Original Title was: Possible solution for: "Geodatabase Error (-2147024893): The system cannot find the path specified."
Not sure if this is the right space to post this but here goes:
I just spent most of the morning trying to automate my data workflow using FME, .bat files and Windows Task Scheduler.
The logic is:
- Task Scheduler runs a workbench .bat file
- The .bat file executes an FME workbench
Detailed Errors:
2019-07-09 11:52:00| 0.6| 0.0|ERROR |Geodatabase Error (-2147024893): The system cannot find the path specified.
2019-07-09 11:52:00| 0.6| 0.0|ERROR |Could not open File Geodatabase dataset `geodb path' for reading
My troubleshooting:
- The translation is successful when running from within FME
- The translation is successful when running directly from the .bat file
- The translation is NOT successful when using Task Scheduler to run the .bat file
Solution(?)
I changed the following setting in Task Scheduler:
My translation is now successful using Task Scheduler.
I'm writing this post to help others who are having similar issues.
I would appreciate if anyone can explain the difference between the two settings... I must have misinterpreted what they actually do.
