    Hello - I need to find the line count for a text file process flow.

     

    I used the syscommand node and used the following command,

     

    wc -l filename.txt.

     

    I tried the execution mode as run cmd.exe and automatic. We are on Windows.

     

    It fails with following error..

     Executing System Command Activity SysCommand9810...
    Full system command: cmd.exe /C wc -l  D:\Interface\Srini.TXT
    Command output (combined): 'wc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.
    Command error output: 'wc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.
    SysCommand9810_errorOutput = 'wc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.

      Srini,

       

      You need to install wc.exe on the Landmark server and provide the full path to it in the SysCommand node.  On our server that would be

      d:\Cygwin64\bin\wc -l

        I don't have time to check but I bet the data iterator node would be able to return a record count from a file.

            I just checked and data iterator should be able to return what you need.

            Add data iterator node
            Input method = file
            Input file = unc path to the file
            Parse by = line

            Use "nodename_recordNumber" after the node and it gives the lines in the file.
