Chained app on server never ends running

PH_80
7 - Meteor

Hello,

 

I have a chained app that works fine on the designer desktop but when I export it and upload the package on the server the step 2 app gets triggered but then never gets completed. It just runs until the administrator cancels it. No error messages.

 

For further explanation of the workflow:

  • Step 1 creates a template excel file in a shared drive location ( I can see this has been created)
  • Step 2 populates the template and outputs 15 different sheets in this file
  • I have followed suggestions on the community and exported the chained app before uploading to the server
  • Step 2 has begun ( I can see from the workflow results) but appears to be stuck at a point and will not continue
  • Step 2 uses control containers to write the outputs, but because we have so many outputs I've used the crew macros delay a second


Do you have any suggestions for troubleshooting this? @mceleavey 

 


Hope you can help with this, thanks in advance!

Hi,

Check the release notes for the server version you are on.  I saw this under 2021.4 minor release

Chained applications stop working in 21.4.1 Server. The first app runs, but subsequent apps do not.

2021.4.2.02731
