Many many problems with PATHWAY

[laurent_christelle]

Hello,

We use Rampage 10.4b10, with Pathway and Remote.

When I try to Export or Archive jobs, sometime, I have many error (jobs are not entirely copied, but they are erased (Archive option) !!.

When I import jobs, sometime, Pagelist is been corrupt.

Our reseller Fuji Graphic France cannot find a real solution (they give us many update (Rampage software on our server, Rampage and Pathway software on ours Mac)... Dell have tested our server, Fuji have tested our Network ; No problems !

Do you use Pathway to export jobs ? and if yes, do you have problems ?

If I had to make a guess, its probably file names with illegal characters.
Are there any /,#,!,* or any other non-standard characters. I personally do not use pathway to archive jobs, I have two Raids connected to my server, one for working files and one for Rampage. When I archive (Xinet FlashNet) I have a hot folder set up so when I drop Rampage jobs into it, it automatically archives just the Rampage stuff.

so you have to rebuild Pagelist each time you have saved jobs ?

[macphenom]

Yes, everytime you manually remove jobs from Rampage you will need to rebuild the page list so Rampage reflects what is still active in the RSI folder. I usually move files out of Rampage once a month. My page list averages about 14000 entries and I delete about half that number at the end of each month. So on a list of about 14000 entries figure about 20 minutes to rebuild depending on the speed of your network.
