as example: \\HPPRO1-SM1\Jobs is mapped to K:\. When I select a path in Switch I can browse to K:\ and select a folder, however Switch was not able to use it. I had to change th...
