When I run my workflow in designer it takes the text input file just fine and goes through, but when I download it to the server or look for the same file interactively it gives me this error, why and how do I fix it?

Hi @carl-meyer 

 

Had this same issue last week. My solution was the following:

 

In the file browse tool, set the file specification to the below:

(*.txt)|*.txt|(*.TXT)|*.TXT

In the action tool, make sure it's set to 'Update Value' and choose the file value option.

Let me know how you make out.
