Not able to save workflow on server

[hemal91]

Hi There,

I am getting "Illegal character in path" error while saving workflow on 

Alteryx server gallery.

Anyone aware of possible solution ?

Appreciate help in advance.

Hi @hemal91 

Can you provide the path directories of input/output tools? 

Can you attempt to shorten the directory path of where the files are stored (C:\Folder\.xlsx) just to make things easier?

Does the server machine have access to these files?

Hope this helps.

Hi 

For input I'm using EPV tool for which connects to Teradata using Oracle ODBC driver.

For output, I'm saving output files to Shared drive.

Workflow is working fine while store it on desktop or run on desktop. I'm having issue while I'm saving workflow to DEV server.

1) Does the DEV server have access to the shared drive?

2) Can you try to use a shorter file path on the DEV server?

3) Does the DEV machine have access to the Teradata connection?

4) If there is a run-as user configured on the DEV server, it must have access to this shared folder also.

5) Can you provide the file path so I can see if that path would work?

Hi

PFB requested details.

1) Yes server has access to shared drive

2) I Only get option to save workflow to my personal gallery on server.

3) Yes, it does have access to Teradata

4) it's configured as run in EPV mode

5) user\desktop is the path where I saved the file on my desktop

error message: 

Error: EPV_CLI_Macro_V2.13 (286): Tool #67: Traceback (most recent call last):

1) Based on the error message, you will need to install the python package pyaim on your machine/DEV server.

2) The DEV Server most likely doesn't have access to your desktop file path, can you store the input files/output files in a network location so DEV server can have access to these files?

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I found the cause of the error !!

Two of the output tools were pointing to the local path where those were configured to write on shared drive. We found that issue by opening that workflow in one my teammate’s desktop where it highlighted local path of my desktop.

Issue is RESOLVED !!!!

Hey just FYI. This Python error message is specific to JPMC. You should mention this in the internal JPMC Alteryx community so that our Admins can identify the environment and update the server.
