Hi,
I get the following error while trying to run a report printing the output to a file :

Session Description Message
---------- -------------------------- -----------
ttstpconv Converison to Wordp cannot create file murat
ttstpconv Converison to Wordp Conversion cancelled


btw it creates the file murat but the status of the job is getting "runtime error"...any comments would be appreciated...

Did you check the file permissions? If the file already exists, then it may be lacking write permissions so that ttstpconv cannot overwrite it.

I am using this old thread to keep the topic together.

In our case, the job is set up to write to /dev/null.

It failed yesterday with the messages as follows:


Session Description Message
--------- ------------------------ -------------------------
ttstpconv Conversion to Wordprocessor Cannot open file (error -2)
ttstpconv Conversion to Wordprocessor Conversion canceled


I have checked that the device /dev/null has read-write for everyone, as it should.

I also checked if there was any disk space issue with the $BSE/tmp folder - there is enough space to be able to create the output file. [I am not sure, but I believe it should have give a disk full message, in case it did get filled up - at least there should been the remnant of the output file after the failure. Also, many other jobs would have started to fail.]

It seems like the session 'lost' the connection with the file it created in $BSE/tmp for some reasons.


Any hint about how to resolve this will be appreciated.
