Agentry File Download from Network Share

Former Member

I have an Agentry project configured to download a file from the SMP server which is working successfully. However when I try to download a file from a network drive, Agentry simply goes right through the Step command and does not download the file.

I have tried a number of unsuccessful configuration and permissioning setups.

Currently, my step is the following which works:

TYPE "D:\MobileData\Geodatabase.zip"

I have tried the following which do not work:

TYPE "Y:\MobileData\Geodatabase.zip" (note: Y:\ is a network drive)

TYPE "\\ServerName\MobileData\Geodatabase.zip"

When I copy either of the above to TYPE commands into the command prompt it works so I do not think it is an issue with the actual command. I have given permission on these shared drives to everyone as well as the service name running SMP.

Any ideas as to why this does not work?

If your SMP server is running as a service then it doesn't have access to your user drive mappings. Have you tried running the SMP server under your user account (go.bat) instead of as a service to see if the files will download correctly?

That would be the first thing I would try to confirm if it is an account issue or not.

I will try, but I have specified the server name directly instead of the user mappings and that did not work. I have also confirmed that the server folder is accessible by everyone.
