Hello,
I sporadically get an error on the “copy to file” section of my automation that says “Folder does not exist”. But…it does exist. I will go days to weeks without the error and then it will pop up again for a few days. I’m not changing anything at all in the automation or the original file. There’s no point in having it automated if I have to worry about it failing. Anyone else have this issue?
To jrzygrrl:
Thank you for posting in Toad World!
I regret I'm personally having issues reproducing the issue exactly. I could get error messages like "Could not find a part of the path" but not a "Folder does not exist".
To better assist you, we humbly request the following items:

Is your folder on a network drive? If the path is unavailable at the moment Toad checks (right before it runs the job) the job will not run. I have had better luck using DOS batch jobs to copy and move files and use Toad to call those with run program and pass my Toad variable to the batch job. Your problem may be itermittent network problems that may only last seconds but that is all that it may take if it is at the right moment.
