Data Mapper Error

When trying to run a workflow with a Data Mapper built to use an MS Access Database, I am receiving the following error:

There was an error running the data mapping process caused by IOException: Unsupported newer version: 32 (SRV000012)

I get no errors in the Connect Designer, but in the workflow when executing it I do.

Can you double check that the Designer and Workflow have matching versions?

For instance, if you are running Connect Designer 1.7.1, the Workflow must be on v8.7.1

Likewise, if you are running Connect Designer v1.6.1, the Workflow must be on v8.6.1

That was the first thing I thought of…

I am running:

Designer Version: 1.7.1.44448

Workflow Version: 8.7.1.12148

Can you open your data mapper and template in the Designer tool, using the data file in question and try to generate a proof print? It’s possible you may need to convert the datamapper and template to the latest version first. Then if proof print runs without error, resend the data mapper and template to workflow and try running again.

Failing that, please open a Technical Support ticket and send your data mapper, sample data file and workflow for further investigation.

I built the mapper and template in 1.7.1.44448, so no conversion necessary. Proof Print generated the entire tables worth of output without issue.

I have to be honest. I spent a bit of time searching for how to use an Access .mdb as data in a PPC workflow and found little. But, I tend to be more of a try it and when it doesnt work, figure it out instead of reading first kind of guy.

I tried every thing I could think of to get this working. I was just about to open the ticket and I thought, OK try one more thing… I added a Load External File pulling in the .mdb file as the active data file just before the Execute Data Mapping.

And it worked. no error…

I am a little surprised (and confused) that having the .mdb as the active data file is how it works.

I need to try an ODBC connection next.
