FusionPro has encountered a fatal error and must abort. If the problem persists "yada yada yada"...

Before I call and wait around for Tech Support, I like to get some feedback here if anyone else had encountered this error. Or if I'm doing anything not quite right in my coding or execution.

Please do not hesitate to contact Support. A problem like this can only be reproduced by them having your job to run. Even if someone could identify a problem with your JavaScript code on the forum, it won't necessarily solve the fatal error. At any rate, if you end up having to wait while Support analyzes your job, why not let them get started as soon as possible?

= Do the callback variables outputFileFullPathName or outputFileName (I've tried both, and the same result happens) only work within the Desktop version?

No, they work the same way in FusionPro Server.

= even when using the outputFileName function, can I still include a partial path location such as "..\\indigoBulkFiles\\" + "key_705682_" + Field("jobid") + ".pdf";

Yes, although what that's going to do depends on where FusionPro Server is running. The relative path will be converted to a fully- qualified path relative to the current working directory. So, if you're typing the parameters manually at the command prompt, you'll know what the current directory is. However, if you're doing a remote composition, such as through DL Queue, you may not be able to control what the working directory is. In that case, you'll have to use a fully qualified path. And you should really use UNC to ensure that the file goes to the correct folder on your network. If you have multiple Target machines on your queue, you don't want the output in a local folder on one of those machines. You could make sure that all the Target machines have the same drive letter mapped to the network location, but UNC is much more foolproof. You should also use UNC for the input file location.

= Is there a special command line name that you should give your output file to let FP Server know that these files will be renamed?

I'm not sure what you mean. If you change the output file name in OnNewOutputFile, that will override the output file name specified on the command line.

= Someone in another post on a similar subject stated that they liked to control this "location of the files" path from within the configuration setup. But the FP Server configuration does not list an area for output file location, just type and batch file quantity. The location is given as the last entry of the command line.

I don't know of any way to globally change your output file location from a configuration file. That's what the outputFileFullPathName property in OnNewOutputFile is for. However, if you're using FusionPro Server, you are telling FusionPro where to locate the output file on the command-line. So, whatever custom application code you are using to drive FusionPro Server could presumably be modified to generate a different command-line parameter.
