Starting to get privilege error

January 23, 20205 yr

I have script which calls the contents of a cell

eg set Proj_name to get cell "Project»DATA::project folder name" of current record

It has been working fine recently but today I noticed it stopped working. if I run the scriptn directly in AppleScript I get "FileMaker Pro Advanced got an error: A privilege violation occurred."

I have Allow Apple event and Active X turned on in extended Privileges.

Recent events have been Catalina upgrade and moved the files to filemaker cloud but the script has worked since and I get an error on a local file too.

Any ideas?

Having the same problem here. Works OK on Mojave but fails on Big Sur. It hangs FM. I have Allow Apple event and Active X turned on in extended Privileges.

I have a bunch of Applescripts running dozens of processes and some seem to work and other just hang. Cant find a common denominator as yet but sure it might be a privileges issue in Big Sur and it seems with Catalina which you're running Aussie John.
