Execute Command, continuing on error
Q: Execute Command, continuing on error. I have a rule which moves a file from one win folder to another win folder and then runs a CMD against it. If the CMD errors out it keeps retrying the file. How do I move the failed file to another folder on the error and NOT retry it with the command line?
My current setup is:
WIN as Source
Destinations:
WIN
CMD (Execute Command)
A: In our latest version v2022.6.2.0 we added a new ‘Redirect ExitCode to PS Integer Var A (%VIA)’ option. Please check the ‘Advanced Tab’ of the CMD (Command) as Destination. Enable this option to transfer the ExitCode to our Pascal Script Integer Var psVIA. We’ll use the psVIA var to move the source file in case the Command returns a value <> 0 (which normally is an errorcode).
We will need a third ‘Pascal Script’ as Destination.
1) WIN as Destination
2) CMD as Destination
Now please add a third ‘Pascal Script’ Destination. This must be in the last position. Do not forget to adjust the Const ctErrorPath value. This Pascal Script will move the source file to an error path if the ExitCode of the CMD (command) <> 0.
Const ctErrorPath = 'C:\3ProcessError\'; // must end with a / Begin psExitCode:= 1; // ... add your code here If psVIA <> 0 Then Begin psMoveFile(psFilePath + psFileName, ctErrorPath + psFileName); psLogwrite(1, '', 'CMD ExitCode Error, psVIA: ' + IntToStr(psVIA)); End; End.

Move 1 file to 1 location and another file to a different location
Q: Is it possible to move 1 file to 1 location and another file to a different location but only when a file with a specific extension is present? I’m processing a job where I create a data file with print information and a PDFfile, in the Main location there will be .csv file
Main Location
.csv
At some point a pdf file will appear in the main location i.e.
.csv
.pdf
Can I create a rule where
It only starts when a .pdf is present
Moves the .pdf file to 1 location and the .csv file to a different location?
A: Yes this is possible using a bit of Pascal Script. We added some screenshots from an example to get you started.
We added a local Windows folder as Source:
Important is to add the following FileName Include Filters. We’ll scan for ‘*.csv’ and ‘*.pdf’ files.
Open the Pascal Script option:
Enable and Add the following ‘On Rule Begin’ Pascal Script:
Begin psExitCode:= 1; // ... add your code here psVSA := ''; End.
Enable and Add the following ‘On Destination’ Pascal Script:
Var tmpExt: String; tmpFile: String; Begin psExitCode := 0; // ... add your code here tmpExt := ExtractFileExt(psFileName); // Check for pdf if csv exists If tmpExt = '.csv' Then Begin tmpFile := psStringReplace(psFileName, tmpExt, '.pdf'); If FileExists(psFilePath + tmpFile) or (Pos(psFilePath + tmpFile, psVSA) <> 0) Then Begin psLogWrite(1, '', 'File ' + tmpFile + ' Exists'); psVSA := psVSA + ';' + psFilePath + psFileName; psExitCode := 1; End; End; // Check for csv if pdf exists If tmpExt = '.pdf' Then Begin tmpFile := psStringReplace(psFileName, tmpExt, '.csv'); If FileExists(psFilePath + tmpFile) or (Pos(psFilePath + tmpFile, psVSA) <> 0) Then Begin psLogWrite(1, '', 'File ' + tmpFile + ' Exists'); psVSA := psVSA + ';' + psFilePath + psFileName; psExitCode := 1; End; End; End.
Enable and Add the following ‘On Destinations‘ Pascal Script:
Begin psExitCode := -1; // .csv files to Destination ID1 If (psDestinationID = 'ID1') And (ExtractFileExt(psFileName) = '.csv') Then psExitCode := 1; // .pdf files to Destination ID2 If (psDestinationID = 'ID2') And (ExtractFileExt(psFileName) = '.pdf') Then psExitCode := 1; End.
Add two Destinations. Important, the first Destination (ID1) should receive hte csv files and the second Destination (ID2) should receive the pdf files.
RunTime Log Result. The Csv file goes to the first Destination and only when a pdf file with the same name exists. The pdf file itself goes to the second Destination.

Get content of text file and use this as body for email
Q: If I use Filemover to move or copy a txt file, is it possible to get the contents of that file, and then maybe include it in a Rule Event e-mail? I would like it as the e-mail body please.
A: Yes this is possible. We’ll use some Pascal Script to read the content of the text file into a variable (%VSA). This variable will be used in the email setup of the SMTP destination.
In our example we’ll scan for text files in a local Windows folder.
The ‘Include File Name’ filter is set to *.txt because we only want to pick up text files.
Important, set the Function > Destination Option to ‘Exit Cyclus on Error’. The reason is that we are going to use two destinations. The first destination which is a Pascal Script will read the content of the text file in to the %VSA variable. If this doesn’t succeed then we should not go to the second ‘SMTP’ destination. We only want to sent the email (SMTP) if the read content of the source text file is successful.
As previously described, we are going to use two destinations. Important, the first one must be the ‘Pascal Script’ destination.
Var tmpFile: String; tmpList: TStringList; Begin psExitCode:= 0; // ... add your code here tmpFile := psFilePath + psFileName; tmpList := TStringList.Create; Try Try tmpList.LoadFromFile(tmpFile); psVSA := tmpList.Text; psExitCode := 1; Except psLogWrite(1, '', 'Error loading ' + tmpFile); End; Finally tmpList.Free; End; End.
The second destination is SMTP. Some screenshots of the setup we used. We added the %VSA varaible in the Body of the email.
RunTime log result:
Received email with the content of the text file in the body of the email:
