Re: [development-axapta] Error running export to file as batch but no problem when run normally by the user
Hi James,
The last time I saw this problem it was because the runbasebatch framework
needed the pack and unpack methods. The In Process Production Costing report
would not run in batch. Path = (Production - Reports - Balance - In Process
Production Costing.).
We had to create a pack method that looked like this:
public container pack()
{
return [#CurrentVersion, #CurrentList];
}
and we had to create an unpack method that looked like this:
public boolean unpack(container packedClass)
{
container _base;
boolean _ret;
Integer _version= RunBase::getVersion(packedClass);
switch (_version)
{
case #CurrentVersion:
[_version, #CurrentList, _base] = packedClass;
_ret = true;
break;
default:
_ret = false;
}
return _ret;
}

Are you using a relative or absolute path? You should share the folder with
write access for the user that executes the AOS service. Ensure that you are
using an absolute path such as \\ComputerName\ShareFolderName. If you use a
relative path such as C:\FolderName\AnotherFolder then it will work if the job
is executed from the client computer and the folder is on that computer.
However, if the batch job is set to run on the server and the same folder path
does not exists on the AOS computer you will have a problem.

Subject: [development-axapta] Error running export to file as batch but no
problem when run normally by the user
H i everyone
I have a strange problem that I have a class that basically creates a text
file of the item onhand information.
The class works fine when run by the user but when I set it to run in batch
it gives an error when the following code is called by the batch client:
new FileIOPermission( FileName, 'w').assert( );
File = new AsciiIO(FileName, 'w');
The error says about ASCIIIO is not initialised.
I get the error even if I start the batch client in the same logged in AX
session that works if the user runs the export directly so I am a little
lost
Also I took the export and put it on a dev server and it worked okay using
the batch client! So I am wondering when the batch client is running what
user id is it running as? The user id that logged into AX and started the
batch client or the user id that is in the AOS service start up or something
else?
Does anyone have any idea why the batch running would give this error since
the export works fine when run directly by the user?
This is AX4.0 SP1 or SP2 I cannot remember right now
Thanks
James
