Back-up On Error doesn’t always work?

[RedSoxM3]

6.7.1 Win2K

My back-up on error doesn’t always work. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t. Is this normal? Basically, I grab a file on source event, call a decryption batch script via the batch adapter and decrypt the file. 1 out of 10 times the map fails with a “76” - Failed to put to adapter. So, I used the back-up feature in the IFD to route the failed files to another folder.

Here is the system:

Map(Decrypt2MF.mmc) - Output = NONE

IFD -

Here is the batch Script (decrptACS.bat)
type c:\mercenc.txt | gpg --passphrase-fd --decrypt %1

And here is the error on Launcher when it intermittently failes:

*** ERROR:

So, the back-up feature works great when I get an error....but SOMETIMES it just errors and leaves the file in the trigger directory. Any ideas on why this just intermittently works? I'm getting tired of babysitting.

And on a side note, I can not reporduce this problem in Development. It only happens in production and they are identical! I beleive the root of the problem (76 erros) is gnupg...we are on version 1.0. However, in the meantime, I was hoping this back-up thing would work.

Since the map has a 9999 ms delay, I suspect you are having a problem with your network or large files. You could be double triggering on the input file.

I set it to 9999 because of exactly what you said....large file and newtork problems due to load during the day.

That alleviated the "source not available" problems, but I still get the "76" errors.

Question, the map (Decrypt2MF.mmc) is output = None.

I changed it to output = input. It still works. Would this force it to use the retries?

Turn on adapter trace and map audit log.
