Subject Exit Code = 102 and Exit code = -100

Message Hi,

I have Command and ftp tasks running, they appear to work OK but the exit code is 102. What does this mean ?

Reply1 Hi Harry,

Thanks for using Automize. In a chain , the exit code is 102
if a) the task failed to start or b) did not finish (return) after the maximum wait time for the task is exceeded.

You can increase the maximum wait time and see if this fixes the exit code. Sometimes, the Ftp connection / command task will not signify that it has closed and causes the chain to get this exit code for the task.

Reply2 Melvin,

Did as you suggested, gave the ftp task an extra 5 mins to
run. The exit code is now -100 but again it seems to be working OK, is there something else I need to do ?

Reply3 Hi Harry,

1) Exit code = -100 is correct. EC=0 is when no error and no files get transferred. EC=-100 is when no error occurs and files get transferred.
2) If you are using the EC value to move/skip to certain steps in the chain, then change your criteria from EC=0, to EC <= 0, so that both 0 and -100 are considered.
