I'm trying to write a text file to a network drive and have tried using mapped and UNC paths. The file is not being created and is generating the error:

A run-time error occurred while executing automation script: Line 17. File not found

It is filling up schedule.log with this message over and over until the service is stopped.

I have tried running it from 24x7.exe and it works fine. It is only with the service that I see this happening.

Any ideas?

How do you write a text file? I mean, if you use a script, which method you use? Can you provide a code snippet using the actual file name and path?

Here is a sample of the code:

Dim f, Number

FileOpen("\\Networkpath\xxxx\xxxx\xxxx\JOB1Job337FinishedRunJob1Job347.txt", "LineMode", "Write", False, f)

FileWrite(f, "Job1Job337Finished")

FileClose(f)

Well... I wanted to see what you have for xxxx if there are any \t or \n or \r

Anyway, to be safe the code should be changed from

\\Networkpath\xxxx\xxxx\xxxx\JOB1Job337FinishedRunJob1Job347.txt

to

\\\\Networkpath\\xxxx\\xxxx\\xxxx\\JOB1Job337FinishedRunJob1Job347.txt

That did the trick, thanks!
