December 14, 200718 yr How does one get ESS data into an FM table, by using a server schedule? FM can import ESS data , when a script is run from a client. This can be done ssh/FM9adv/open remote/fmnet, or ssh/rdc/TS/FM9/OR. The import step is not web compatible so the server can’t do it; even though the former approaches work. I find this incongruous, but then I know zip about the bts logic. My revised approach is to push the data from the ESS table into FileMaker via an acrr rel. This doesn’t work either. A very simple test setup: 2 tables: A. TestESS (MySQL) B. testFM the script: test - push ESS Go to Layout [ “testESS - table” (TestESS) ] Show All Records Go to Record/Request/Page [ First ] Set Field [ TestFM_acrr::Line; TestESS::line ] no web incompatible steps. run from a client , no problem run script from FMS9 (9.0.2.151) as schedule, it fails. result script error check Server Help; logs; control panels/admin tools/event viewer/ application check log: schedule completed; Event 644 last scripting error 101 event 645: error 101... at set field event 645: error 101 at... go to record search FMS9 Help , Event log, no results for actual errors (eg error 101) the script steps are web compatible the db is on the server (the ESS db is not) a further test, disable the go to records step this comes first...) script error, error 101 at set field 2 questions; 1. why might this be occurring? 2. HOW do I get a server schedule, to get data out of an ESS table, and into a FileMaker table?
