ABL OUTPUT TO Blank Title 142703

Security makes sense. The code I took it from writes to a hidden share with everyone having write permissions.

Thanks,
Your example works as long as the "\\svr-dapp" part is my Vantage server name
(the previous D:\ drive example was a local path on the Vantage server)

But it is still failing when I try to point to other server names on the network.

I'm thinking it's a security issue here.
I checked with a test system on an isolated LAN & was able to send to other servers on that LAN.

Hi,

In V8.03 I have a BPM that is writing some data to a file in a users report folder
using a line like this:   output to "D:\epicor\mfgsysdata\Reports\userxxx\PIF.txt".

Was hoping I could send the output to a shared network folder but
When I tried a URL and mapping a drive, both of those attempts failed - the BPM throw an error & no output.



Thanks

Bruce

Did you try a UNC path?

I have a bpm that writes to a share that works on 9.05. I copied the lines from there and made a test on customer update that works in 905.702A.

define variable fileLocation as character init ''.

define variable outputLine as character init ''.

 

 

For Each ttCustomer where ttCustomer.rowmod = "U".

 

assign fileLocation = "\\svr-dapp\EpicorData\Reports\" + DCD-UserID + "\test.txt".

 

output to value(fileLocation).

 

outputLine = "stuff".         

 

message outputLine.

 

End.
