Many thanks Claus. I've tried to simply the scenario and ended up asking the wrong question. My bad.
The input directory in my scenario changes daily based on the date. So the route looks like this: string todaysDateStr = "01-01-2015"; //this value changes based on the current date from("smb://networkDriveOne/"+ todaysDateStr +"?noop=true&fileName=inputFile.csv") .to("smb://networkDriveTwo?fileExist=Override") So everyday there will be a new input directory with new inputFile.csv in it. Camel, however, doesn't copy the file unless I restart it. Does Camel handle dynamic input directories? Moving/deleting files is not an option as they are used by other legacy systems. -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/smb-endpoint-modified-files-not-copied-to-destination-tp5770499p5770515.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
