Hello. Using FME Server 2022. I have an issue monitoring our FTP. I want to monitor all subdirectories for changes. I keep getting an error where "/." is being appended to the "Path to Watch Directory" an infinite number of times. I get thousands of errors from the automation.

SubdirectoriesHere is the error message:

errorWhen I check into our ftp client logs, here is an example of the file path that FME Server creates:

 

/upload/Directory/./././././././././././././.

 

Why doesn't the trigger just detect and stop at the directories that exist?

 

 

 

 

 

Hi @dsmylie​ ,

What version and build of FME 2022 are you using? I was not able to reproduce this issue.

How many subdirectories is expected inside /upload/Directory?

Would you be able to share the ftp log and the automation log for me to take a look?

Thanks,

Kezia


Would it be possible to share this information with you directly? I don't feel comfortable sharing the ftp log, especially on a public forum. Cheers!
