The process in not starting

[Bogdan]

Hi guys,
I created a short workflow, but the ffpemg process is not starting. Could you please advice me?
I'm using Windows Server R2 2008 and NAS storage for input/output.

Many thanks,
Bogdan

Hi Bogdan,

Did you save your workflow after creating it?
And concerning the input-processor: have you specified which filetypes can be processed?

Hi Taner,

I saved my workflow and I didn't specify any file to be denied.

Many thanks,
Bogdan

Ok, what does the field "accept files" in the input-processor contain?

[Bogdan]

Hi Taner,

The accept file field is empty.
I followed the same instructions from this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMISBx6iSeQ. I copied the file into watch folder and I expected to see the job processing in monitor window instead I can see no activity on that window. I'm using the last version available on the website 0.7.7.
Please see the workflow settings:

I had to change the input- and output-paths of your workflow (still remains local drive) but apart from that it works on my machine.
Only thing I see is that "Check for growing files" is not enabled.
Please check the box and try it again with a new file.

If you have already files in your watchfolder you can stop the workflow, reset and start it again.
Alternatively you can also submit a file manually.
This should always show whether your workflow works at all.

Hi Taner,

The problem is solved. It was a problem with my unzip tool.(some files were missing)

Thank you for your help,
Bogdan
