Hi All,
We have a scheduled job, which started failing from only past 3 days. The log says failed to create hash file. I didnt understand why it is unable to create all of sudden. The user is having write permisssions to the file. Pls let me know what are the other reasons can be

Is the hashed file externally pathed or defaulting to the project? Does the directory exist? Does the userid have access to the directory? Please post the exact error message and how the hashed file is being created.

It's "hashed" file, not "hash" file.

What's changed since it worked? ("Nothing" is not the correct answer.)

Is/was the disk full at the time? Does the user have appropriate permission to all the directories in the path, all the way from the root of the file system?

Once you find what changed, don't neglect to allocate blame and update your system documentation to prevent future occurrences.

Hi,

The file has to be created in a path only. User is having access to the path. There is enough memory in the disk. The error is "can not create file /opt/sp310/pi/hash/PIPO_01". Here /opt/sp310/pi/hash/PIPO_01 is the path of the folder where hash file has to be created. What can be the other reasons

No it's not. /opt/sp310/pi/hash/ is the pathname of the folder. That's what you should have in the Directory field. PIPO_01 is the name of the hashed file that will be created in that folder. This is in the File Name field of the Hashed File stage.

Yes, a folder called PIPO_01 (containing files called DATA.30, OVER.30 and .Type30) will be created, but you have to set it up as indicated above.

Yes Ray,

You are right /opt/sp310/pi/hash/ is the path and PIPO_01 is the name of the file. But can you tell me it was failed to create the file

login as the user in question, change to that directory, and "touch" a file to test if you truly have permissions to that directory
