FME cloud shared resources subfolder problem

Hello,

I am trying out sending attachments via email from FME cloud instance (tutorial for FME server 2015 - sending mail tutorial, example 5). Everything seems to work nicely, however there's a problem I seem to run into when setting file paths.

When I upload my file into resources under data, and call the file path in my workspace - 

 

for example 

 

$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/Water.zip,

 

the file is sent just fine. But when I create a subfolder in data folder, the file does not get sent to me.

$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/folderexample/myData.xls

How do I call subfolders, so that my workspace published on cloud finds the file?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi

 

 

Just an idea: Since FME Cloud runs on Linux, file paths are probably case sensitive. So be extra careful about getting upper-/lowercase right on your foldername.

Hello David,

 

I have made absolutely sure that I am typing folder / file names correctly. Still when I try to link to a file in a subfolder, I get email without attachment.
