Output Tool : Invalid state to read file ERROR

Hi, I'm having errors with the output tool(maybe it was due to the 2020.3 update on September 1st).

 

Error Name : 'Invalid state to read file'

I've found out that the error appears only when if there is a file that already exists(ex. FS2.xlsx on the capture below).

If I delete the file FS2.xlsx then run the workflow, the output tool works well.

Hi, dear @JunePark @sparksun 

after upgraded to v2020.3.4.30228, I got same error message for the "Invalid state to read file", this is a critical bug for  output ( It seriously affected the work ! ). 

When will they fix it as you know ?   thanks a  lot !

Same problem ...

My flow were working perfectly but since the new update "2020.30" nothing is working no more.

I hope that will be fixed very soon because that is a dealbreaker.

This is only happening to one of my workflows since upgrading, there are no strange characters.  Is there any update on this issue?

Hello there,

Just downloaded the new version 2020.3 and I am getting also this error! It's a big problem, most of my Workflows don't work anymore 😕

Sorry for the late reply. Haven't heard of anything yet..
I also wish this gets solved soon. It's really annoying.

Just wanted to add a +1 since we are also facing this issue. Very inconvenient when the company's root directory has a big fat "ö" in the path.
