Not denying folders with spaces

Post by c0ntact0 »

HI everyone,

"Deny Folders" option on monitor folders processor it's not denying folders with spaces in the name, like "Avid MediaFiles".
There is some workaround for this problem?

Thanks

Hi Rui, thank you for using FFAStrans and welcome to the forum! :-)

I'm not able to recreate. Could you please export and post your workflow, or supply a screen shot of the monitor node?

I'm still struggling to recreate the problem. I've used the same settings on my network share and it behaves exactly as it should. Files inside the deny folders are not being picked up. If I remove one of the from the list, FFAStrans will pick them up. Can you please double check for typos etc. in your folders?

Hi Steinar,

I have created a new workflow and I notice that folders without spaces are failing to be denied too. I'm using the new x64 version, in all my old workflows the "Deny folders" function it's not working. My storage it's a Avid Nexis shared storage:
In the property "folder": "\\\\NEXPLR\\TESTE\\New_folder",
- NEXPLR it's the Nexis hostname
- TESTE it's a Nexis workspace
- New_folder it's a folder in the TESTE workspace root
- I'm sending files to a folder named New_folder inside the folder \\NEXPLR\TESTE\New_folder

Follows a screen shot of my "About" box and the new workflow (json file).

Ok so you're a bit behind on the versions. Can you please update to the latest 1.0.0.4 bug fix release? The issue was fixed in the 1.0.0.1 bug fix release.

Hi Steinar, problem solved. Thank you!
But I get this warnings from Windows Defender. I hope they are false positives.

Yes, they're false positives. Very common I'm afraid and we struggle with those all the time :-(
