Epicor was the ones who changed my code --without notice-- and added the ConvertPath stuff now they are saying it’s deprecated?!

And the PBM file export doesn’t work at all anymore. So there goes are labels.

So the issues we’re seeing is because we’re on Linux container now. I need to get our label export working before they throw this to PROD or I’m toast…

Indeed and for at least 2 of our customer in the UK it shows Linux. One of which

Wonder why yours is still showing windows…………is having the ssrs issues.

These issues are documented here in the forum and with an Epicor KB, fixed in 2025.2.10 if i recall. As a workaround, you can copy your report styles to a shorter path (has to be under 100 chars after epicor adds their additional stuff to it)

for ar invoice for example, my report paths need to be 2 characters for the 2 paths, ar and pb.

I thought the Linux migration was delayed? But guess not based on the most recent post from @tpynepeak on the other Linux thread.

The list of known issues seems pretty major to push forward anyway. Especially with no notification to customers.

Different issues I’m afraid….

Not able to copy a report style being one of them. Get a permissions issue.

Second is the one in the known issues of unable to preview or publish in SSRS report designer.

What version?

Report Style Copy shouldn’t touch the filesystem anymore as they are maintained in database now, that’s interesting, maybe some legacy code that didn’t get shut off.

DM me if you’d like to discuss further so we stay on topic here with linux containers :open_mouth:

2025.2.10 cloud. Multiple customers.

Only started happening today and is on topic of Linux containers. Just not made it to known issues yet.

Been battling these for over 8hrs (UK)

What do you see in the error detail in app server log for the report copy call?

I’m on Flex 2, maybe that is why not moved to Linux yet.

Anyone know what the syntax is for Linux Containers to export to Epicor’s FTP site?
Error: “Could not find a part of the path ‘/FTPsite/folder/bartender/PilotDB/JobData.bt’.”

The code is

outPath = Sandbox.Compatibility.ConvertPath(@"//FTPsite/folder/bartender/PilotDB/");

When checking the BPM it throws this warning. Anyone know the Syntax for this FilePath?

Warning CS0618: 'ICompatibility.ConvertPath(string)' is obsolete: 'Use FilePath instead.'

//FTPsite is at the root of the filesystem?

I don’t think you can do that anymore..

Yeah I don’t recall getting an email that were were switched to Linux containers but I got one a few days ago to continue testing the Linux containers so I started testing BPMs today. Nothing so far. I have a few dozen to go.

Have not tried copying report styles yet but the MES thing is failing just like everyone elses.

Update: I was able to copy a report style both in Classic and Kinetic. We are in the cloud though so that might be it?

Yesterday was intermittent. ( the known known issues) today with the same item get

The permissions granted to user ‘erpdtuk\thrd*****$’ are insufficient for performing this operation.
