Modify Text File - not working in IBM WebSphere path
I'm deploying an application into IBM WebSphere on Windows Server 2008 R2.
After the application is deployed, I call action Modify Text File to update a text file. The text file does not get updated. Below is the error.
The same file will update shorter path, like C:\temp\MyFileName.properties
I added a sleep/delay action after the deployment to make sure the MyFileName.properties is present before the action Modify Text File starts.
I tried putting quotes around the path unsuccessfully. I also tried the action to get the 8.3 short name, but that does not work on Win2008R2.
The full path is 154 characters including spaces. Is there a path length limitation?
Error:
Modify Text File - Single File: D:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\installedApps\MyMachineNameNode01Cell
\MyAppName.ear\MyAppName.war\WEB-INF\classes\MyFileName.properties
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - Unable to locate ASCII text file to be manipulated. Deferring...
