FME Server 2012 - output files going to FME Server Repository directory instead of UNC path

Hello,

 

Sorry about the long subject.

 

I have an issue where SOME workbenches published to FME Server, the data is being written to the ...FMEServer\\Server\\repository directory instead of a file server (via UNC path).

 

Sometimes when go to run the workbench via the fmejobsubmitter web page, the parameters only have the last folder name not the UNC prefix I.E. the path should be \\\\fileserver\\folder1\\folder name2\\folder3\\data.csv on the web page it is folder3\\data.csv.

I enter the full path with the quotes and run the job. The data ends up in repository\\folder3.

 

After the job has completed, I look at the log file and it has the correct and complete destination path.

 

Any solutions other than upgrading to 2013?

 

Cheers,

Solved - Possibly.

 

 

I found that the server name I am using is an alias, and not just one but an alias that refers to another alias.

 

 

When I changed the server name to it 'primary' (hope that's the correct way of describing it), the output went to where it was supposed to go.
